1964 Fender VibroVerb - Pre CBS goodness.
I get to see a ton of cool gear, but this one is pretty special. A real-deal 1964 pre-CBS Fender VibroVerb with the original speaker and tubes. Sadly the power tubes and rectifier had to go, but the majority of the preamp tubes still sounded and functioned great. All of the electrolytics were leaking and corroded, but once replaced the amp fired up and didn't disappoint. A few minor tweaks to the vibrato, a new set of kick-back legs, a really deep cleaning, and this old boy was ready to rock n roll again. The best part was finding the vintage Vote for "Bubba" reelection pencil hiding under the reverb tank. I'm not sure if this was Bubba's amp, but who am I to question a man that can rock a tan suit like he did?
