Vintage Tube Amp

Up for sale, a 1958 Fender Deluxe in excellent condition and in perfect working order. A golden era narrow panel “tweed” amp with an incredibly detailed and dynamic range of tones, this amp is a true rarity, featuring a Fender factory retolex in early pinkish-brown rough brown tolex circa 1961. Sitting squarely in the realm of “go find another, ” this Deluxe has a distinct visual appearance and all the raucous, touch-sensitive overdrive and sweet harmonic richness that defines the 5E3 model and narrow panel era of Fender Tweed production. At low volumes this Deluxe can deliver sparkling cleans that are round and powerful, with two distinctly voiced channels that overdrive beautifully. There’s plenty of rich roar and sizzle on tap when the amp is pushed to its max, and the single tone knob has ample range for sculpting the low end or adding treble zing. Especially when connecting the two channels with a small jumper 1/4 cable, the interactive pair of Volume controls can dial in everything from fully saturated snarl to particularly sweet, buzzy qualities with ideal midrange bite that you often times can’t coax out of any other Tweed circuit. This amp reacts well to a host of effects pedals and different guitars, but truly shines with the guitar plugged straight into the amp, using your volume knob to govern clean rhythm tones and singing leads with the twist of a knob. The circuit is extremely original, with stock Triad transformers and CTS pots that date to the 37th week of 1957. The power transformer retains its original windings, and the output transformer has been recently rewound to original spec. The preamp retains three of the famed yellow Astron capacitors, giving the circuit a certain sweetness that no modern cap can match. The power amp has been professionally recapped with F&T capacitors and a few of the smaller electrolytics have been upgraded as well and fitted in the original Minimite sleeves for a clean, vintage look. The tubes include a matched pair of RCA 6V6s with a 5Y3 rectifier and USA-made valves in the preamp too. The power cable has been upgraded to a modern three-prong. The speaker is a modern Jensen P12Q with a green frame and alnico magnet construction closely matching’50s Jensen spec. The tube chart is intact and extremely clean, with paper that is only lightly faded, crisp corners, and an “HA” code, dating the amp to January of 1958 (the latest date on the amp). The chrome on the chassis still has plenty of shine, and much of the original white silkscreen lettering is still present on the panel, along with stock chicken head knobs. A new leather handle has been installed, retaining the original fasteners. The rough brown tolex is in great shape, and this distinctive tolex tint and texture has never been replicated since Fender’s original use from 1960-63. Both back panels are original as well, along with the Oxblood gold stripe grillcloth on the stock baffle.
