Pre Owned 1978 Fender Silver Face Deluxe Reverb Guitar Amp Combo

A Fender Deluxe Reverb is one of the most iconic amps in the history of amp.  This has been the "go to" model of choice for a number of players since it debuted.  The 60s and 70s "silverface" era amps have taken on a life of their own - after being originally shunned by the vintage market, they've taken on a life of their own with a new generation of players, to the point where Fender reissued them a few years back.  Vintage pieces, especially affordable ones like this, have become highly desirable.  

20 watts and a single 12" speaker, powered and voiced by  a mix of 6V6, 12AX7 and 5AR4 tubes, gives you all the tone you'll ever need.  The reverb and vibrato really makes this amp what it is - and what it is a truly classic.  We were pretty happy to see this 1978 Deluxe Reverb come through the door.  

For a lot of players, this look is the coolest look, but they want the sound of the "Blackface" era.  A previous owner of this amp went for it in full, and had legendary local L.A. amp guru Bob Dixon for a full "Blackface" conversion.  The circuit was converted back to the "Blackface" specs, to take it back to the golden era of the Deluxe Reverb, which is commonly known at 1963 - 1967.  It's a relatively simple procedure (for a qualified amp tech) .  The result is that this amps sounds as good as any mid-60's Deluxe Reverb, but at a much lower price.

The condition of this Deluxe Reverb is very good, especially considering its age.  Be sure to check out the photos to see everything.  This is a great looking amp....to say nothing of how it sounds.  Full, balanced and rich - a Deluxe Reverb is the definition of the Fender sound.  We've had a ton of vintage Fender amps here over the years, and this is a great one.  It would be a fine addition to any vintage amp collection.
