I have too a BFPR, date code PK ( for november 1966 ?) too and Prod #90 too !! Mine has also a gold label speaker Jensen C10Q 220550. Serial number #a13171. My best amplifier. Better than my ’74 SFVR equiped with one ’66 Jensen. C10Q 220618 and one ’65 Jensen C10Q 220523. A good one too !

massf31,

I have a BFPR, date code PK. It has the gold label Fender Jensen. The circuit is an AA764 and it uses a GZ34 rectifier. Prod #90. Splain that!

pooos,

Patent 68 refers to a patent internal documentation type number not the patent year!

Chris Williams,

my friend found one and bought it at an auction for 600 dollars..we verified the codes and it is a ’66..my question is why does it say on the frontpiece design and circuts patent 68?

Donpops,

These are such nice amps. Small but not too small on the tone. Perfect for small rooms and recording. The best speakers they came with was the better Oxford 10L5 and the C10N Jensen. The Jensens hold up the best and sound the best especially the C10N. Some came with the C10Q or R. If you get a chance to play one with a nice set of RCA 6V6GTs and a C10N Jensen you won’t be dissapointed. One of Fenders best!
