I wonder if it is meant to be played? I did however notice that it has a "burst into flames switch". I wonder if that would explain the price?

I saw this one before it's been around a while and to be honest hasn't got very good reviews....these sort of amps are going to dry up real soon...China just announced the biggest layoff of a paid workforce in human history.............

Musicstore in Germany sells 50W tube amps (combo) for about �250, but without decent speakers. I suppose it's better to get yourself a decent secondhand amp.

EDIT: it's only 30W. This is the link: http://www.musicstore.de/de_DE/EUR/Fame-Eco-Line-VS30-Combo-/art-GIT0010483-000

The Peavey Windsor doesn't have great reviews BUT people have found a way to make the amp sound great - They bypass the preamp buy going through the "power amp in" and is it allows the amp to stay clean and not get muddy. Plus I think alot of the people buying the amp don't realize that a one channel amp goes from clean to dirty when the volume increases.

the "light on fire" probably produces a lovely smell with all that MDF they use. Furthermore, the Chinese MDF is probably ground up political prisoners. Organic!
