They sounded horrible, but I always thought that the old Kustom "tuck-and-roll" amps looked kinda nifty...

Sticking with the Marshall theme, I always thought redheads looked incredibly sexy

One of the sharpest looking amps IMO:



Obviously, I also love the looks of the KranK amps.

Re: Sexiest amp of all time - What's your pick ?

I like the old fender tweed amp style. But I always will have a soft spot for the marshall look. That white logo on the black cloth is the sweetest. When I got my first marshall I couldn't stop looking at it. Loud as all hell and pure heaven at that time.

Sorry man, maybe we can start another thread where we argue over semantics. Fine it IS art. Just trying to say its beautiful.
