Does anyone have any experience with this line of amps? Lately, I've been dreaming of a really high quality tube amp and these came into my focus. They have several models that are similar, but have a large price difference. Is any 212 combo worth close to $3k?
I'm not talking about the Fenders that were made during his tenure there.
They make the amps in Burbank, which is less than 5 miles from my office. I guess I could drop in and chat. :)

This is the one I had in mind.

Though the Clubster and Pubster look real good too, for considerably less money.

I have a Fandango and love it to pieces. Some people are put off by the solid state rectifiers but IMO there is absolutely no cause for concern on that score. My Fandango is one of the sweetest amps I've ever owned. She's not for sale at any price.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
