In the US, $2K will buy a pretty nice vintage Princeton Reverb.

And that's a HELLUVA LOT MORE AMP than any Blues Junior, even with a distressed-oak cabinet and a meaningless COA!

:P

"80 Proof" refers to the bourbon that once lapped against the interior of the kegs used for the enclosure before their staves were re-purposed and recycled into amp cabinets.

A liquor designated as 80 proof contains 40% alcohol by volume.

You really need to get out more.

:lol:

I actually like the look and the concept. It just must have been quite the bong they were smoking right before deciding this is a $2000+ amp.
