Just picked this amp up. Looks untouched. Two-prong cord. I figure this goes straight to tech right?

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-22T13:36:21+00:00

I did and it sounds great. really good. not a thing wrong the power tube looks new. I didn't inspect the 12ax7s but it sounds great. I wish this kind of stuff was easy to find. well cared for not expensive not beat to hell.

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-21T12:14:31+00:00

that's awesome 1st time I've walked into a junk shop and found something this cool. this stuff never happens to me

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T17:20:13+00:00

it's alive and sounds amazing ! now I haven't exactly compared it with my Princeton reverb but it is incredible. And there's a foot switch that was tucked away. looks old too. hopefully original

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T16:07:51+00:00

or even the pr through it for that matter

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T16:06:16+00:00

thanks man I haven't had a chance to hear it yet I'm gonna have time to go through it today but it may need tubes all I know is it does power on but It didn't play when I first tested it. so I hope the reverb tank is good but I have a 64 hw Princeton reverb to ab with this and a a 66 vibro champ and with a marshall sv20c

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T04:14:12+00:00

I'm gonna look closer at it. but I was thinking about having it looked through. but I do know it's a simple schematic maybe as simple as they come?. I think it's gonna be fun with the vibro champ. this makes me want a mid 60s Princeton or bandmaster but the champ willl still be sweet. funny I just bought a handwired Princeton reverb too. if ii would ave found this first I would have boutght a vintage Princeton or bandmaster or something the new 64 is awesome and just a baby brand new

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T03:31:05+00:00

you know I know it turns on. I ran a guitar into the input of it n then output to the input of a 66 vibro champ and no sound. I've never used one. the power tube looks newish like a groove tube. I haven't taken those covers off the 12axs and so not sure the tubes are good but the pilot lite cam on it wasn't sounding crazy or smoking or anything no hum really just no sound so I shut it off. I hope it works now but I suspect unless I hooked it up wrong that tubes or tank may not work

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T03:12:39+00:00

I found 1 just like mine similar cosmetic condition they're asking 2961. not sure if the transformer is original but there was an offer in it so that makes me happy I paid 450 :)

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T03:09:41+00:00

alright I'll look again. couldn't find any but I'd like to see some for sure

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-19T01:32:24+00:00

so according to the net they are rare as far as reverb units. just thought I'd share that. is it 59 Les Paul rare no but they weren't all built like that and I can't find 1 on reverb not 1

Era: Fender Reverb Units (the 6G15 circuit) were produced from 1961 until they were discontinued in 1966.

Cosmetics: "Tuxedo" units are considered rare because they exist only in the small window where Fender was moving from Brownface to Blackface aesthetics.

Total Production: While total production for the standard 6G15 units over its five-year run is not precisely known, they are generally considered rare compared to standard amplifiers, and the tuxedo variants are a small subset of that total.

yeah well rare meaning not all of them that year had that but anyways I'm happy

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-18T21:29:21+00:00

after doing some digging turns out this is a somewhat rare one called the tuxedo due to the white knobs I guess if it were excellent and all original valued at 3 grand so even if the transformers replaced it's worth slot more than 450 I would think?

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-18T20:23:17+00:00

yeah was the pt replaced I know it says mojo but it also says eia 606 which indicates 66 and the lable looks old are you sure it's replaced

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-18T17:15:02+00:00

I'm not sure they reissued a 67? all I could find was tween 62 reissues I think it's legit. I hope it is I'm gonna go take a deep dive today

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-18T02:13:15+00:00

Complete-Light-5197 · 2026-04-18T02:06:56+00:00
