Made famous by Austen Hooks and Blake Mills, this is a solid Bell and Howell amp that uses the same transformer as the golden age of Fenders tweed line up. This Schumaucher power transformer is from the 52th week of 1959 (606952), and so is the Schumaucher output transformer, so think 5E3 Fender Deluxe in clarity and grind. We have hand-selected a GE gray plate 12ax7 and a wonderful RCA grey plate 12ax7 for the preamp section. This amp was used by Blake Mills, Taylor Goldsmith, Marcus Mumford, Jon Brion, Brandon Walters (Lord Huron), Keith Richards and various producers and guitar players. It's basically a very special "Deluxe" unlike most anything out there. This amp sounds incredible, super crunchy tube sound with very tight mids and highs. Perfect for recording that monster guitar sound at a lower volume. It currently still has the original power cord socket, so I would recommend replacing it to a grounded one for safety and letting your tech do a one over to make sure it lasts you years. This one has not yet been converted, but I can confirm it is working properly. I would also highly encourage using a BrownBox or similar voltage reducer to protect this amp from the modern wall voltages. It truly preserves the tone and ensures the life of the components. Please view my other listings for more vintage Fender amps.

Disclaimer: Only the amp is for sale. The BrownBox and cab will be sold in a separate listing. Please view all photos as they are a part of this amp's description.
