Uh, not to be dense, but isn't that what the "Let's see your amp" thread is about?

That said, if you just want to see cool amps & cabs, not necessarily ones that belong to us, I'd say lookee here:

Stereo!

Spinning double horn!

Crazy XL horn!

I just built a cabinet for my 3watt tube amp last night. I was going to make something super cool, but in the even of finding free wood I had to do something different, so it looks super typical. I'll post pics sometime, i haven't ordered the speaker so i cant make the speaker baffle yet.

I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier... I used to know a guy who built both beautiful furniture and guitars, and had done some custom work for one of the guys in Guster. One of those custom bits was an amp cabinet... but I mean cabinet as in the kind of furniture, with speakers built into the insides. It was so the Guster guy could have a really nice practice amp in his living room that he could close up so no-one would know it was an amp if he had company over. Really gorgeous stuff. Of course, I don't have photos - the builder showed me pics on his iPhone... I need to see if I can track that guy down again...
