The Steel Guitar Forum

Hi,


Looking for a good vintage Fender amp. Want something that is good for guitar and steel.

what's out there?

What's out there?

Everything. How much do you want to spend and how loud do you want to be?

The Fender Twin Reverb seems to be the "go to" amp for both guitar and steel, if you don't mind the weight.

I have a beautiful 1968 Vibrolux Reverb. Email if interested.

I have a Vibrasonic . 100 watt , 15" speaker. I'm selling out because of my health. The amp is perfect.

I've got a fender Twin Reverb in very good to excelent cond. I believe it to be a '74 vintage
with master volume.Pictures on request.

i have a 1968 super reverb drip edge amp with blackface circuit since i dont play big venues anymore

Fender Vibrolux Reverb Reissue and a '66 Ampeg Gemini VI. Email at Fredro11@gmail.com for pics, prices, and descriptions, if interested. Thanks.

go new with some of our steel guitar player builders like the tube tone .. delux reverb clone .. very nice ..
for smaller shows or a bigger 6L6 model like a twin rev.
other builders around getting that vintage sound with
all new parts .. you'll end up paying twice as much for a vintage amp and then probably need to rebuild it anyway fairly soon unless its been rebuilt ..

Fender amps are not too hard to maintain. If I had the $$, I'd go with Ken Fox amps. Fender, but better, not overpriced. He's on the forum! Or get a nice Twin if you want a combo, or a dual showman an cab, with a reverb-delay pedal and you can't go wrong.

I have a 68 Twin Reverb and a 69 Dual Showman Reverb that I would sell. That would leave with two more Fenders. I do like my Fenders.
