This Fender Pro Reverb is a transition-era piece, built just after the Blackface amps were updated to the new Silverface design. Along with the “drip-edge” trim, it also features the black vertical line on the faceplate, marking it as one of the earliest transition models. It appears to be in very good condition overall, showing only light wear such as minor tolex scuffs on the corners and a bit of tape residue. 

Internally, the power cord has been replaced, along with the filter caps and power resistors. On the preamp side, it should be noted that all of the original components have been swapped for modern equivalents. Fortunately, the work was done in a thoughtful way and the amp still sounds excellent—you’d likely never notice unless you looked inside. See pictures for further details. The original speakers have been upgraded to a fantastic pair of re-coned 1959 Jensen P12Ns. All transformers are original Schumachers from 1968.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
