This is a good point. $1500 is about cost on a 100 watt Orange direct from Orange USA with an employee discount.

I don't doubt it. I remember when these amps were only going for maybe $1000 or a little bit more 5 or so years ago.

Yeah it's a little absurd. Great amps, though.

The Model T just never sounded that good to me, it was just my first real tube amp so I thought it would be an end-all be all, NOPE.

Wait, I take that back I had a couple of newer Fender tube amps and a half functional V-4 before the Model T, but whatever.
