Thanks!! I bought a new boutique amp!!!

Thanks every one for your help!!!! I was all set to but a victoria amp
I Got recommendations from this site to check out the Louis Electric amp.
I went to a music store and compared side by side : Fuchs combo 30,
Bogner combo, space tone, Victoria and top hat with the Louis electric.
All the amps sounded nice but the Louis Electric was on a whole different level
the tone was so warm and every change you make to the amp really impacts tone. It just seemed like the tone variation and sounds were endless!
The amp has a certain magic that you need to experience for yourself. I have always been searching for a sound have owned and played vintage Hiwatt and fender amps in the past. Have tried the modeling amps etc. I finally have found what I have been looking for!
Thanks again for helping me find the ultimate amp that I would not have know about if it wasn't for you guys!!!

Congrats!

Congradulations!
I predict this will be the first with other Louis amps to follow.
I just picked-up my Gattone on Friday, once again I'm speechless, incredible amp. I'll post a review shortly.

Did you buy a KR12?
Their versatility is unmatched imho. Lou's amps have serious mojo!
