WTF $1000?!
You Yanks are lucky fuckers. I hear when Keith Richards isn't melting tweed Fender Twins he uses this range. Anyone wanna ship to me?

Honestly, i played one in GC once at decent volumes and didnt like it all too much. It's a very dark amp in terms of gain. Its like a mark series boogie with a pillow taped to the cabinet. But shit, it was a GC so knows what condition it was in. The youtube clips of it sound great.

I loved the one I played. It was kinda dark, but I like dark.

For that price I'd rather just a SF Twin and a bunch of pedals. $1000 for what it is, is a bit ridiculous IMO.

Odd. The one I played was sterile and tinny.

There are two different versions of this amp, FYI. The first one was tweed/cream colored and sounded great to me. The second one is a blackface that didn't impress me when I played it. I forget what the internal differences are (and I'm too lazy to look it up), but the first version is supposed to be the good one.

I only tried the Blackface one and my impression echoes Aen's.

I played one 3 years ago and didn't like it. My taste may have changed in 3 years IDK
