  • 1973 Fender Vibrosonic Reverb – Silverface – 100 Watt – 1×15″ Combo

    A powerful and beautifully preserved 1973 Fender Vibrosonic Reverb, featuring the classic silverface look, original 15″ Fender orange‑label speaker, and the huge clean headroom these amps are famous for. This model is essentially a 100‑watt Twin Reverb circuit voiced through a single 15″ speaker — a favourite among pedal steel players, country guitarists, and anyone who wants rich, full, room‑filling clean tone.

    This example is in VG–Excellent condition, fully functional, and has been well cared for throughout its life.

Speaker: This Vibrosonic Reverb retains its original Fender PS‑15 speaker, manufactured by Cetec Gauss. These Gauss drivers were premium, high‑efficiency speakers used by Fender in the early 1970s and are now highly sought after for their exceptional clarity, tight low‑end response, and ability to handle the full 100 watts of clean Fender power. A superb match for this amp and a valuable original component.
