Up for sale, a 1967 Fender Super Reverb in excellent condition and in perfect working order, freshly serviced and loaded with a pair of matched JJ 6L6 power tubes. A very early transitional "drip edge" example with 1966-67 date codes throughout, this amp features a set of unique cosmetic cues including aluminum trim framing the grillcloth and an early Silverface faceplate. Under the hood, this Super Reverb is identical to its Black Panel-era predecessors produced in the previous months, retaining the same AB763 circuitry and components.
The amp pushes 40 robust watts of pure Fender clean tone via a pair of JJ 6L6 power tubes, with an ideal blend of sparkle and low end muscle. Perfect for gigging situations and an ideal recording amplifier, the amp provides pristine, muscly Fender cleans until around 5 on the volume dial, where the amp cascades into smooth overdrive. The Reverb is lush and deep, and the Tremolo has a nice pulse, with everything from swampy and slow to quick chattering pulses.
The circuit retains all of the original Schmacher-made transformers (Fender's primary supplier in the Black and Silver eras), dating between the 26th and 33rd weeks of '67. The original CTS and Stackpole pots are all intact as well, with visible date codes from the 22nd week of '66. The AB763 circuit is identical to the Black Panel amps that preceded it, loaded with a bevy of blue molded Ajax caps that have a smooth, musical character. The preamp features new small electrolytic caps, and the power supply has been recapped with high quality F&Ts. A three-prong power cable has also been installed. Tubes include JJ-branded valves throughout save for one Tung Sol-branded preamp tube.
The amp boasts its original alnico magnet CTS speaker quad with clean black frames and blue foil Fender labels. These CTS speakers perfectly capture the nuance, sparkle, and power of the Super's AB763 circuit. Inside the cab, the original tube chart is present as well.
The original smooth black tolex and silver sparkle grillcloth with turquoise stripe are intact, and stock hardware includes the nickel-plated corners, Fender logo, tilt-back chrome legs, handle caps, chassis straps and sphinx glides (feet). The chassis itself is very clean, as is the original faceplate and stock witch hat knobs.
An era-correct footswitch is included.
