"Tone Heaven!"
This one is a keeper, for sure.
Sound
In my opinion - the best chime for your dime! The purest AC30 tone I have experienced. Some may complain of no master volume, trem, or reverb, but there is minumum tone-suckage happening here due to their absence. And honestly, as this amp is worn in, it begins to sound even better. Without the MV, you have to either get an attenuator (I use a Z Airbrake) or have a place large enough to turn this amp up. When you do, you experience the magic of this amp. I've found my dream tone machine.
Quality
Look out for loose screws etc. to tighten on the exterior; but other than that, this amp is built like a tank, and heavy as hell. Get some casters on this thing immediately. Or get a nice ATA case with casters.
Value
Excellent value for a hand-wired amp of boutique quality. As far as pure tone, I would pit it against any Matchless, JMI, Dumble etc.
