Fender 1965 Tremolux AB763 Head and 2x10" Cab, Serviced, Very Good

No sales tax for US customers outside California.

This Fender 1965 Tremolux AB763 Head and 2x10" Cab in black is in very good condition.  The amp is clean, cosmetically, and the head has been serviced.  It runs perfectly and sounds great.  The head is missing the back panel.

It's a 35 watt piggyback with the original black tolex, a wheat sparkle grille in good condition, and a pine cabinet in very good condition. The head is tremolo only, with no pedal included. The chassis, the transformers (Schumacher), the pots, and the handle are all original.

It's been serviced with a cap job and a changed power cable. The tubes are JJ: a GZ34S rectifier, two 6L6GC power tubes, and ECC81 and 12AX7 preamp tubes - all tested in our shop prior to listing. The cab has two Alessandro GA-10 SC64 10" speakers, which are not original. 

The Tremolux came out in the summer of 1955 as a 15 watt amp with two 6V6 tubes, and it was the first Fender amp with a built-in effect, tremolo. In 1961 it changed from a 1x12 tweed combo to a piggyback amp with oxblood grillcloth. It soon went to 35 watts with a pair of 6L6GC power tubes and a GZ34 rectifier. The 2x10 cab was the most common speaker setup, and it's what you get here. In 1964 the cream tolex gave way to black tolex and the circuit changed to the AB763. Fender dropped the model in the summer of 1966, so a 1965 is near the end of the run.
