I'll have to take some better pics, but my current stable includes a Vibrosonic Reverb, a Pro Reverb, a Deluxe Reverb, and a Vibro Champ. Just can't beat these amps for loud and clear tone. I have an old Ampeg B-15-N flip-top, too, and it's wicked cool, but the Fenders go everywhere with me. I hope they don't gain much more popularity, or the prices will skyrocket. If you are in need of a great amp, these are still a good value, reliable, and sound fantastic! Here's the Deluxe, sporting a JBL K-120  Here's the Pro, loaded with a pair of Jensen Neo speakers  and here's the Vibro Champ, with a Weber speaker..  The Vibrosonic is buried under the Pro, I'll shoot some more pics when I get a chance.. |

I love the SF Fenders too. Here's my '71 SF Princeton Reverb...Well, the guts of it anyway...  |

Nice PR, I want one of those. I kind of have four. '72 Deluxe Reverb, slightly modified and has a '66 Jensen EM-1250 speaker. Mid 70's Bandmaster Reverb with a black Vibroverb faceplate, Pro Reverb output transformer, Vibrosonic Reverb reverb tank, and in a 2x10" combo cab. More modded than the DR, although I'd like to bring it closer to stock. Mid 70's Pro Reverb in a blonde/oxblood RAWoods cabinet, Eminence Big Ben 15" speaker and a Prosonic output transformer. Black faceplate. '83 Bassman 135 head and 2x15" cab. Stock except for power tubes, 4 resistors, and one knob. This is SF guts but after they changed back to BF cosmetics. They're all in various states of disrepair (except the Bassman), I'll post pictures when I get them together.  |

Nice amps Rich. Although cosmetically, I like the Blackfaces, but it's all about the sound right?

Cosmetically, the blackfaces look better to me, too.. BUT the silverface amps seem to have more clean headroom (to me), and I generally like that sound better. I'm kinda different from most guitar players in that I like the pure voice of the instrument to ring out, with less distortion.. It's probably due to a more acoustic background.. I can't stand Marshall amps- too low-fi for my tastes. The exception being when I want to blow the roof off the house.. Turn a 100 watt Plexi up to about 7 or 8, and plug in one of my Lesters.. But that is quite rare these days. I like the nuances of my playing to come to the forefront, and not be covered up with all the extraneous crap of a dirtier sounding amp.

Silver faces are a STEAL for giggin' with a clean tone.
A handwired silver is easy to mod as well and will last forever !
