(b) Yeah )
On some of the models I'd say the sound is maybe a little bit generic. But I'd still say even those ones sound "good". And some of them sound great (if a little noisy sometimes). No idea on how well they're built, of course, but as weasel says, the sound's there. In my opinion, anyway.
^ Didn't some of the 80s models have a problem with the tube sockets? I seem to remember someone on another forum saying that. The AOR, maybe?

When you say "ongoing", do you mean even with current models?
Possibly, I've only tried them in shops, without pedals (the more generic-sounding ones, I mean- I have a GH50L which sounds very good IMO). Those ones also tended to have the more, er, economical stock speakers so that probably wasn't helping, either.
They also do, in my opinion, the best sounding clean amp there is - the lionheart l50h. 5xel34s (!) running is something that is probably closer to class a than a regular class a amp.

Actually the main reason is probably collection only. I don't keep too close of an eye on ebay prices, but that's the one thing that really seems to keep prices way down.
