As a nobody, I beg to differ with that ad, I (and perhaps other nobodies here would agree) am very happy with monkey coffins and even happier with gorilla size coffins. The bigger the coffin the better :D
What I could really go for is one of those mojo monkey claws that grants wishes, waaayy cool! :homer:

That original quote wasn't from PE the company, it's from one of those "Reader's Designs" segments. The individual designing that issue's particular speaker wrote that paragraph.

Nice coffins, Krunchy, did you get to hear them? Those are the beasties we used to do the amp comparison between a Sansui B5000 and a Bryston 4B. They were actually co-designed by our friend Jack, check out his artwork here (some not-quite-safe-for-work stuff under "Nudes" and "Personal Work" pictures, you've been warned):

A little off topic here but that movie "Dead Man" w/Johnny Depp was one of my favorites.

As to coffins I like them big ole' gorrilla ones. Bigger the better.:D

Hell, I don’t want a “monkey coffin” in my living room either.
That’s way I upgraded to the larger “Gorilla Coffins”.
And so, they have a Zero Wife Acceptance Factor.
Well, I just don't care…:D

from the lattest PE flyer.....:barf:Well, kinda...

Even his solution is "old school" though. Who wants squirrel coffins in their living space? All that stuff should be mounted in walls out of plain sight.

So, monkeys have coffins I guess. Sounds like clever slang for showing oneself aesthetically correct and up in the current blog-speak. And I should be faulted for finding myself unaware in both regards. Trouble with this notion is that I have yet to find bird coffins able to sound anything but toy-like in sound. So if its monkey coffin or monkey sound...

I have stick with the coffins.

MY father asked me what I wanted for my tenth birthday. (1971) "Oh dad, if I could get a couple of piano crates." Well, dad said that no new pianos had come in recently and the older crates had been long trashed in the dumpster.

Well my birthday came and there it was in the driveway... A beautiful new packing crate from a Baldwin upright console piano!!! Dad said it came in just in time!

AND what did little Scotty do with it you ask?

Got the jig saw, hacked a hole in it, mounted a ALtec Bi-Flex 15 in it, wired to my Bogen CHB-100 church tube amp and drove it with my Channel Master Am-Fm 8 track for all ALL the neighbors to hear!!!

No tweeters, no horns. It was PERFECT!!! The perfect Storm!!!

The point is: To some it is coffin, to others it is an enclosed box which hold the magic of life...air!

"Monkey coffin" my ass!

Not little Scotty, anymore...(well?)

ps. Can you find the JBLs in the above float picture? They are inside pink triangled rotating MonkeyCoffin!
