Excellent...1953 Fender Deluxe Amplifier

1953 Fender Deluxe Amplifier Wide Panel (model 5B3)We found this beauty in an estate sale in the Midwest. She is in amazing shape. You will see some normal wear and minor stain in certain spots in the tastefully aged tweed cover. No tears or repairs. The grill cover appears to be the original brown mohair in great condition, completing that full vintage vibe. The entire amp has been inspected and set up from stem to stern by our professional electronics tech. Primarily, parts that needed replacement were accomplished with new old stock. We have included a photo of the parts that were replaced and can ship with amp if you ask. The speaker code, original tube dates, and numbers all match up to internal sticker and year. The speaker is the original (unbelievably sweet) Jensen Alnico 5 pm 12” speaker. The original handle has been replaced with a period correct handle at some point and is secure and safe for transport. The old handle, though not functional, can be included if you desire. We had the cord replaced (as is typical for these older amps) with a new three-prong grounded plug so that it is safe and steady. This is a fully tested and restored, plug-and-play amp. The tone and sound of this very rare amp cannot be compared with anything you have ever played. They just don’t make them like this anymore, and have not for years. 66 years young--looks and sounds fantastic! This is an amp for the discerning player or well-informed collector. Don’t miss the chance to add this very rare one to your collection or use it to create true vintage sound like no other.
