How would this amp compare sound wise to all the Fender equivalents in the price range, i.e. Blues Junior, Deluxe/Princeton Reverb RI ?
The AlNiCo speaker seems like a nice ( expensive ) addition, tube rectifier and the design is retro. But with a street price of $800, there must be some catch, i have this feeling that somehow there must be something wrong. Or maybe Ampeg is just very kind with the pricing on these amps. It's got good reviews on HC.
