I've been thinking for a while about modding my 6505+. Not internally (although i do plan on getting deluxe and/or platinum mod from voodoo, so feel free to give your opinion on that idea 
) but externally, cosmetically. I don't want to change any of big stuff, just probably the faceplate. I know their have been a couple of other threads out there, such as a few on Harmony Central and one or two on Seven String, but they really did not have what I was looking for. I have had my 6505+ for a while now, and have decided that I love it too much to continue to let it be extremely boring looking on stage. I plan on changing the grill and faceplate on the amp. The grill I am still thinking about, might make it a different color, idk, so feel free to give your suggestions on the grill. My idea was to have black chrome, with the peavey logo and made in america and 6505+ logo still on their, but etched through the chrome, so that you can only see it when the LED's are on, and they shine through it, as well as my band's logo. Maybe some LED's just in front of the black chrome faceplate between the grill (not sure if this is possible, idk how much room is there), facing up and just kind of accentuating the black chrome. Possibly with a switch to change the color of that LED in between songs, for different feels, but that might just be a little excessive 
. Anyways, my question is, first off, how damn cool would that black chrome faceplate be, right? Secondly, where would I go about getting this sort of metalwork done. Thirdly, how expensive would it be? Fourthly (is that a word?), how challenging would it be to install this? Fifthly, is there any kind of risk to my amp's tone whatsoever (pretty sure not, but I thought I'd ask, just incase). And also, how would I get power to the LED's, would I take from the amp's power, or have to plug in two lugs every time? and would this drain my amp's max volume if I sapped out of it's power? Etc... Let me know what you think, and sorry for using up approximately all 60,000 allowed characters. Btw, currently I have very little money, but I could acquire some if I needed in a month or two. Thanks! I realize I have posted this twice by accuser, so please respond to this one, an not the older thread.
