Thanks for the link. I've seen it before. Looked for lots of videos and samples to try and be impressed. Good for having a look at equipment that channel on youtube.

I'm confused about a few things.

Firstly, is his guitar out of tune on that video?
To me as an amp it doesn't make me smile and go "Wow" like the Orange one did. It seems about the same sound quality as my old solid state Fender Princeton, but 3x the price! If you love it and you're happy that's the main thing. I wonder if people (generally speaking) think, "Well, it's Fender and it's a tube amp, it must be good." I mean, it'd be great for resale, which is a selling point. The standards are high here, we're talking about A$1500.

This one seems to be in a whole better class (and more expensive tho'). I'd want this quality for $1,500, but it's over $3,000.

I'd love to see a video or hear you with yours though Doug. Of that series (Pro Jnr, Blues Jnr, HotRod and Deville), the Blues Jnr Tweed is my favourite, but I'm still going for that H & K one, because it seems to go from Fender to Marshall! Heeeeell man, even got a twang switch!
