I have a Silverface Tube Reverb Unit I got new in the '70's - it was the first reissue of the '60's reverb unit and it has an extra tube to improve the sound (somehow). Anyways, since I got it I've accumulated a number of Fender tube amps each with built-in spring reverb, so I really never use it. I'm wondering if it is worth trying to sell or if it was 'improved' the way the later Silverface amps were making it relatively worthless. It's in perfect shape and sounds great to me, but I've never had to chance to A/B it with an original unit. I see lots of new and old black and brown and blond ones for sale, but never any silver ones to get an idea what they go for.

It's virtually worthless. If you give me fifty bucks, I'll swing by your place and pick in up then take it to the dump for you.

When your flush w/ combo's that have reverb and no intention of adding a non-reverb model maybe 50-65% of the originals.
List it on Ebay/Reverb/Craigslist for a week w/ whatever # you would consider selling it for. I'm sure you'll get plenty of responses.
