All vintage tubes, preamp tubes are Telefunken ECC83 (12AX7′s), RCA 12AU7′s, tube rectifier is an RCA branded Scott tube. Some parts upgraded/replaced for improved reliability, most importantly the first multi-section cap of the power supply. The bottom metal plate was missing when I got it, so I had an aluminum plate machined to fit. I have put sliders on the bottom plate so that you can have the preamp be on your furniture without the wooden chassis. The sliders also help make the preamp more snug after sliding it into the wooden cabinet. Adjustable level trim pots for Tuner, Tape recorder, Extra (CD Player). Besides the Left and Right channel output, there is a Center channel output. There are a few marks or stains on the chassis and front panel commensurate with its age. Wooden cabinet is very basic one that fits many of the HH Scott amps including this one. But it is functional. I just slide the Model 130 in, nothing fancy. If you want to officially attach the pre-amp to the cabinet, that will be your project. All in all, this is a great tube pre-amp. It has always worked well for me (I have never used the tape recorder ins and outs). But it really sounds nice with beautiful stereo imaging. The Scott Model 130 pre-amp has an excellent reputation.

Up for sale, a 1964 Fender Pro in exceptional condition and in perfect working order. A true Pre-CBS example, this Pro pushes 40 watts of power via a pair of 6L6 power tubes through a single 15 JBL D130F speaker with its original cone. An ideal amp for crystalline Fender cleans and the sparkling, smooth response for which the Blackface era amps are known, this Pro delivers an extremely efficient and powerful sound, perfect for guitar or pedal steel and an ideal candidate for a Rhodes piano too. Tube rectified and notably responsive to your picking dynamics, this JBL D130F-equipped Pro offers a very articulate top end and incredible efficiency and projection, allowing the Pro to easily keep up with a band. The circuit is extremely stock, with a virtually untouched preamp and full recap of the power supply with high quality Sprague Atoms. All of the original blue molded Ajax tone caps are intact in the preamp too, an essential part of the sweet and musical quality of the Blackface amps. The Schumacher transformers are all original, dating to early 1964, and the original CTS pots and chassis stamp date to’64 as well. The original faceplate is extremely clean, with stock witch hat knobs and the “Fender Electric Instruments” text used in the Pre-CBS era. Inside the cabinet, the original tube chart is fully intact and only lightly aged, with an “NE” date stamp which translates to May of 1964. The JBL speaker is likely an aftermarket upgrade, but a speaker Fender did offer in this era in their Vibroverb and Showman amps. The speaker has a clean frame and most importantly its original JBL cone with a clean “21057″ cone stamp visible. Cosmetically, the amp is extremely clean, retaining the original smooth black tolex and silver sparkle grillcloth. The tolex is remarkably well-kept as the photos can attest, with sparingly little aging of the nickel hardware and moderate darkening of the grillcloth over the last 55 years. Check out our shop “Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar, ” and please let us know if we can answer any questions! We use double thick boxes, 1″ foam, and industrial 1/2″ bubble wrap to ensure that your amp arrives safely. Given the narrow voice coil gaps and weight of the JBL speakers, the speaker will also be removed and carefully packed separately for optimal safety while in transit. The speakers require no soldering to reinstall. International orders will be declared as merchandise, and the value of merchandise will be declared as the amount paid. We cannot declare anything as a gift or for a lesser value. The item “1964 Fender Pro Vintage Blackface Pre-CBS Tube Amp 1×15 with JBL D130F” is in sale since Sunday, May 5, 2019.
