1952 Fender Deluxe 5B3 Tweed
No sales tax for customers outside California.
This amp is outstanding, captivating really. To find a tweed amp in this condition is extremely rare.
The circuit has seen necessary, non-invasive service, readying it for years of service. It is a near mint relic that you can use and enjoy.
The only knock on condition is on the underside of the cabinet. I assume that the amp sat somewhere for years and the tweed lacquer bonded with carpet or whatever was under the amp. It is inconsequential if you really think about it. Many amps suffer the same affliction, and who really looks under there anyway?
It is all about the tone in the end, and this amp does not disappoint!
Original tweed, original handle, clean control panel, Elileen's name in the chassis on the tape, original grille, original speaker, original transformers - everything you want in a vintage tweed Fender!
