Travel like a rock musician, complete with classic amplifier i.e. the fantastic AC30, as used by Rory Gallagher, amongst many.

The only difference being, instead of housing a set of real twin cones behind that battered metal grill, there is the usual compartment that opens to reveal your clothes and other travelling possessions. Everything else is replicated: especially the knobs, that you can twirdle mindlessly, whilst waiting for check in.

       Just make sure it's not as heavy as the AC30; they have two handles for a reason.

       I like Paul Smith's work, but that thing is an embarrassment - and it costs a fortune! Nice work if you can get it. (note you can twirdle the knobs on my Vox - and that's important)

       I like it. I initially thought this would be a guitar case that doubled as the amplifier.

       I think the Orange would be cooler, but the AC30 would sound better - gotta have ballsy-sounding clothes.

       Lovely!.
I would include a small amplifier in it powered by a 9v battery for those busking moments.
Come to think of it, I had a guitar amp in a packet of Malboro a few Christmases ago!
