Description
An original vintage 1963 Fender Pro-Amp 1x15 tube combo amplifier. Made for only a couple of years in the late Pre-CBS era, the Pro-Amp is one of the rarest Black Panel amps. With its single 15-inch speaker, the only other tonally-comparable Fender amp is the coveted Vibroverb. The Pro features a circuit nearly identical to the Vibroverb--sans the reverb. This example is in great shape and is largely original save for some maintenance replacements. Just re-capped with a new set of F&T filter caps. This amp has been cleaned and tested. It is fully functional and sounds fantastic.
