A while back, I took a fancy for a tone king (falcon? I think). I also clocked my eyes on Milkman.
Now, I don't have an issue with the cost although I've since found out that the £1899 milkman is apparently $899 in 'Murica.
I love my JMP which is why it's not going anywhere. This is more or less for my showroom and workshop (which is taking financial priority right now).
Im open to suggestions about amps and more so UK builders of Fender-Esque tones. I actually love how Tone King style their cabs too, retro is win in my book.
Do any of you have experience with Milkman or tone king? Or UK builders of the same sort of amp?

Another two to add to the mix. The Thornton Dexter amp is phenomenal.

There's no direct comparison but the closest thing I can find from Rift Amps to the Dairy Air, would be a PT20 which is a combo which is £1750, so the difference between a Rift and a Milkman isn't huge.
If I was looking for something Fender inspired for a bit less and UK built I'd probably have a look at the Motion Custom Works amps. Marc at MojoPickups speaks very highly of Andrew's amps.
