Fender 1964 Pro AB763 Rare Blackpanel Pre CBS 15" Amp. Serviced, Excellent

No sales tax for US customers outside California.

This Fender 1964 Pro AB763 in black is in excellent condition.  The amp is just about as clean as they come, and though we did not picture a footswitch with it, an original pedal is included.  The amp runs strong and quiet and sounds wonderful.

This is a serviced pre-CBS blackpanel Pro, a 40-watt combo with onboard vibrato, original black tolex, and a wheat sparkle grille. It has a single 1965 15" Jensen C15NS speaker (manufacturer code 220, date code 503), which is not original to the amp but does fall into the correct period, being from the third week of 1965.  We have sold one or two of these rare amps, having received them all as part of a huge amp collection. Tubes are a Sylvania GZ34 rectifier, two Fender 6L6 power tubes, a 12AT7, and three RCA 12AX7 preamp tubes.  These US made, vintage tubes are a huge value add and they add to the tone as well.  We tested them all to make sure they are solid for you.  With some care, these tubes could last another lifetime versus the throw-away tubes made today.  Part of our intake process included a full cleaning of pots, jacks, and tube sockets.  

The cabinet, baffle, chassis, and speaker rate excellent with no repairs or changes, and the grille rates very good. The Schumacher power transformer (date code 414), choke transformer (419), and output transformer (415) are original, as are the knobs, handle, and potentiometers. The filter caps have been replaced, as have the other electrolytic caps in the circuit.  The power cable has been upgraded to a grounded one.
