For a while they were easy to find used. “Right now I need a Telecaster through a Vibrolux turned up to 10” Memphis in the meantime by John Hiatt

AML makes a 2254 kit that I've been drooling over for a long time.  But I think, sometime soon, that I'll be buying a Buzz Audio DBC instead.  It's not exactly a clone, more their take on a neve diode bridge.  I haven't heard it in person but I'm hoping it compares well to a 2254 in tone.
