Me thinks you were shooting an IED under the amp? Nice shooting regardless.

No way. It is a store bought explosive (tannerite) that I had inside the amp. Its made of ammonium nitrate and aluminum powder. When hit with a projectile moving over 2000 feet per second it explodes.

So? Did the mod work? How does it sound now compared to before you upgraded it?

The only way to know is to contact the great Esteban and see if he will do a demo. Maybe he can use it in his next infomercial!  :P

Ok so not improvised. Guns, explosives, sounds like my kinda day.

Yep ;D  I'm going back tomorrow with a 2 pound load of tannerite. 4 times bigger than the amp explosion. :o

Any ideas what I should blow up with the two pounder?

Almost all of the stuff I blow up is donated my music shops or saved from their dumpster.

Well....... I detonated the 2 pound charge yesterday and it was heard over 5 miles away. The gun club president was at a gas station in the nearby town and drove over to see what happened. He thought someone's gun exploded or someone was using dynamite.
