You think our beautiful lunchbox's form factor remains unique?
That's over, looks like it's starting to get adopted by others.

Indeed!

I am so tempted to buy that amp because of the sounds Pete is getting in that video and I admit thinking about how it would look next to the KPA was a tiny part of the appeal. The problem is I have tweaked a couple of :13 FTR37 profiles and I'm nailing those sounds so closely that I'm afraid it would actually be a big disappointment to buy it, set it up, plug in and then realize I have spent near $1000 for absolutely nothing new or extra in my arsenal except a pretty companion for my lunchbox!

Curse you Kemper for saving me money I want to burn on gear!

seams to be a nice amp!

Yeah, from listening the demos available it's a nice piece of gear. Sounds great.
But nowadays, with the KPA and its versatility on the market, 1,000 bucks for a small tube amp seem to be a bit to much, imho.

Cheers,
Martin

I would have been all over this pre-Kemper.

Yeah, the bent metal shell seems to be getting popular:

But Kemper wasn't the 1st. From May 2010:

There are probably earlier examples.
