Evangelion may not have new anime, TV shows or movies in recent memories, but this mecha anime has quite a cult following. In fact, it is probably still a thing in Japan, since there are actually racing teams in its name in Land of the Rising Sun and also the fact that Japan music instrument supplier Kyoritsu Corporation has recently announced a collaboration with Evangelion on a series of musical instrument accessories. These music gears include collections of products with themes based on the popular anime by Gainax/Tatsunoko Production.

The collections include guitar cabinets, guitar pick set, a bass amp and a series if microfiber guitar cloths. The guitar amp to get the EVA treatment is Polish’s HESU Modern M212 Custom Cabinet that touts dual 12-inch drivers. The choice of guitar cabinet is not surprisingly really because, M212 is one of those guitar amp that supports custom grille that allows image to be on it. Speaking of which, four models will be offered. Among them are two purple models sporting designs based of EVA Unit-01 and the other two are a red and a white cabinet based on the two female lead characters, Shikinami Asuka Langley and Rei Ayanami.
