Maybe if Fender and Marshall didn't dilute their stock with cheap and gimmicky shit their new amps would hold more prestige.
£3k for a soggy JCM800 and £2k for a David Dickinson who hid the mids signature. Why not!
I only ever heard one model of the 65 Amps line, which was the Soho HP, but in all honesty it was mediocre beyond belief - so much so that I once borrowed another identical head on appro to see if mine was running ok - it sounded identical. It also had the worst ghost notes I've ever experienced in an amp, which they admitted was a design issue.
The Bad Cat Black Cat is a far, far better amp doing a similar thing.
Actually, are Bad Cat another example? Some of the best amps made today, rarely hyped at all now. Used they are absolute bargains.
I had Ron telling me the amp I'd bought from him didn't come with a foot switch, whilst the guy who built it was cc'd on the thread and disagreeing with him
He also told me that his in-house brand 'Gladius' outplayed a genuine Trainwreck Express (..again, according to its custodian, he'd never plugged into the Express in question) - got some stones, that one!
..and yes, he got dropped by the above builder too
