Knievel’s Guitar Hero “Arcade” Cabinet

October 14th, 2007 - Posted by: Jeff Rivera in Cool Stuff, PlayStation 2

For those that have been sucked into the Guitar Hero phenomenon, they know that louder is better. Brad, of Knievel Kustoms has created his latest masterpiece in a long line of inspirational projects and has shown them off at the BYOAC forums. Take a look at what he’s built as an homage to one of gaming’s hottest franchises. More details follow the pics.

In his own words, Knievel describes the make up of this Marshall stack inspired bit of awesomeness:

The cabinet is actually 3 cabinets that can be separated for transporting, if there’s a better party somewhere.

The 3 are..

The Bottom -houses the heavy-hittin’ Logitech Z2300 Sub and my PS2 with all the Guitar Hero titles loaded on the HD


The Center -is the 27″ flat-screen Toshiba CRT TV


The Head -has the Logitech L/R speakers and a backlit GH marquee

Most of the parts used are actual Marshall pieces purchased from an online Amp Parts store.

Now if you’ll excuse me.. I’ve got some shreddin’ to do.

    Hi! i just noticed that this was a perfect oportunity to pimp my blog! lolz

    not really, you did a real fine job, i love the way you also got the “look” for the wood on the side of the amps. I’m not sure what it’s called, but it’s that black, leathery looking finish that gives it that extra awesome.

    Great job! would post again A++++
