This is absolutely the sweetest little amp I have ever heard and perhaps one of the best kept secrets in the music world.
It' a 20 watt, 2 channel tube amp with a closed back and a HUGE, wide-open sound.
They retail for $749 but I managed to get one on Blow Out from MF for $399 delivered!

The clean sound is amazing and breaks up beautifully when you push it. Very smooth and compressed. The OD channel has the creamiest drive I've ever heard in a small combo amp. It doesn't get all bizzy buzz buzz like most little amps do. Just BIG FAT screaming tones. I haven't had it in a band environment yet so I'll reserve further comment til then. The initial impression is excellent. Even if it turns out to be the best home amp ever made, I'll go with that and it's worth it!

Congrats on such a great deal. That's almost 50% off, not bad at all.
