Hi,
Have a shot at a trade for one of these possibly.
A search here garners not one hit.
Anyone have experience with one of these?

Are you talking about the Soldano designed amp? If so, it's killer. I picked up the 100 watt version about a year ago. They are absolutely one of the best amps I've ever played through and are real sleepers. Not many people know about them and you can still get them for a decent price. I've watched ebay for them over the past year and they show up very seldom. I've never seen a 50 watt combo, only the head. The 100 watt combo shows up every once in a while and goes anywhere between $350-800.

First of all, it is a great amp, designed by Michael Soldano. Secondly, for those of you who do NOT know yet, Michael Soldano has formed a new company called Jet City Amplification, and these amps are essentially Soldano amps built in China, with Michael spending the bulk of his time overseas to monitor the whole process. He is regulating it closely and spec'ing components to achieve the true Soldano magic and sound, albeit at a more affordable price point.
