I have a later '60 (JJ code, so Oct 1960)still with the brown grille cloth.

It's a super great amp, I LOVE it. Mine has a replaced Power tranny, which is too bad, but oh well.
I'm on the lookout for a 8087 or 67233.

Is this one a Center Volume? Does it have the chrome lettering with the metal knobs?

These sound GREAT with a Steel guitar. Really clean with a bit of warmth that's sometimes lacking in the blackface/early silverface models.

Respectfully, I'm confused here.

A 1960 Vibrosonic? To my knowledge (and, correct me, please, if I'm wrong), the Vibrosonic was not issued in the 60's but, rather, much later.

Vibrosonics were made in the late 50's, early 60's. Vibrosonic Reverbs were the later ones, in the 70's & 80's.
