Twelfth Doctor's Electric Guitar & Amp

[The14thDr]

Thanks Senseidale!! This will be a fantastic resource for my 'prop' build.

Kind regards, The14thDr

Yep, it's a favorite for the beeb! It is literally right next to the studios, I highly recommend a visit to both the experiance and the cafe!

Old thread I know, but thought I could contribute. Everyone here has done great work identifying the guitars and amp, but no one has identified the guitar strap used. So I made an attempt and here's my best guess.



As you can see, the entire strap is black save for a small diamond shaped logo.



And here is my contender. Brand name is Rotosound.

It's difficult to fully see the logo in the still, and this is the best look we ever get of it.

Thoughts?

Just a Couple pics to show off the one I own, now with screen acurate strap (I hope)



Now all I need is the amp

If you follow the prop database link at the top of the topic it will lead you to Deck5's amazing 3D render of the modded amp. He'd probably be able to advise with regard to what it would take to mod the original amp to look like the Magpie version.

This is actually the amp in question


It has the 5 rotary knobs on the top left and the 3 regular knobs on the right.



and one of my renders

Always outstanding renders Rob, even for the simplistic things.

Another Bit of Info. As-well as the Fender Amp that's already been identified, there was also another Amp Featured, this one was seen in "Twice Upon a Time"
(I meant to discuss this ages ago but couldn't find a decent image until now)



the top part seems to be a Vox AC15C1 (i counted the lattice spacing's and this seemed the best match). Vox logo replaced by a magpie logo, and some extra greeblies and do-dads added to the top and side.

The bottom part is a bass speaker, but so far I've not found an exact match. Also a magpie logo added but that appears to be the only change that can be confirmed without ID-ing the Unit

[Rassilons Rod]

Yes its definitely an extension cab of some description, not another amp.

The speakers, at a guess, look to be 10 or 12 inch, normal for guitar cabs - so not necessarily bass speakers.

Yup, that's the correct one. I have that strap for mine and Peter confirmed it was the correct one for me when he was playing my guitar.

For Hell Bent, we needed a new guitar for Peter - can't remember why. I remember he wanted something different to his Yamaha from UTL, but it had to have a tremolo. As the only person on the team who knew guitars I remembered he used to play a Gibson SG in The Dreamboys, so I got to pitch the Epiphone version of that with an aftermarket Bigbsy attachment.
