Neat looking amps...

Kinda neat, but makes me think that Fender is having an identity crisis... Are they building Valco's now? Hard to tell because they didn't even put their name on them. :dontknow:

I like Valco designs ( to a point) and those mickey mouse amps sure aren't like the Valco designs I've built :icon_biggrin: And the 400 buck price isn't too impressive either......

Chinese crap to be sure but I bet they'll sell like hotcakes.As a Fender warrnaty tech they will be dropping like flies.So when the first batch comes back I'll keep a few shells for myself and build some real amps inside.PC board crap!
