In Pop Culture
In the video game Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero II, the amplifiers used by the players are Krank Amplifiers. The following addition to the series also features the amplifier at a later point in the game.
Krank amplifiers are the original amp of choice for Brendon Small as he used them in making the soundtrack for the television show Metalocalypse. His representative characters on the show, lead guitarists Skwisgaar Skwigelf and Toki Wartooth, were prominent users of the Dimebag Darrell model Krankenstein amplifier in the show, although Small used the Krank REVolution to record the dethalbum. Later on, Small switched to the Marshall AmplificationJCM 800 KK.

“Let a man attain the highest and broadest culture that any American has possessed, then let him die by sea-storm, railroad collision, or other accident, and all America will acquiesce that the best thing has happened to him; that, after the education has gone far, such is the expensiveness of America, that the best use to put a fine person to is to drown him to save his board.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
