AXL are also behind the recent incredible value for money VHT brand of hand wired valve amps.

Near boutique vintage amp 'Fenderish' tone,
and better than average component quality & construction for such low cost budget amps.

Now most any low income guitarist in Britain and Europe can afford the kind of amp
that always used to be way above their restricted economic lot in life..

Of course the raving reactionary krinkloids on the USA amp forums
are frothing rabidly at the mouth
at the outrage of a respected American amp maker
selling out his brand name to the 'slave labour exploiting evil dog eating oriental commies'..

but there you go... only to be expected...

VHT Special 6 combo Amp less than 120 quid at Thomann + 10 EUR Delivery..
[www.thomann.de/gb/vht_avsp16_special_6_valve.htm]

Good to go straight out the box..

..and later on you can swap in better quality valves
and maybe a more 'authentic' alnico speaker
and then you'll have a serious vintage tone for much less cash
than any overpriced profiteering big name amp maker's product.
