Using an old bin of Lego bricks that hadn’t been touched in 15 years, Dave Chatterson constructed this Lego amplifier—a replica of a Fender Princeton Reverb amp—in under a week.
Just imagine, if everything that used transistors today was actually powered by beautiful vacuum tubes of old. Control yourselves, steampunkers, this 1942 RCA doc “Electrons on Parade” may blow your vintage thought fuses.
If you need to plug in your guitar to an amp, then chances are that you aren’t some hippie activist—so you’ll be able to appreciate this Pistol Instrument Cable.
