I am selling my wonderful '71 non-master volume silverface Twin Reverb amp finally basically due to lack of use and space. I just had it blackface mods(very good as it was non-master volume) done and new JJ tubes installed last year and it's seen only studio use since 2006. I've only turned it and used it for recording maybe 3 times since the new tubes and blackface mod were done last year. I have 2 different vinyl covers and the original footswitch. Works perfectly and sounds wonderful! It has 1 Kendrick brown frame boutique 12" speaker and 1 stock replacement speaker. I would like to sell this locally hence the Craig's list ad that I'll post the link to below but I suppose it could be shipping but buyer will pay for the shipping. Of course there is cosmetic wear and tear but I have maintained this amp very well since purchasing in 2001. At one point, I replaced the reverb tank as it had one of incorrect size when I bought it. The cable leading to the tank were also replaced as well as one of the speakers with the Kendrick brown frame. You will not find a nicer sounding silverface Twin. This is basically a 100 watt blackface Twin now after mods and being that is much easier to bias the tubes now. It is also pretty loud but also sounds just great at lower volumes.
$800 plus shipping. I want it to go to someone who appreciates it like I do as this is an all tube, hand wired classic!

I'm still going to have to sell this amp as I am running out of space and have 3 other amps. This is a chance to get a good deal on a great hand wired vintage amp. Still looking for $900. shipping in the US 48 would probably run you about $85-$100 but would still prefer pickup if you're close enough. I'm zip code 75961

The blackface conversion was done my my tech, Steve Bounds of Tejas Amplifier Technology. He used to be the amp tech at Rockin' Robin in Houston for many years I believe. It sounds amazing and I really wish I could keep it. It doesn't get enough use and I tend to use smaller amps when recording now. I put the brown frame in myself with the help of a friend about 5 years ago and again, it has not been gigged much since 2006, before the conversion.
