I just scored a 1960 Brownface. It had all the tolex removed and the speakers were gone and a Jensen 16″ speaker was installed. The vibrato needs some repair but all else is working fine. I love the sound and the cool factor is over the top. The previous owner covered it with what looks like epoxy paint and sprinkles; not a bad look. I’m thinking of keeping it like it is and fixing the vibrato.
I’m working on a white Concert amp an export model A/63 that only has 4 pre amp tubes. I can’t find any information about it. Anything would be appreciated
Scored a ’63 from Larry Briggs bitd for 500.00! No tolex, some knucklehead pulled the 4×10’s and replaced with a 12″ celestion. .. urk… Rick Potter (R.I.P.) tuned her up, re-tolexed it pink, 4×10 jensens installed, oxblood grill cloth! Coolest amp i ever owned next to my 64 Super!
