1960 Fender Vibrolux Tweed 5F11 – Narrow Panel
We present an original 1960 Fender Vibrolux Tweed 5F11 – Narrow Panel. Made in Fullerton, California.
This Fender Vibrolux delivers the classic tweed tone with incredible dynamics, harmonic richness, and tonal clarity. The tremolo is bias-based, meaning it turns the tubes on and off at a rate and intensity set by the controls, and it has a strong, pleasing pulse.
The original Jensen “P10R” speaker is healthy and sounds perfect. The amplifier has been serviced with new resistors and capacitors, ensuring reliable performance. A new 3-prong power cable and leather handle have also been installed. Otherwise, the chassis is clean, and the chrome control plate with original white lettering is intact, along with the stock chicken head knobs. The original metal handle ends are also intact. The original lacquered tweed covering is present, showing light ambering, scuffs, and wear. Both transformers are original to the amplifier. Overall, the tweed covering looks particularly good — uniformly aged with the original nailed-in feet.
To keep it as original as possible, a step-down transformer is required. We have these in stock and they can be purchased through Guitar Hunter.
