Yeah, I don't know anything about Mesa Boogie amps.
they make me think of terrible nu-metal bands and Creed, which is unfortunate because they're not bad amps.

As a Bass-amp I have the Bass 400+ it is mindblowing..
But I think Mesa is just a little over my budget when I look at it now..

I'd snag one of those new Mesa lunchbox ones without a second thought if I was in the market.

Problem for me is, I would need a cab with it, we travel with a noise-orchestra of 10-15 people and most of the time there are no cabs available, so combo's are more ideal..

Unfortunately he didn't have any small tube amps left, only some roland cube modeling-stuff which I don't like.. But he would renovate his shop and will have some Vox AC-4's and some other amps in when he's re-opening.. I am most intereste in an AC-4^^

Those Valvetrain amps look awesome. Wish I could try them in person somewhere. Seems like they'd be better quality than the new Fender stuff, too..

Yeah that's the problem with those boutique amps, if I want to try one, I have to drive more than 1000 kilometers

I love mine!(mini) Whenever we get around to recording again, it'll probably be all over our new album.
I CANNOT stand the new Fender Champ (cheaper, TV-styled one). Sounds horrible.
Blues Pro Jr. is good, too, although a bit more than AC4, I think. Different sound a bit.
