They're probably trying to clear floor space by clearancing an old floor model.

B-52 was at one point owned by GC but I think they've sold it off... They had all their B52 products on sale. It would be a shame for such a good amplifier to be discontinued. Honestly, ever since I messed around with those small things in it, i've fallen in love with it all over again. Granted it's still not the Bogner I want, nor the vintage vox, but it's much more than great for me, and ever since I got my fuzz, it gives me most of those tones I thought I'd need another amp for.

Sounds like you need another one...at $399.

I feel the same way about my US Masters sometimes.

That's a big price decrease. I remember when I was looking for an amp and you suggested them. Your persistent recommendation made me drive two and a half hours to try one out.
