I have another instrument for sale locally. I'll probably still pick up a Swart 5W or older Fender Champ at some point.
I suppose everyone has a different idea of good tone and good fun. I have played enough small tube amps to know that 5w plus 8" speaker can sound great and work at home. That's what I want to have here.
Thanks!

Congrats. Sweet amp. I have a 12w Fender 5e3 Tweed Deluxe head into a 112 Weber speaker and it rips. Tough to get tube breakup without shaking the walls though.
