Up for sale is a legendary 1964 Fender Deluxe Reverb, a true "holy grail" piece of American amplifier history. This is a highly sought-after Pre-CBS model that delivers the definitive "sparkle and growl" these black-panel amps are famous for. While it has seen some thoughtful professional updates to keep it stage-ready and sounding its absolute best, it retains the soul of a mid-60s classic.

* Speaker: The original speaker has been upgraded to a Weber Ferromax. This speaker provides a rich, vintage-inspired tone with incredible touch sensitivity, perfectly complementing the amp’s natural compression.

* Transformers: The power transformer has been replaced with a high-quality unit from Pacific Audio Magnetics, known for their exceptional vintage-spec accuracy and reliability.

* Original Parts Included: I am including the original 1964 power transformer with the sale. It currently needs a professional rewind, but it is a vital piece for anyone looking to restore the amp to full "collector" status in the future.

This amp isn't just a museum piece; it’s a performer. It underwent a full professional service in November 2024, ensuring all components are within spec and the amp is running quiet and strong.

* Tone: The reverb is lush and deep, and the tremolo has that signature swampy pulse.

* Aesthetics: Classic black-panel styling with honest wear that tells the story of its 60-year history. Please see photos for detailed shots of the Tolex and faceplate.

Finding a Pre-CBS Deluxe Reverb that has been recently serviced and is ready to plug in and play is becoming increasingly rare. Between the Weber speaker and the Pacific Audio iron, this amp sounds absolutely massive.

The amp will be packed with extreme care (tubes pulled and wrapped separately) to ensure it arrives safely.

Please message me with any specific questions or if you need additional photos of the chassis or transformers.
