Marshall Guv'nor, or substitute.

I've played through my friend's Guv'nor and love it, but those things are damn hard to find, and damned expensive. Do you guys know of anything comparable?

And I'm sure the newer Guv'nors are going to be brought up, but I don't like the way they look. Call me silly.

It's my understanding that the Black Box models are much better for bass, but I did not know there was both Korean and England models of the Black Box Gov'nor
