Yes, I did. It came by courier today. It must have been lost in the mail for 35 years. It's a 1970 - 73 Vibro Champ; I mentioned my intentions to buy earlier, somewhere? Shocked

I believe it's made by Fender, eh? Laughing

Silver face and there's a long tail on the "r".

Well good golly Miss Molly. It really WAS stored in somebody's closet for over 30 years, is all clean, no dust (as in covered), original and smells fabric softener fresh.

Tone??? Oh yes, a full 6 watts of blistering Fender tube treats, with vibrato of course? Nice size, 8" speaker and only 20 pounds.

I like it. Wink

A good site, I appreciate the hosts. Lots of info. I'll put some tire shine on mine, and go head to head, combo to combo. Shocked

Very, very nice, Dwight! Most excellent acquisition. Those are very fine little blues boxes. Cool
