These look pretty nice. It is a Deluxe reverb clone with some modern twists in a Princeton reverb shell. They look like they make nice amps.

There are a few clips on youtube that sound good.

Not a new company, they have been making them for a while. If you like the Fender sound it's a great alternative. Much better option than buying a new mass produced Fender.

I've always been a fan of the sound but not so much of fender reissues. These looked like a quality amp to me. I like that it looks like he really pays attention to details.

All combos, no heads.  :(

It looks like they got heads with cabs in all models  :)

Yes, but the point is I already gots all the cabs I want.

It's really odd, but it almost seems like there's some sort of universal law against putting a blackface circuit in a head unless it's either in kit form or costs a zillion dollars more than it should.  :dontknow:

Ahh that makes sense. I don't have any cabs so I was thinking sweet a cab and a head. I wonder why they don't sell just a head. On their website they do but it is the same price as a combo, kinda weird. Good points.

Might be a demand thing. I know from having built a lotta cabinets in the past that size doesn't matter much, cost-wise. Unless you're using exotic woods, the difference in cost for materials between a head and 1x12 or 2x12 combo is negligible. The money is in the labor, which really doesn't change much at all. It's just a box, after all. Doesn't matter if it's 10 inches tall or 22, you have the same joints to cut/finish/fasten together and plywood is cheap.
