Marshall Fridge



From the main stage to the man cave, the Marshall Fridge was born to rock. Featuring authentic Marshall Amp parts including logos, fret cloth, and a brass-finished faceplate featuring Jim Marshall’s signature, the ultimate combination of rock and refrigeration is finally here.




The Marshall Fridge is a unique and innovative product that brings rock and roll history down from the stage and into the homes of fans around the world. Combining the iconic look of the Marshall guitar amplifier with the practicality of a bar fridge, the Marshall Fridge maintains the same commitment to quality and  dedication to cool that Jim Marshall, the Father of Loud, established half a century ago when he created his first signature amp.
 
It’s a must-have piece of rock and roll history and one that music aficionados will be proud to showcase in their homes, caves, altars, dens, garages or wherever else they like to relax with a cold drink.

The fine detail on the fridge is synonymous with Marshall’s high quality workmanship. Complete with the genuine Marshall logo, infamous woven black fret cloth, Jim Marshall’s signature and control knobs that go to 11, the Marshall Fridge represents only the second time in history that the legendary brand has endowed its logo to something other than an Amplifier.

iPhone Pepper Spray Case







WHAT IS SPRAYTECT?

Spraytect™ is a protective case for a smartphone a removable pepper spray cartridge attached to the back of the iphone case. It’s convenient and readily accessible so you’re protected anywhere and anytime.

THE SPRAYTECT STORY

After an exhaustive search for personal protection devices for his college bound daughter, Scott McPherson was disheartened. There were no easy-to-carry or socially acceptable options available in the marketplace. There were many pepper sprays and other various safety devices for her backpack, but none that were easily accessible. Then the dots were connected. Most co-eds don’t go anywhere without their smartphone so the optimal solution was to combine her phone and a safety device.

From there, Spraytect was born.
