haha big up to... brampton?

lol very sweet job. you should make a fender blender or one of their large effect pedals! i think that would translate to legos much better than trying to build a Tele!

That is amazing man.  I have showed the pictures of your build to all of my friends.  Everyone loved it.  Grats on the Fender News score.

Dude, the freaking chassis slides out for god's sake!  Lke I said I also missed the Reverb tank the first time. I think I'm gonna go take another look.  Really cool amp.  8)

ROFL!  ;D Thanks!  :)

I guess the Lego factor made it possible for this one to evade your amp ninja radar!  :ph34r:

:P

Nice build, and excellent lead dress.  I bet it sounds better than a reissue.  :D

You actually could make a stompbox that works, out of lego and these:

i got a box o' fender swag yesterday. a couple shirts, patches, and a handful of bumper stickers that look like tweed amp logos (the tweed looks lego-y, too  :D)

the one shirt is gas-pump attendant style, with the "band-master" logo above the left breast pocket with a pilot light graphic beside it  :ph34r:. it's pretty pimp. probably my new favourite shirt, lol.

once it's broken in and doesn't have factory fold creases, i'll maybe do an offset pic for the 'you n your offsets thread' - gotta show off my pimp summer threads! lol

8)

so i guess i didn't get an amp  ::) (not surprised) , but the good part is that i can go back to keeping an eye out for deals on a princeton reverb without having to worry about receiving a RI the next day!  ;D

Fender gave you swag?  That's awesome!  I can't even get a returned email from them...

Nice score.  Funny thing is, if you tried to sell it on eBay, they'd probably get your listing removed - trademark violation and all that.

Wonderful!  :D  I particularly like the chassies with the happy little guys!  ;D  Man, I wish I'd had this kind of LEGO as a kid. Back in the stone-ages there were just square pieces in different sizes...  :( 

Well done! Image

You should have told Fender a sob story about how you can't afford an amp due to some terrible tragedy, so you built an amp out of Legos only to find out that it doesn't work.  ;D

LMFAO.  And again... LMFAO.

Anyone who has the testicular fortitude to front Fender with an email like this is worth a Champ alone.
