Vintage Amp stand / system
Thought vintage fans might be interested in my second system...I built the whole thing around this giant sized vintage amp stand.
Sorry for the cheesy phone pic.

Re: Vintage Amp stand / system

Ha! Yeah, let's see the main system. No controversy, just miscommunication. Let's see some green goodies! Originally Posted by kev313
