Those Little Bastard amps are pretty great - I cant imagine this not being so!

You're really gonna have to amaze JimmyM to pull him away from Ampeg, though!

If I could get something like this for $500 or so used I might be tempted. If I was going to spend crazy cash on an all tube head it would be on something lite like a VB-3.

Looks pretty nice, would certainly be worth a listen if in the all tube market.

This thing weighs in at over 70 pounds! And it almost seems that they are bragging about it!

Ha, Ha! I guess the 300watt all tube ampegs are pretty close in weight

My back hurts just looking at it

My Guess: JimmyM ain't going anywhere!

Uhhh...idk how well these are gonna stack up against the new Fender tube heads. Two wattage options, great tone with two channels, AND under $2k. My next tube head was going to be an SVT-2 Pro, but now I'm snagging a Fender Super Bassman when I finish my degree =)

It is UK made and it's stocked with six KT-88's. Power two ECC82's, two ECC83's and one ECC90 pre amp tubes.

Looks awesome but the high end ashdown stuff tends to be ridiculously priced.
