yeah amp porn , gotta love it fenders in silver and black something decidedly nasty about that , thanks DVM
 
Thanks ,cant get enough of that vintage stuff .. need more amp porn posted here guys , like Sunvalley says its fun to look at .
 
yeah saw that on ebay the other day. looks excellent but it's a bit expensive considering it's a bit scratched up. but they are worth more than say a regular showman or bandmaster.
 
More amp porn!! Ive posted these before.

Dude, you are hurting me! I have never heard of a 5E3 before, but love that look. The other stuff too! Ok, I can take it. Let's see more!
 
Tone Silverface vibro champs generally run about 350-550.. the 65-82's all had the same circuit but cabinet materials changed in 72-73 , 64-66 blackface cosmetics changed to silverface in 67with the 67-69 having a aluminum trim around the grill cloth commonly refered to as dripedge .Late 69 models lost the dripedge and the champ and vibro champ stayed the same till 82 when a re-designed blackface look appeared ... bottom line is they all sound great its a pretty simple little amp with an amazing sound .. Just a note Tone .. ebay prices are pretty high I've seen silverface vc's go for as high as 800 bucks and nice ones from before 73 with the pine cabinet in the 350-450 range ,they take pedals great , and are a sweet recording amp .6S9L
 
Thanks for the info 6. There is a silver face "VC" sitting in a shop in town for $350. It looks pretty good and it doesn't look like somebody like "me" has messed with the tubes as it's pretty dusty.
