Where have all the Sovtek amps gone?

I remember the Sovtek MIG amps when they came out. They got great reviews in the magazines at the time. I wanted one, but they seemed out of pocket for me.

I check up occasionally to see if there are any available, despite hearing over the years how unreliable they are. It's a bit like me and the Westone guitars available around the same time. Maybe its trying to see about the track I could have taken and if things would have been different.

...but I haven't seen a single MIG amp for sale for a couple of years!

(Not that I'd actually buy one if I saw one, I've enough amps already.)

Scrapped for parts or in landfill.

All owned by JHS pedals! Well he has a room full of them anyway. 

WiresDreamDisasters

All the doomers in the Czech Republic own them.

This guy found one recently, only got a video on instagram of it, he usually puts stuff on youtube. He sells most of the stuff he finds, but will need to ship from the US! https://www.instagram.com/jeremytheguitarhunter/

EHX reissued the Mig 50 but it's not in the UK market. 

I myself also remember the amps when they came out.  I liked the look of them and wanted to try one out.
