    wait a minute.

    that says "a division of columbia record distribution corp" on the switch panel. is that a silverface coverted to blackface? it must be. something's not right. yet it's got the right circuit number.

    oh wait. they sold in 65. must be a 66 or 67.

    I think it means it is a very early 67 maybe. Ask McCready to see if it says that on his Vibro Champ, if it dosen't then this amp is after the sale, It's to old looking to be a silverface redo. I'd say early 67 before they changed models.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    Maybe if you're lucky Magnum will let you drive the Ferrari.

    I'll check the Vibro-Champ when I get home...

    It's either original blackface, or a great re-do. The grill is wheatcloth, not silver/blue cloth.

    That fucker is in seriously great condition... the tolex looks brand new. If it wasn't for the oxidation on the top rails... still, it might have been recovered.

    The date codes indicate a '66 or '67.

    That price is pretty high with 8+ days to go. That's so clean, I don't blame 'em. I'll have to find one with torn cloth, ripped tolex, and a blown transformer to be able to afford one. I want a blackface, that's for sure...
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.
