Характеристики

Exact Year 1965
Country/Region of Manufacture United States

Fender amplifier is in excellent cosmetic and operational condition.  I just took the amplifier into a local specialized audio and electronics shop (see attached receipt photo) to have the equipment checked for operational integrity.  He cleaned all of the controls.  He also replaced the 12AX7 tube and power plug and checked all capacitors.  The foot petal is in perfect working condition.

I asked the proprietor performing the work on the amplifier to give me an honest assessment of the equipment. He replied with, “It’s one of the top 10 amps I’ve ever had come through here.”  He went on to say that after he had fixed the operational issue by replacing the 12AX7, the amp was one of the best he has ever heard and was impressed with the condition of the equipment.  He commented on the receipt that there was “NO HUM”.

This Fender Deluxe Reverb (Blackface) amplifier was manufactured in October 1965.  The two-letter code stamped on the tube chart (see photo) inside the back of the amp is “OJ”.  The “O” indicates 1965 and the “J” indicates October.  It was manufactured after CBS bought Fender in 1965.  This is evident in the label indicating “Fender Musical Instruments”.  The 20W 12" speaker was manufactured by Utah Radio Products Company.

Full disclosure:  The top C-shaped backboard at some point was removed, rotated 180 degrees and placed in the middle of the back instead of the top where it would normally cover the electronics.  This is evident as you can see the screw holes in the frame from its original position.  I can only imagine this was to allow easy access to the tubes when they needed replacing. There is also one screw missing that holds the C-shaped backboard to the chassis (see photo). There are also some minor scuffs to the bottom exterior of the amp (see photo).  However, they do not penetrate the vinyl covering.

If you have any questions, please feel free to post them.  If I don’t know the answer, I will reach out to the audio shop that worked on it and get his expertise.

Thanks for looking.  Happy Bidding!
