1966 Fender Deluxe Reverb Blackface Vintage Tube Amp 1×12 AB763 Circuit with ftsw
Up for sale, a 1966 Fender Deluxe Reverb in excellent condition and in perfect working order. Widely considered to be one of the greatest tube amps of all time, this Deluxe Reverb has been expertly maintained to balance function with originality. Stocked with fresh 6V6 power tubes and an assortment of new and NOS preamp tubes, this Deluxe delivers the shimmering, balanced clean tone that has made these amps a mainstay in studios and on stages for decades. The amp has great midrange content, light compression, and starts to saturate with smooth tube overdrive after about 5 on the volume dial. The Reverb is very lush with a long decay, and the tremolo has a strong pulse with an almost three-dimensional quality to the effect when you increase the intensity. Professionally recapped so the power amp is stable and working as per factory spec with a very low noise floor suitable for recording, the amp also features a modern three-prong power cable. The preamp is loaded with an assortment of vintage Fender blue molded caps and all of the original Schumacher transformers are present, with date codes spanning late 1965 and early’66. The CTS pots date back to the 45th week of’65 and the tube chart is intact with an “PC” date code which translates to March of 1966. The original Oxford speaker also dates to 1965 with the original blue foil Fender label on the magnet and a fresh recone. Cosmetically, the amp is very original overall, with stock smooth black tolex and silver sparkle grillcloth. There is moderate aging of the grillcloth and some minor scuffs around the edges of the tolex as well as one small cigarette burn on the top. The original hardware is all present including the chassis straps, handle caps, sphinx glides (feet), corners, and raised Fender logo on the baffle. The original faceplate is also quite clean with stock witch hat knobs. This is a very original and well maintained example of one of Fender’s most famous Blackface amps, complete with the original two-button footswitch.
