The Blackface Deluxe Reverb is held in legendary regard, especially in Nashville. They certainly have a perfect format for gigging, both with tone, size, and volume. This amp has moderate signs of previous wear, and has held up well over the years. The original speaker has been changed out for a Celestion Alnico Gold, which is certainly comparable in terms of sound-quality. Internally, the power cord and preamp electrolytics have been changed, along with some of the plate resistors early in the preamp. The rest of the resistors are still original. While the ceramic coupling caps have been replaced, thankfully all of the original "Blue Molded" Ajax caps are still present, preserving that signature Blackface sound.
