  • Yeh.......But if your guitar cord is running to the Tiny amp in teh box..........then how is anyone gonna be able to hear you with drums & the rest of teh band playing? they will be waaay louder than you & The tiny itsy bitsy marshall. correct? unless i missed something here. Anyone?

  • @97warlock The sounds you make with you mouth need to be made into a microphone. The pros run the tube up their mic stands.

  • @BazzimusPrime disconnect the wires from the internal speaker and solder them to the external speaker you've made

  • 5:16 thats what she said

  • saints row 3

  • Excellent ! Thank you !

  • Did you take the speaker out of the amp, or did you get a small speaker to go in the plunger?

  • THANKS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH I MADE ONE OF THESE PLAYED DAFT PUNKS AROUND THE WORLD WITH IT AND I SOUNDED LIKE DAFT PUNK!I!I!I!I!I!I!I!I!I!I!I!I!I­!II!!II!!I!I!II!II!

  • ...let me get this straight...all the sounds are coming out of the tube and out of your mouth?! that is freaking awesome

  • This kid looks like the kid from malcone in the middle

  • @lilskitcom Sure you can, maybe you have to be careful with volume of the synth. Starting with the volume all the way down and turning it up gently as long as you play to test it, you gonna be just fine.

  • you should put the speaker back in the amp and make a hole in the amp to put the tube through, then put it in a plastic tupperware box.
