Anyone knows Pure Tone Amps?

I'm currently gasing Pure Tone Amps, this greek guy designs beautiful guitar and bass full tube amps that are less than 10 kg.

He also makes a tube preamp I'd like @scubaduba to review. It is affordable for it's features set (580 €). Since it's hand may and built to order I'm sure you can ask for custom options.

Anybody knows about him?

I originally saw the Offset Bass Amp with Gregor Fris on his Bass The World channel. Was blown away, but wasn’t in position to purchase yet, so I contacted the owner, Michalis Serpetsidakis.
He is brilliant and so personable! He was in process of making his all tube pre-amp: The Fabbrica (with the tubes on top, as shown above) and the Amphibious (enclosed tubes and NOT actually amphibious!!)
I purchased The Fabbrica and use it live and in recording with bass. It adds so much tone, harmonics, richness, enhancing the instrument not altering it.
The eq is great especially using the “Pure” switch. The best switch I say is“Entisis” and it is THE switch!!! I rarely turn it off!
