Widely considered one of all-time great club amps, the venerable Vibrolux Reverb marries the sweet cleans of lowered powered Fender combos with the authority of the heavyweight high-wattage outfits

What To Know

When it comes to 'Blackface' Fender amps, the Vibrolux Reverb might be the most versatile of them all. With its twin 10" speaker configuration and pushing 40 watts via a pair of 6L6s, it delivers the right amount of volume for a stage, with the low volume sweetness often found in lower powered amps like the Deluxe Reverb and Princeton Reverb.

This 1965 Fender Vibrolux Reverb is in lovely condition and has been very well maintained through its life. It's been recently serviced and is loaded with a set of modern Jensen P10R alnico speakers from 2003 that sound wonderful! The original Oxford speakers are also included in the sale. The rear upper back panel was replaced at one point but overall cabinet condition is great.
