1965 Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp – Blackface
We present an original 1965 Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp – Blackface. Made in Fullerton, California.
This Fender amplifier is a relatively clean early-CBS example of one of the all-time classic Fender amps. With enough gain to break up at lower volumes and enough headroom to keep up with a drum kit, plus full reverb and tremolo functionality, the Deluxe Reverb stands as one of the benchmark 1960s amplifiers that others are compared to. Externally, it shows some light, typical wear to the Tolex, grille cloth, and faceplate, but nothing too serious. The original speaker has been reconed.
This Deluxe Reverb was recently serviced: electrolytic capacitors were replaced, it was re-biased to spec, a three-prong power cord was installed, and NOS tubes were fitted. The rectifier tube is a Mullard GZ34; power tubes: GE Electric 6V6 pair; V6: GE Electric 12AT7; V5: Mullard 12AX7; V4: Mullard 12AX7; V3: GE Electric 12AT7; V2: Matsushita/Toshiba 12AX7; V1: Mullard 12AX7. Overall, this is a great-sounding early-CBS example of one of the most iconic Fender amplifiers, in ready-to-gig condition.
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.
