Inside The Krankenstein Awesome! Krank is Coming Back!

[Brandon Breeze]

So I was doing some deep cleaning of some amps today and found this! DIME LIVES!!!

Lots of signatures on components and also a test sheet of different tests, dates, and build signatures etc

Check this out, Tony Krank plans on re-launching Krank amps around July 2015!

I haven't seen or even heard of this. Hope it's from the OEM and not just something someone did on their own. I could contact the guys who used to make Krank I suppose.

That would take a lot of energy for someone to take the amp apart and write on it. I am thinking this was done while being built. You may be onto something.

Agreed, most people wouldnt dare take it apart like I did to clean it up really nice. I did one of my amps and couldnt leave the rest out

I was poking around trying to find a way to contact the guys who made Krank and saw they're relaunching Krank mid 2015! Very excited to see them come back. I've always been a strong advocate for the Krankenstein. It's a monster of an amp, versatile, and a metal monster, especially when paired with its cabinet.

Heres the response I received:

"Yes the amp builders wrote all kinds of crazy stuff inside the chassis. Dime was loved by all of us at Krank. Thanks TD"

Had a very early rev 1, modified it a hair and added MM output transformer. The thing slayed. Palyed it for five years. Miss it.
