This 1983 Fender Concert amp was part of the series of amps that were designed by Paul
Rivera. In 1982 Paul basically saved the Fender amp line that was floundering
and getting off-track back in the early eighties...he also came up with the
Champ II, the Super Champ (one of the most coveted modern era amps of all time),
Princeton Reverb II, Deluxe II, and the Twin Reverb II.
This is a very well cared for amp.
Reverb/Lead channel footswitch included
The specs include: 1-12" speaker - 60 watts, all tube with 2 channel w/switching,
point to point wiring - bright push-pull on clean channel, mid-boost push-pull
on gain channel - gain channel has gain/vol/master for fine adjust of distortion
level - effects loop has return send trim pots.
This amp sounds great. The sixty watts were more than enough and it really has
a sweet spot that you rarely get to crank up to unless you are gigging in a
large club.
The amp has two channels, both with separate tone controls. The first channel is the classic
Fender clean tone, full and chimey, and the second channel is a high gain thick
overdrive channel for loud overdriven tube tone!
Hand-Wired,Point to Point circuit for easy repair compared to replacing entire circuit
boards these days. You will not find a hand-wired tube amp of this wattage with
these features for this price these days.
Wikipedia:
"The II Series amplifiers were produced from 1982 until 1986, being the
last Fender amps to be made at Fullerton. The specifications for these amplifiers,
and leadership of the design team, came from Paul Rivera (then marketing director)
and are known as Fender Rivera era amplifiers. Some amplifiers in the series
used the II moniker such as the Deluxe Reverb II and Twin Reverb II, while others
such as the Concert and Super Champ did not. Many of these amps had the normal
Fender clean sound and in addition a switchable mid voiced gain channel, designed
to compete with the Mesa Boogie Mark Series series amps that had gained popularity
at the time. The tube amps in the series feature hand-wired eyelet board construction
and are also becoming sought-after collector's items, due to the design
and build quality."
Don't miss out on this fine quality amplifier!!!
