dang me and my lousy memory! (sorta on this thread)

in the latest issue of tape op, in the reviews section is a short piece by 
larry crane about a really great looking 8-watt
tube amp called babytube (or somethin'). msrp of around $600US, but also 
comes available with a 10-tube assortment pack for
swapping out different colors...has a simple (2-knob) interactive tone & 
gain control. the amp is advertised elsewhere in the
mag, and looks *amazing*; exposed transformer/tubes a la ampeg b12. if 
anyone has seen (or heard) this amp and has more info,
please post. i want one!
