5. They're too rich for my blood....
in the $3500 range. They're way more powerful than what I need, anyway.

14. they have a page of recorded clips....
http://www.kometamps.com/sounds.html

lots of versatility and they sound amazing, but for that price, they sure as hell BETTER!!!

I've been thinking of selling my 1966 Bassman (I love it, but the required maintenance of a 40+ year old amp is starting to aggrivate me). One of the guys at Komet has expressed interest in it, as it's probably one of the cleanest blackface Bassmans around. Next time I go in, I'm going to see if he'll consider a swap!

8. Twenty!
Marshall Amplification introduced the JCM900 amplifier in 1990 with knobs going to twenty. Christopher Guest, playing Nigel Tufnel, participated in the marketing for this amplifier; appearing at the publicity party for the product as well as in magazine advertisements. His catch phrase on the print advertising was "That's nine more, innit?". The company also manufactures faceplates for all of its amplifiers with settings to eleven.<5>

Everyone knows you get the best output at 666.
