I am taking liberty to showing my blondeshell (Tavo`s picture) which is on it`s way to Norway in these days.
It`s a beaty!
I bought myself a Super Sonic 2x12 cab loaded with 2xCelestion V30. This cab is pure pure ROCK!!!
The oxblood grill on the cab will changed to the mathcing grill like the blondeshell.

I am in rock`N`Roll Heaven

Going to Norway today, so by next week we should see some King Kong Amp
But I also need to wait on the mercury transformer. I hope it will arrive next week as well.

did you get the right model? The power supply is going to have to be altered to
accomodate this euro transformer, so I dont even know what the amp will
end up sounding like?
Both you and Pete have bought new amps and instantly destroy them

yepp, ordered the FBLNDB-P/240.
It`s done all the time over here. People are buying US amps and then convert them into euro.

It should sound good, if not, I will return it

haha! If I pull the transmission out of my 06' Dodge Magnum and swap it,
does my warrantee still apply?

You should give it a try

I'm using a step down transformer at the moment and it's working great. It's one Rene has lent me, with a fuse so that'll blow before the amp. Hopefully I'll give it a try out with Rene's cab sometime this week end. I feel sorry for his neighbors!!!

Screw the neighbours!!!!!! I'll give them your new address

Just got back from playing the Blondeshell through Rene's cabinet. What can I say?

UNFRIGGEN BELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tavo you have out done yourself!!!! I played it dry, no effects whatsoever and it was the BOMB!!

Unfortunately I can't find my video, but will do a comparison vid very shortly.

Once again thanks Tavo!!! Everyone else....BUY ONE!!! BEST BANG FOR BUCK!!!

this is paining me...I thought I was on track to get one of these ordered...but...unless I can sell my current amp off . I'll have to pine away until tax time.

ME TOO!!!

The norwegian blondeshell arrived today, what a beaty!
The Mercury magnetic bassman 240V is in custom, not many days now before I can crank this baby!




Even my tonetrunk got upgraded with some nice stickers

awesome rig for sure!

Did you get it in Smooth Blonde Tolex? Tavo, are you still considering doing these in Rough Blonde? Can you take a snapshot of the back? What do you think of the Reverb? Talk to me please

Yes, I got mine in smooth blonde, the Super Sonic 2x12 is rough blonde, but you have to go real close to see the difference.
Below a picture of the back of the beatybeast.
I have not got to try it yet because I am waiting on the MM 240V.

I must hand it to Tavo and Ron, this amp looks amazingly put together! Very professional for a two-man team!

Now I just gotta squeeze one in soon, and try to cop a cabinet also!

Can you tell me what the plank/ F hole switch does in the back to the tone and also, the reverb circuit. I can't see a close up of the front but is it 2 knobs Depth and Verb or what? Sure looks sweet as a bunch of naked betty's in a Tickle Battle Royale.......

The plank/F hole switch for solid state like a 63' but switchable to soft like a 61' for teles n strats(planks).
From left it is the power and Standby switch, then it is the bias and then if you have a cab which is either 4 or 8 ohm you can choose
