In good shape.. This is a players amp, not a collectors item.. It had a band name stenciled on top and painted over, years ago.. It works well, clean and super loud, with that unmatched BF Fender richness and sparkle... Its a 1965 I THINK but not sure, used to know, but that was a LONG time ago..... Its been years since I have used it.. Has a slight hum which goes away within about 30 seconds, so it may need a few caps.. I used it for gigs for years and it was a wonderful amp... I can get some pics up for the truly interested,, Priced very fairly at $600 firm and shipping.. about $25 east of the river, and $45 west coast.. These are regularly selling in the $800-900 these days, and silverfaces are selling $600-700...
Please email direct for info...

Pics for those that asked.. The "paint damage" on top revealed.. Otherwise not bad for a 50 year old.. Been playing my ETS through it past few days around the house.. No issues, working well at this time.. When first fired up a few days ago for the first time ina LONG time, I heard a very slight hum for my 20-30 seconds which went away and hasn't been heard since.. This amp is OLD and I simply cannot say with 100% assurance that it is absolutely perfect.. It sounds sweet as ever, but might need tubes, caps ,whatever to be gig worthy after sitting so much.. It hasn't been used in over a year, and for many years before that was hardly used.. It always performed flawlessly for when I used it on gigs years ago.. Please assume it needs caps and maybe a few tubes, but for me, right now it would go alone with me to a gig this weekend with no backup.. Thats as honest as I can be ... bob

Amp clamps are there.. This amp was gone through years agao... The pre amp tubes are Sovtek, not OEM
