USA
1966
Serial No. R10759
This is the legendary reverb unit from Fender that contains 3 vacuum tubes and 3 transformers. This is a 1966 model based on the serial number stamped on the chassis.
This unit works great and the reverb is the best I have heard so far. The reverb from this unit is even better than the already very nice built-in reverb in the also legendary Fender amps such as the Twin Reverb, Vibrolux Reverb, etc.
The amount and quality of reverb is controllable thru the "Dwell", "Mix" and "Tone" controls.
Tubes installed in this unit are all new: 1 x 12AX7 (JJ/Tesla), 1 x 12AT7 (JJ/Tesla) and 1 x 6K6GT (NOS Tungsol).
The cabinet is structurally sound and the front grill has no tear. The faceplate and the rusted handle shows the age of this unit. The backcover tolex has some tears in some areas.
This unit has been around for 40 years and is now ready to rock for another 40 years.
