Hello, I would like to show off the top of my amp and replace the top half (which now is black) with a clear top (or translucent...that would work just as well) and stick some blue leds in there for some show and some glow. Anyway, the case is a serpac A-27-9v. Does this case come in a clear or translucent color??

Heres a pic of the amp:

thanks!

It doesn't look like you can get the enclosure in a translucent color. It does look like you may be able to get the panel in clear though.

Thanks JMT,

however, I am disappointed that it doesn't come in a full case clear where i can use the top...arg i guess my glowing will have to do with only one panel.

dan,

i had a similar desire to see the innards (i think they look cool) and light them with LEDs. i am looking around for a lucite box for my amp (non-portable)... or will get one custom made. of course i'm in HK where they have little shops that will do that kind of stuff....

If you know the exact dimensions, you should be able to get one made for you at eMachineShop.com. They do work in polycarbonate and acrylic as well as metals, and their CAD sofware will generate a price quote once you have the part designed.

I haven't used them myself...haven't had time for any DIY projects. One day, I hope.

If i have it made, it will prbly me more money that its really worth to me...So im just going to case my next amp in a case that is clear.
