Provenance: While the amp has seen some modifications over the years, its essence remains in the iconic lacquered tweed covering. Beneath the aluminum shield, believed to be a later addition, the original asbestos material is intact.
Handle: The original leather handle has been thoughtfully replaced with an authentic Fender Leather Handle, ensuring it maintains its vintage charm.
Recent Servicing Insights: The amp has been treated with great reverence, preserving its original essence:
• It predominantly aligns with the 5C3 schematic.
• The amplifier has been re-capped, along with a few resistors.
• A safety upgrade of a 3-prong cord has been installed. A 'thin' gauge power cord was used to avoid irreversible modifications, and a tube mounting bolt was utilized for the new safety ground.
• All pots have been cleaned, ensuring smooth operation and main filter caps were tested to be in fine working order.
Seize this unique opportunity to own a piece of musical heritage, resonating with the tones of legends who played through these iconic amplifiers.
