I had a BA for a couple of years. I think I paid about 5 bills for the 1x12 combo. I actually sold a Black Cat Cub 15R and a Heritage Victory Combo because the Blue Angel sounded so nice. Some people complain that there is quite a bit of white noise on that amp and there is especially at higher volume settings, but a couple of tube swaps can really bring that down. There was a long post on TGP about it years ago, do a search if your interested maybe it's still out there. Cool Amp.
