Knievel's Guitar Hero Cabinet
Knievel:
If you have played Guitar Hero you may understand this project, if you haven't you may not...and are REALLY missing out.
My friends and I grew up in the peak of the 80's Metal era and GH definitely caters to our generation. As a result this game series quickly left everything else in my arcade room collecting dust. I knew I had to take it to the next level..but how?
After some thought (and a few shots of JD) I decided there was only one thing to do...build a cabinet around it!
And here is the result. It's a takeoff of one of the most iconic symbols of Heavy Metal...the mighty Marshall Stack >:D
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. 8)

Knievel,
Please don't take this the wrong way, but... I love you.
Ha. Seriously. Awesome idea. I have been hooked on GH and this is a great idea.
The portability is a nice touch as well. I just went to a party this past weekend, and had to lug the xbox, speakers and projector. :)
