Frankly, I've been gigging with a '65 Univox Deluxe Reverb clone that I bought for $200. Great cheap amp!

Not my ad but it's this: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/msg/2866959438.html

I'm going to be doing a few pedal demos, and I'll link on this thread. It's a great amp, awesome tube driven tremolo too. I just wish it had more headroom...

Mellowtone Jazzychan and NAO The Roar. I don't do many demos, so the camera location sucks. But check 'em out.
