Is this the only other lunchbox amp under a grand with EL34 tubes other than the DSL20? This is gonna hurt 6505mh and invective.MH sales

That's a great price for something like that.

Just one EL34 power tube. How will that affect the sound? I’ve mostly seen pair or quads of tubes.

That looks like shit. Two 12AX7s and one EL34? It’s an EVH branded Blackstar HT.

Why would someone buy this when you snag a used 50-watt non-Iconic for around the same price? I got mine with the EVH 2x12 for $850, which was a crazy deal for sure, but I see the 50-watt heads popping up for $500-$800 regularly.

I did not pay attention to the number of tubes it had lmao (not that I’m in the market for this anyway) but yikes

Three for $850, actual tube amps.
