Subject: Alamo 'Fiesta', good cheap & small amps

Just bought an old Alamo 'Fiesta' amp for $125. Sounds great. It has
a 6 inch speaker, 6V6, 12AU tubes (plus another tube for the tremelo,
which I'm not using). Very interesting little amp. Anyone else have
any experience with this amp.

The store also had a Sears Silvertone with similar setup (6" speaker,
etc.), that also sounded very good.

Any other good vintage, cheap small amps that distort easily? Prices
seem to treble if the amp has the 'Fender' name on it, but these amps
sound about as good as an old Champ, really.
