    I think that Classic 5 amp would look cool in the Pitbull colours, but with the Tweed pattern.

    Nice selection of pedals you have there too.


    Hope the testing goes well mate.


    Here's a thought, what about getting a little 5 Watt Valve amp custom-designed and manufactured for Pitbull Guitars?
    Yep, that's what we are thinking, in PBG colours and even with our own Mods... an extra switch, another knob... options are endless.

    and yes, under $300 is the range I'm looking at... $250 would be spot on.
    Cheers,

    Adam

    I agree, $250.00 sounds like the right price, considering that most vintage 5 Watt amps, such as a Fender Champ in good condition, are worth quite a bit of money these days, I've heard of them easily going for a couple of grand, which is surprising since they actually don't contain all that much in the way of electronic parts, I've been thinking of building myself a Fender Champ, I've got two of the valves I need for it, so I could end up building one next year.
