Thanks, no real plans, just kinda went with the flow.

Most items from ebay. 20w mini amps are 10-15$ new, speakers Jensen mod8's, Line 6 pocket pod used, pizza grills new, SLA battery 18$ new, wine crate local store free. I'll post a demo vid when I get a chance.

I'd like that

I like it, I have a big wine box I've been trying to decide what to do with. I hadn't considered an amp but that might be the best choice being as I'm not really interested in a bass (the other idea).

Thanks Ross, I'm sure you will enjoy it. I also added a speaker jack so it can act as a column. That little LM386 is awesome through it!!
