You are right the new heads are fifty or more wattage tube amps. They sound fine. The cabs are much deeper than the old cabs that allows more room for the speaker reflex and thats a good thing. The covering work is good. As far as I know they only come in four colors and two different types of cabs in the head and cab verisons a 4x12 and the other 2x15. They made a number of smaller combo amps though.

The heads looked like and old plexi head and was just deeper instead of slanted like the last of the orginal rolled and pleated amps of the 150 and 250 final series of the orginal Kustom company. The logos on them are very simular to the old ones. I was disappointed that the company did'nt last longer with them. I know that I would have bought one had they lasted a little longer. I already had my eye on ordering one from musician's fiend (too high in the local stores) but then suddenly pooh they were gone.
