FS/FT: pre-CBS Fender Super Reverb combo (probably local Boston)

[uOpt]

I have this 1964 Super Reverb. I don't really have space to keep vintage amps. For sale or for trade for vintage instruments or possibly amp heads. Anything easier to store and considered an investment just like this one.

Issues:

• Missing "on" light (right side)
• Mid control for second channel has the pot stuck at "1". No repair attempt made, dunno how easy to fix

Otherwise:

• Works fine and sounds awesome other than issues listed
• Transformers look original to me
• Very nice cosmetic shape with just a bit of discoloring on cloth grille. Hasn't been knocked around.
• Has dual footswitch and it works
• original 2-conductor A/C plug
• Comes with non-original soft cover

The Vintage Guitar Price Guide 2013 issue puts it at $1900-2300 (photo of page available).

Due to pot issue only asking $1750 local pickup around Boston. Willing to drive halfway to NYC or similar distance. Shipping only if you have experience in shipping amps like this and you organize things.

If there's interest I'll do proper photos.

Wish it was tax time, I'd like to see Boston.

Hi there,

Apologies for being a complete and utter forums noob, but I'm really interested in your Super. Is it still available? If so, any chance you could take some pictures of the guts? Would love to send them to my amp tech so he can eyeball things. Many thanks for your response. And happy new year!

Bump.

Would like to reduce space, guitars and basses are so much easier.
