Fender 75 Vintage tube amp

Vintage Fender 75 tube amp made during the Rivera era. Just had it gone through and retubed in Nashville a few months ago before I moved back to Oklahoma. Fender's answer to the Mesa Boogie back in the day...loud, monsterous sounding amp, but heavy. $325 plus shipping. Email me for pics.

Powerful and versatile amp ! Is this the 15" speaker or 12"speaker version??

That is a killer deal on an extremely good amp.. They are great pedal steel amps, and are screaming loud and very clean.. I had one and miss it.. They are very heavy, and they were very stoutly built. .. bob

Thanks, guys! This is the 15" version. When I bought it, the guy had put it in a head cab with a 2X12 cab, but I put it back in the original cabinet.

Would you sell it without the speaker, and does the head cabinet come with it.
Thanks, Gary

I actually bought this to try with my steel, but could never get it to clean up enough for me. These were built to compete with Mesa Boogies. Great guitar amp, though.

Im up in Tulsa and interested. How "not clean" is the sound? I'm a 6 string player mostly. Did you try new preamp tubes and such?

Yep, tried different tubes. It has all new tubes, as I had it gone through in Nashville by Jon Davidson. Has barely been played through since that. I would describe the sound as a little bit of "edge" on it. This amp is designed to be played loud. It has high and low inputs, as well...

I gigged with one of these for a few years in the mid 80's... it was great for my tele,335,and old BR9 lap steel... never tried it for pedal steel..it is a loud and well built amp and yes...heavy !!

My offer to purchase JUST the chassis still stands Alan. Could eliminate some potential shipping nightmares...
