Magnatone has been bananas with their prices for a minute now. I've seen ZZ Top a few times in the last 5 years and was curious about them as Billy Gibbons was always using a wall of Magnatone for his backline. Did a little more research, nope he's using a couple of racked JMP-1 preamps backstage.
 
Although out of my price range, Magnatone makes nice stuff.

Inflation is going to continue to rise, we should start getting over the sticker shock, it's a new world now.
 
I have a Magnatone M80. I like it.

Did I probably pay too much for it? Yeah, but I've scored great deals on enough other stuff to make up the difference.

Would I buy a Slash Magnatone for that price? Hell no.
 
Yeah, but if you get the head for only 4k and pair it with the cab the logo lights up! That alone is worth about 1k LOL.

I remember when you could buy a new Les Paul Custom for $800.

A boogie 4x12 with 4 v30s is 1500$

A friedman 4x12 with 2 v30s and 2 GBs is 1500$

A Marshall 1960AV 4x12 with 4 v30s is 1259$

I'm not sure in what universe the magnatone logo and slash's name make it worth literally twice as much
