Any guitarist who has had an amp and turned it all the way to 10 wishing it would go to 11!!! Van Halen, Dimebag Darrell, Angus Young, Me!!! Amps such as Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier, Bogner Uberschall, ENGL Fireball, EVH 5150, Krank Krankenstein+, Soldano SLO 100, Peavey 6505, Bugera 6262

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
