I have a 1969 Fender Twin Reverb that is in absolute perfect condition and I'm wondering what it is worth? I have an unfilled out warrenty card and the schematics. I can provide pictures

What is "perfect condition"? Does that mean it has cheated the test of time and somehow looks like it was just build yesterday, or was it cosmetically and/or electronically restored at some point? I would imagine that matters.

Likewise, Fender amps from model year 1969 are among the least desirable due to the incessant (and totally unnecessary) tampering by CBS engineers who convinced themselves that they could out-Leo Leo. Thus, tone was sacrificed and max output reduced in a misguided effort to "improve" the product line. It wasn't until late in the year that many of the more onerous modifications were reversed with the AA1069 circuit revision.

I would think a non-JBL model w/out an original cover would be under $1000, more likely nearer to $700.
