Which All-Valve Power Amp?

[b]Which All-Valve Power Amp?[/b]

So in the great tradition of BC thread titles ending in a question mark - Which All-Valve Power Amp?

Having just acquired an Ampeg SVP Pro (which I'm VERY pleased with - it's tone-tastic), I now have a yearning for the 'all-valve bounce' and having consulted the Google-thing, have come up with very few options.

The logical choice is the SVT 300 all-valver - which is a beast - but they are few and far between and the ones I've seen on the Bay and elsewhere are either a bit rough condition-wise or way too expensive.

What do you reckon? Suggestions, please. :)

Oh, and it should be rack-mountable. I realise this restricts the choices somewhat, but there it is.

I thank you! :)

Just scored an immaculate Burman 501 1x12 guitar combo that sounds better than anything I've ever heard and it's a heavy bugger.
I would love to hear a Burman 4000 bass head and cab. I bet you could knock the Sun off its perch with one of those.

Back of the room on a handheld recorder, but its a 4000 into a Barefaced S15, and a Pro502 into a Barefaced Vintage: [url="http://warriorpope.bandcamp.com/"]http://warriorpope.bandcamp.com/[/url]

Edit: And a Pro2000 combo for guitar.

Mine sound very clean and full. I wouldn't say they're loud but you do get a lot of volume for 140w. I once kept up with a guitarists 50w Marshall but needed a 4x10 and 1x15 to do it. ;)
