Fender PA-100 head. Has 4 channels with reverb. I want this for a project amp and it will be for using guitar and steel as it has reverb in all channels.

Somehow, very cool looking.
Question, if I may ... why no XLR inputs? Are these PA amps for high impedance mics only?

Thanks.

Yes. Old school, high impedance only. Not much as a PA by today standard . They make a great guitar or bass amp though. Plenty of power.

Michael:

When these Pa heads were made, most mics only had 1/4 inch jacks and that's why there were no XLR input jacks. I still have a 50 year old PE-54 mic with a 1/4 jack that sounds great. Good thing as these PA heads were basically a Twin Reverb with Four channels and only a Treble and Bass control. The Twin has Bass, treble, mid and presence. However, a Deluxe Reverb is setup the same way the PA head for treble & bass.

There also some mods that can be done on these amps to tweak each channel for whatever instrument you are playing. Cool project amp!

This amp is the BOMB. I have it hooked up with a bass cab and using the reverb with the bass. I know, who uses reverb with bass, but it sounds wonderful. Everything about this amp is perfect and it looks like it just came out of the showroom. Thank you Bill Very Happy

I forgot to mention that I also picked up a nice PA 100 that my tech is changing the input caps and resistors on each channel to Twin specs that will use for steel & guitar. I also traded an Ibanez guitar and some cash for a Duel Showman head with reverb. I am in Fender Heaven!
