About this listing
This 1969 "drip edge" Vibrolux is in great overall condition. There's the normal exterior wear you'd expect from a 60 year old amp. The all tube, mid wattage, and 2x10 combo format make this a perfect amp for a lot of applications. A touch more clean headroom than a Deluxe, with more "open" and less boxy sound.This one has a newer power transformer. Caps updated with Spragues. New 3 prong grounded power cable. A newer footswitch for the vibrato/Reverb. A few screws are newer.The two speakers have been replaced with two 10" Warehouse speakers -- one ceramic and one alnico for a very smooth, balanced tone. It is the quietest vintage Fender amp I've played through. No static with the knobs and a super low noise floor when idle. No old cigarette smells either. It's an excellent amp. Here are the details that date the amp to 1969:Serial number A 122011969 date stamp inside chassis - ends in 0469, likely indicating 4th week of 1969Choke code 606825 (25th week of 1968)Output transformer code 606822 (22nd week of 1968)Reverb transformer code 606842 (42nd week of 1968)The pots are original and date to 1968 as well.The sale includes a very nice heavy-duty vinyl cover, as pictured.
