I just got my Filmore 25 3 days ago and I am loving it.
I have been a boogie player for decades and have owned MKIRI,MKIIc+,MKIII,MKv,heartbreaker, lonestar special.
My current lineup: MKIIc+,Mkv,lonestar special,Filmore 25. Each has its own personality The LoneStar has EL84's, I have EL34's in the MKv, 6L6's in the MKIIc+, and 6v6's in the filmore.
The MkII is 38 years old and is currently back at Boogie getting a once-over and possible re-cap as it is not sounding its best anymore.
I have had a few minor issues with a couple of the amps over the years but boogie has always been great and fixed them (the Lonestar has probably had the most issues, all rectifier tube issues. All better now though).
I wanted the Filmore because I really wanted that fat fender clean sound. I was looking at Princetons but they are not master volume. It is nice not needing to use my Ox.
