I got a RFQ out for the Black silkscreened plastic pieces (attached photo) and I was wondering if there was any interest from anybody for a replacement for their 700B's. I plan on getting 3 flavors done if I have the interest. I'm talking about the last line of the plastic insert which will say:

1. Laboratory Standard Amplifier
2. Seven Hundred Watts R.M.S
3. WOPL 1000 Watts R.M.S

I wanted to do something crazy like "Phucking Phase Linear 1000" or "WOPL 1000, energize at your own RISK" but each screen is an extra 20 bucks. #1 and #2 will be as close to the factory writing as possible. Included with each piece will be a blue backer like the original, or if requested and you stuck with white LED's, a red backer will also be offered so you can be a little different. Let me know what you guys think, these will probably end up costing about $10-15 each. Small price to pay to get the face of your baby complete.

IDEAS????????

Yeah, replace the 700 watts rms with the WOPL 1000 moniker and I'd be up for 10 or so...

Lenses are being cut and shipped as we speak, should have them to the screener next week. Save your pennies kids... You guys who are putting in your requests will get the good deal. If I have to put some on the bay.... They won't be cheap. Friggin fee's.....

AND, as a precaution, I will only turn over "WOPL 1000 Watts R.M.S" inserts to the known WOPLgangers here on this site. I would hate for somebody to get the hoze if an amp was trying to be passed off by some unscrupulous wanker as a real PL 1000 when it was not. Of course anybody smart would check in here to verify what they were actually buying. Just a precaution. If some outsider wanted to deceive a buyer they would have to spend $500 getting inserts set up like I did.

It's no longer a Phase Linear except for donated looks and tranny

dropped some off some of the polycarbonate faceplate lenses (the middle "Light up thingy's") to the silk screener today. He was iffy on whether the ink would run into the non-painted portion with the writing... We'll see. I have another place in mind too so I may go drop some off there to see if they can accomplish the job... PITA....

This Guy just got fired

This Guy just got fired, his work sucked and I NOW have a professional working on the silk screen. You could see through the paint and the writing was NOT that great. This has not been a cheap endeavor. However, we will have new faceplates next week no matter what I have to pay. I aint stopping till I have plates in hand. The Blue filters are so close to the original color, I could not tell them apart. SWEET

Glad to see your project's still a go. I defiantly want one but was wondering if you can speculate on the cost per. Hoping to prepare myself by knowing ahead of time if it's KD I'll be eating for a week or am I sinking all the way to Top Ramen noodles.
