  • great guitar playing BG

  • Which speakers inside ?

  • SPANKY!

    

  • Hey I got an idea, we don't we watch a non-moving amp for four minutes.

    Great playing i just wish i could see it.

  • Is this amp much different from the blues junior?

    Is the vibrato really useful?

  • pricey guitar aye?

  • I just bought one of these,Killer tone

  • The 6L6GC tube in an American Legend... The 1st amps Jim Marshall built in England contained them also...

  • Comment removed

  • No compressor

  • are you using a compressor?

  • Thats a UL amp

  • @dickdog1 wats is a ul amp

  • @Bbenderman Hey. Means Ultralinear "Hi-Fi" Transformer. They suck.

  • Very Killer Tone Man...and feeling! Very nice!

  • Excellent sound !!!

  • love this amp, seems to be the best sounding clean fender next to a twin... does having no mid contol get frustrating?

  • What's the difference between this amp and the Custom Vibrolux® Reverb?

  • Big difference Custom Vibrolux sound more like - Vox Negative feedback 6L6

  • ...I can hear a diference...what about the speakers? Is the biggest difference rapresented by the 6L6 ore there is a difference also in the circuit?

    Do you like the Custom Vibrolux to be a modern amp or not really? I find it weak with the distortion...

  • @Bbenderman strange as the main difference between this and the CVR ist that the custom doesn't have negative feedback ;)

  • love the sound of a vibrolux!!!!

  • wouah!

  • nice tone quality, throw a compressor in there and you nailed that Brad Paisley chicken picken tone :) I also own a vibrolux, mine is a '68 I use a 52 RI Tele and a Godin LGXT this amp brings out the quality in both guitars. I hear alot of bashing silverfaced fenders, but they are a handwired amp and "boutique" amps have studied THIS amp as their layout... look it up.

  • @jsnbey

    From what I understand, '68-'69 Vibrolux's are almost identical to the Blackface circuit.

    Only some of the SilverFace later models sucked...most of the early SF Fenders are awesome amps. I have a late 70's Princeton and Deluxe that were "blackfaced" and for the price, you can't beat that tone!

  • I play some Stevie Ray Vaughn on the end

  • man, I just got mine today from my grandpa, sounds like this would be sweet with some Stevie Ray Vaughn...

  • WOW you're a lucky guy

  • what do u guys think about plexis? how come these great blues amos r so in expensive and plexis are like 3400

  • Well first, the Plexi amplifiers like the JTM45 are way older than the vibrolux series and much rarer for all original ones since there were fewer of them made. Also, you can pay well into the $3000 range for a BLACKFACE Vibrolux and just as much or more for old tweed amps of the same age as plexis. There's a lot more to be said on the matter that won't fit within a comment, message me if you are interested still.

  • I got my black face 64 vibroverb for $1800 2 yrs ago-yeahaa

  • See, that's a sweet deal. You can find them here and there for prices like that in certain places, but if you try to buy one from a dealer or a shop, you'll pay.

  • Very twangy nice

  • Good demo!

  • Really nice,mate!

    Have u try the Fender Vibrolux Reverb custom that r making these days??R as good at this?

  • in answer to your question, im just a random person by the way, buy and old Vibrolux like this one and find a really good tube amp service guy. dont buy the reissues of Fenders amps. You can find really really nice old Vibrolux's for under a thousand dollars. really cheap for how good they are. the old ones i mean.

  • YEAH mate that´s the problem i don´t know any guy how can do a repair or anything in a good old amp,like it may need!

  • if there is a Fender service center near you, you can take it to them. who better to work on it than Fender. Anyways. just thought i would leave a comment. It didnt look like anybody else answered it so i thought id help you out. I have a guy that looks after mine because as much as i know i do not want to mess with those things. Im scared ill get shocked to death even when the amp has sat for a few days. LOL the thought of a shock scares me. ha ha!

  • Wow, awesome tone!

  • True story> I found one of these being wheeled down the street in a shopping trolly by a student who was looking to flog it to raise some money for his rent. I gave him 50 quid and got a lovely 70s Vibrolux Reverb!

  • nice video!this amp is ok with a Fuzz??

  • I don't get why three people gave you a thumbs down, but to answer your question: I have a '69 Twin Reverb and it brings the best out of any overdrive/distortion/fuzz I run through it. These old Fenders sound amazing straight and serve as a great foundation for pedals.

  • i don't understood too....thank you so much for your answer..

    bye..

    Andrew

  • why thumbs down??

  • I just picked up a '76 Vibrolux Reverb. if it sounds half as good as yours, I'll be one happy camper!!

  • I have a '75 and it rocks! If you can, crank it all the way. The overdrive is amazing.

  • Nice tone. Gotta get one of these. And of course it sure doesnt hurt the tone playing a 62 Strat.

  • Great sound !!

  • but i must say it's not easy to play clean through a fender amp.

    The tone is fantastick.

    but you can forget to hide Mistakes.

  • Ha! The SRV sound is exactly what I was hoping to hear! In fact "Pride and Joy" is what I always play when checking out clean amps!

    Waht number was the volume cranked up to for that part? Do you need to use earplugs?

  • but i must say it's not easy to play clean through a fender amp.

    The tone is fantastick.

    but you can forget to hide Mistakes.

  • Fantastic tone. It doesn't get any cleaner than that. BTW, It's really refreshing to see a video where the amp in question has been properly mic'ed! Well done.

  • Thank you SMR2K

    Hope more people write comments.

  • Very well recorded. That's the best Fender demo I can remember hearing here. A pleasure to listen to. Love the amp.

  • so warm sounding!

  • what do you think about the sound of both channels blended?

  • Ha..Ha...Ah, I hear that country picker...what's his name...Albert somthing? Oh, I dig the guitar knob! I did that too once! LOL!

  • Albert Le^^

  • Kinda Sounds like my Deluxe...My Deluxe is no average Deluxe However $2K...It literally sounds like your standing in front of a Super Reverb when it's cranked...Parallel channel boost is fucking Wild and gives it balls it never had...

    Yes, great Tone....I just love to strum those open Low E Chords, don't you! He..He..Makes me just MELT!

  • Maaaan you're gettin' your twang on!!! Rockin vid, nice tone!

  • Amazing tone! Silverfaces are sick. What level was the volume at during the first part and then what was it at cranked? Im interested in buying one but i wanna make sure it dosent break up too early. Thanks alot

  • Silver face fenders have THE BEST reverb

    i have a twin first year master volume and wouldn't part with it

  • silver face amps seem have a compressor built in

  • great sound, love it

  • A guy at work said he had Fender amp in his mothers storage shed. He brought it to work and it is (I think ) a 73 or 74 Vibrolux Reverb. Its not working at the moment but it will be soon.

  • nice playing bro. it tickled my earholes just how i like it.

  • No effects yoused only ampv own reverb.

    Strings 010 Exlir

    But The Strat have eric johnson neck.

  • Hi Man what Delay ae you using for this awesome tone?

  • what are your strings and settings man

  • nice amp man,i have de same silverface(1974)..

  • Great! I can feel the difference between non-master and master volume models, yours sounds great. Clean and cold like it should be in country music! ;-)

  • Nice playing and tone!

  • Very sweet.  Thanks for sharing.
