Have you been jumping around the shop windmilling and pretending to be Pete Townshend?

I would!

I´m looking forward to trying one of these. A high-gain Hiwatt should be pretty devastating!

Cool, I just checked out the Hiwatt website... apparently Neal Schon is endorsing them now.

Absolutely killer dirty rhythm tones out of those!

I've been wanting to check em out as well but was curious about price. I saw this GP article with MSRPs http://www.guitarplayer.com/story.asp?storyCode=16811 but online prices seem to be much higher. If you don't mind how much $$$ was yours and does it have the loop?

[GodOfRhythm]

That is one good amp!

Check Dave Murrays rig - circa 1980

Some friends of mine just got their store incorporated into one of Sweden´s biggest chains, and they asked me if there´s anything in particular I´d like to see on the floor now that there´s a boatload of stuff coming in during the next few weeks. I picked out five Jackson Pro´s, the Vox AC50 Classic Plus and the Hiwatt as seen above for them. Full report on the amps hopefully coming next week, once they´ve come in.

They retail out at about 3 grand for the half stack...
