Another boutique amp: Alessandro. Have never seen or heard one in person, but I've read a bit about them. Their Working Dog series are the "affordable" ones, they are around a grand or so. Their true boutique amps cost more than twice that. Seems like really sweet sounding amps, and they should be, for that price! I'm not buying one - I don't gig enough to justify amps in that price range, but I enjoy hearing some good tones.

Here's a clip of an Alessandro English. My gosh, that is one fine guitar tone, wouldn't you agree?
