Hi. I have a Fender cabinet that seems a bit wide, 28 inches, and I was wondering if it could be a real fender amp, and in case, what amp should go in it. It has a Gibbs reverb and a pre 73 logo on it. It also has two Jensen 1966 C12N in it. Any ideas?

If you can post some photos - the real experts on here can help you.

You can also try to check it against the dimensions given at such sites as Ampwares. You can filter your results by era and amp.

But photos and full dimensions (height, width, and depth) would help.

Pics of the speakers and inside the cabinet will help too! A pair of '66 Jensen C12Ns if original likely means Bassman or Bandmaster cab.

With a Gibbs reverb tank?

:shock:

Likely, it's a Pro Reverb or Twin Reverb combo cab.

Pics would confirm.

So friggin' what?

Every piece of Fender gear with reverb made up until the late 1970's was equipped with a Gibbs or Hammond tank.

Go back to school.
