Snakeskin'd my Recto...fucking pimp!

If that Recto was a chick I'd totally want it on my dick.

Actually, I still want it on my dick...even if it is an amp. :lol:

Call me old fashioned but I still think it is hard to beat a regular silver diamond-plate recto with black tolex. :)
 
Oooh, snakeskin! :)
Snakeskin and white amps are the most gorgeous things on this planet.
 
Glad that went smoothly man!

Can't say I'm the biggest snakeskin fan. I've worked with an SLO100 here that was all snakeskin, as well as a Mark IV and in both cases it was a bit blargh. The pattern is garish and reminds me of the deep south (in a not so good way).

As Dylan said, I think a standard black tolex Recto with the silver tread plate still gets me going. Black tread plate is cool too!
 
yeah mothafuckas, I dare everyone to find a sexier looking recto! :D

It looks very good, and a well done job!!!

Since you asked for it, I think that mine can compete with yours :lol:
I already bought it like this BTW, and the chicken knob has been replaced.

Looks a lot like my Laboga Hector amp!

A bit 80's but at least it stands out amidst all the black and chrome stuff on most amps today :)
 
Wow...that's really ugly.

I know :lol::lol::lol:

The first thing I thought of doing when I saw it on ebay was that if I won the auction the first thing I would do would be to take that skin out. But then as a joke I left it on and now it is an amp with a big charisma :lol:
Nobody cares about the regular blackface model.
"Can I play with the giraffe one?" :lol:
Everybody loves it :)

And I must say that I bought it very cheap for what is worth because it seemed that nobody wanted the amp because of the look.
When I saw that it was Dual rectifier number 106 I didn't care about the looks. :headbang:
