This is a 2012 blonde Allen Chihuahua Head paired with a Suhr Celestion Vintage 30 112 Cabinet, in very good clean condition and currently set up with a 6L6 power tube for 10 watts output. Optionally, a 6V6 can be used to reduce power to 6 watts. It’s also fitted with an Accutronics reverb tank.
The Fender 75 amp, designed by Ed Jahns, was built from 1980 to 1982 in Fullerton, California and came in 12 or 15 inch combo or head format.
Evolving from one of Leo Fender’s oldest designs, the Fender Deluxe Reverb 1968 “Silverface” introduced updates to the ‘Blackface’ models that had gained Reverb and Vibrato. However, in 1968, not many changes had been made to the Deluxe Reverb to take it away from the ‘Blackface’ circuitry; at this point most changes were cosmetic.
The 65 Amps Ventura is aimed at studio and smaller venue players who need high quality but portable tube amplifiers. At 20 watts and under 20 pounds, this “Lunchbox” size amp is right on target.
The Vox AC30/6TB Combo Amp was built from 1994 to 2004, just after Vox ownership passed from Rose Morris to Korg. Here, we’re looking at a good condition Vox AC30/6TB built during 1999 in England, under the ownership of Korg; the amp itself was built by a well-known contractor.
The Fender Custom Vibrolux Reverb Professional Tube Amplifier, built from 1995 to 2013, was part of Fender’s Professional Series, designed by the Custom Shop and built in the Fender factory. It is based on the Blackface versions of the classic 35 watt, 2×10 speaker Vibrolux Reverb, and uses a pair of Jensen speakers. And it comes stock with tilt-back legs! This example dates to 2006 and is in very good condition.
The Fender Super Reverb was built from 1963 to 1982, and was one of Fender’s physically largest combo amps – though in terms of raw power output, the most powerful combo was the Twin Reverb. The Super Reverb delivered 40 watts as ‘Blackface’, then 45 watts as ‘Silverface’ and ultimately 70 watts for models after 1977, all through four ten inch speakers.
