Help me decide

[JJ Rodriguez]

You've probably heard me talking about the Anvil preamp kit I ordered, well it finally arrived. I just have to drill the chassis and get it powder coated, luckily I know a guy.

Can't really decide on a color for the faceplate/backplate, I was thinking maybe the pinkish purple since it's a modified SLO preamp as kind of a nod to the old Soldano units, but neon green or yellow could be cool too.

And before anyone suggests it, snakeskin would be bad ass but I'm not going to hydro dip the thing

Neon Yellow or gtfo. Also because you will have leftover paint and I like Neon yellow.

[JJ Rodriguez]

Well powder coating, so only good if you have something metal that you want coated

[playstopause]

Neon yellow all the way!

[Chris]

Powdercoat it to match whichever neon RG550 you get to go with it.

If you know someone with a laser cutter get it anodized then etch the labelling in

Steel chassis, unfortunately can't anodize it That would make it so much simpler.

Ah yeah. White + black lettering would look sleek

So far Noodles is winning. I'm kind of scared to think what kind of coating Noodles would leave on it.... but also kind of intrigued.

Salt.

Well powder coat is rated for like a thousand hours of salt spray, that's a lotta loads he'd have to fire at it. I wonder if he'd be up for the task?

Unrelated: I initially read this thread title as "Help me Deicide".

[JJ Rodriguez]

I actually almost typed that when starting the thread

And I read it as that every time I see it. My initial instinct was to post: "If you're over the age of 33 and still haven't killed yourself, it's too late!"
