300 clams, was $700.


Might be the ticket for someone in the market for a 5 watt tube amph.

It was there last night...they must've blown-out all of their remaining inventory.

I'm sure that the sales of these were being hurt by all the inexpensive 5-watt tube amphs that have recently come out.

It was still in stock yesterday when I checked. I wish I could have afforded one, but I really don't need another amp.

I think you're right, considering that the GA-5 and Valve Junior were very close, circuit-wise. The VJ uses cheaper parts but the circuits are more alike than they are different.

You can compare them:
