Default Sleeper Guitar Amps

I was just curious if anyone has had any great experiences with great amps that no one knows about.

My Fender Bronco I snagged for $175 has been awesome for me.

The Traynor 40 watt tube amp that I paid less than $500 for kicks some major butt.

My cousin owns a little Hughes & Kettner solid state. It's scary in the right situations. I'd love to try out some of their big tube stuff, but it's pretty pricey.
Might be worth it though.

I snagged this Crate Stealth 50 the other day for $200 at the pawn shop. It appearantly was a design by some big deal amp designer dude who has his own boutique thing happening nowadays.
Anyhow, 4 x6V6, 3 x 12AX7, 1x 12" and multi high gain design. Put the parts mojo to it and that thing can ring your bell like that one British amp three times its size.

Was it This guy! Obeid Khan
He started reason amps with another guy a while back.
He used to be a design engineer for crate amplification.
I work for a company part time with another design engineer from Crate also.
His name is Carlos Bedoya He designed the little v 30 tube amp.
Were all St Louis dudes.
