Is this amp wired point to point or does it have a circuit board?

B Neilsen, Did you buy the Vibrasonic Custom you were looking at? Since I hadn’t heard back from you I figured you either missed out on the deal or you changed your mind. Let me know. Curious.

Telecastoff, I agree with you and good job of investigating that amp further. I just tried one this past weekend I found at my local music store. It was in really nice condition. Sounded huge and crystal clear. They wanted a bit more for it than I was willing to pay and they wouldn’t budge on price. I’m going back tomorrow and check it out again. If it’s still there and it still sounds as good, I’ll most likely just buy it. As scarce as these are where else am I going to find another one anytime soon? I did an A-B with a new Vibro King they had there and I truly felt the Custom Vibrasonic sounded much better. Maybe just my ears, but I like what I like. I’ll let you know if I buy it.

Hey Telecastoff, Way to go contacting Bruce Zinky. It’s always good to get the real low-down when possible from the designers-builders of amps to fully understand the inner-makings of those amps. I’ll definitely have to try to find one to at least play through one for myself. Any idea what the going price is on these now? I’ve always heard only good thing about Bruce Zinky’s amp designs and it sounds like he created solid gold again in the Vibrasonic Custom Amp. Hope to find one.

I have had this amp since it was new and have played perhaps hundreds of gigs with it. It has never let me down. I play a Telecaster mainly thru this amp and it sounds great. The only thing I have changed besides tubes, was the speaker. I found the stock speaker to be less than desireable in that it was too bright on the highs and farty on the lows. I put a Peavey 1501-4 Black Widow in it and that amp really came alive. This is the only amp I have gigged with for all these years, although I do have others. I kept the stock speaker in case I would ever sell the amp, but I honestly can’t see that ever happening. This is truly the nicest sounding Fender amp I have played thru in all my 50+ years of playing. You just don’t see many of these coming up for sale these days. Real, working players are hanging onto these. Theses amps are THAT good, period. I highly recommend this amp to anyone seeking a high quality, reliable Fender amp that can do just bout everything with a Tele plugged into it. By the way, my amp tech at Savage Audio loves this amp! Enough said.
