Hi all,
I'm selling my tweed-covered Fender Blues Deluxe. I'm the original owner, and with the exception of a handful of gigs early on, this amp has resided in my smoke-free home studio.
40 watts
1x12 Eminence speaker
2 channels (clean and overdrive)
2 inputs
power amp in
preamp out
tone controls (bass, mid, treble)
presence control
volume
drive control (OD channel)
master volume (OD channel)
reverb
This amp is all original with the following improvements:
1. I've replaced the reverb tank with a newer Accutronics unit. It is more stout than the original.
2. The tweed cabinet has been lacquered. It looks fantastic, with a nice vintage appearance. The tweed is now water-resistant and all but bulletproof, and will hold up very well to gigging.
3. I've pilfered/swapped tubes here and there over the years, so I have completely re-tubed this amp with JJ's. Power tubes are a matched pair of 6L6s. Preamp tubes are ECC83 (12ax7). All tubes are brand new.
This amp is very clean. The tweed has no tears or stains. The oxblood grillcloth is clean and looks like new. This amp is not too big, and not too heavy. It is plenty loud if you want it, and sounds great at lower volumes as well. This amp has never had, nor needed, any repairs. No issues. Comes with the original footswitch, schematic and owner's manual. $500.00 plus actual shipping costs.
I'd prefer selling to someone here, and see b0b get some $$ for the site. I'll leave it here for a couple days, and if there's no interest it goes on fleabay. I have 100% feedback on eBay, and my screen name is spruce-top. I was going to get some photos today, but I ran out of daylight. I'll get some tomorrow. If you'd like to see pics, or have any questions feel free to email me at: bluzdelux@mailblocks.com
Thanks!
