I am really hoping to have the option for the best of both in one amp. That would be perfect!

Yeah, I agree. I hate having to scroll, and scroll, and scroll, because some pinhead feels the need to take half the page with their badge of honor gear list. Silly and annoying.
What's worse, is they have to detail mods, upgrades, headshell, tubes in it, who touched it, version, year, who's played it, who looked at it, dimensions, etc.. And people wonder why sites are slow and glitchy.

Seems a bit early to list it here...
And so $3,500 is the sale price?

I think due to the high demand we've received they've set this up for pre-orders (and also so people know it's definitely coming out soon!)
We have been working on figures for the past few weeks and this is the price that we concluded on. so...
We're extremely excited to be offering the Custom Super-Hi 50 at $3500!
Sorry for hijacking this Dave
Cheers guys,

Wonder why it's listed as MINT, but below as BRAND NEW?
Seems somewhat reasonable. Still out of my price-range, however. Lot's of choices at $3500, I'd just find a used Fortin-modded Marshall for much less.

Damn straight, bro. That's a lot of dough for a single channel 50 watt....napalmdeath":2ndq3y2d said:cyphervox":2ndq3y2d said:

No shit. Oh well, looks like I’ll stop following this amp. I’ll wait and buy used to cut out the middleman.

Personally, for that price, I would definitely prefer to see a footswitchable, two channel amp with an effects loop, featuring classic Hiwatt cleans and crunch, as well as the absolutely brutal high-gain channel we've all been drooling over. I would absolutely pay $3,500 for that without hesitation. I dream of a Hiwatt that can cover the 60's through to modern insanity. Hell, if I had to I would modify the Super-Hi to add a tube for the low gain channel! Let it eat all other amps alive!!! Now that's irony!
