Dave Chatterson, a 28-year-old guitarist from Kitchener-Waterloo, has created this cool detailed replica of a Fender Princeton Reverb amp using the classic plastic LEGO building bricks. In other words, a creation that will look great together with the LEGO Guitar.

Chatterson’s Lego/Princeton handiwork simply must be seen to be believed. It’s unbelievably detailed—guts and everything. Lego cabinet, grille, handle, fittings, speaker, knobs, switches, jacks, tube chart, reverb tank, power cord and footswitch. It has a removable Lego chassis, for God’s sake, with Lego tubes, wires, transformer, capacitors and stuff. It even has a Lego Fender logo on the front, sort of.

Head over to the official Fender website for more photos of the LEGO Princeton Reverb Amp and an interview with Dave Chatterson.

Thank you for the link, Dave Chatterson!

I’m not sure how many keychains have been covered here at GeekAlerts, but if could only choose one, it would be this beautiful piece of art.

Each of these unique bricks is precisely machined on a computer controlled mill. Each brick comes with a removable eyebolt fitted with a key ring. You can use the brick as a keychain or build it into your favorite creation. They fit with LEGO® brand bricks!

The Aluminum 2×4 Brick Keychain is created by Bram Lambrecht and available from the BLDesign Web Store for $11.99.

Last week we saw the fun LEGO-Style Correction Tape, and now these playful plastic bricks also serves as a colorful Do-It-Yourself mood light kit.

Features:

• The Light Brightness can be adjusted
• 8×2 Brick x 26 pcs
• 2×1 Brick x 56 pcs
• Light bulb: E14 AC220V 50Hz <25W
• Size: 23.5 x 12 x 12 cm

The DIY Brick Tower Mood Light ($35) is available in four colors options (assorted, blue, yellow & red) over at the Gadget Brando website.

Here’s the latest example of how to use the design of the plastic building bricks from the Danish LEGO company for something completely different.

The bricks are sold in sets of four (red, yellow, green and blue) and measure 6.5 x 3.2 x 2.8 cm. Inside each of them you will find the tape that can be used to correct mistakes during typing or handwriting.

The Brick Correction Tape is available from the Gadget Brando website for $7.

Some of you might remember that we had a Happy Birthday, LEGO post at GeekAlerts back in November, when the Danish company turned 75.

Today it’s 50 years ago since the modern LEGO brick was patented. Over 400 billion of these interlocking bricks have been made since then.
