I played actively in the late 60's-80's

I subsequently bought an amp that was labeled a Fender Showman Amp. The amplifier is about the size I remember the 1965 Deluxe Reverb being.

I remember the showman being an amp with a small head and a huge speaker box that contained either 2-15" speakers or 4 or 6 - 10" speakers.

Since the designs of these devices has changed over the years, I was wondering how I might find out what I actually have, whether it is authentic, and how I can get a knob for the equalizer on it.

Yes-Yes Welcome! Just wondering if this big boy has a silver face plate and tubes. You know, the Showman Reverb(TLF5000D) heads were quite a bit larger than the non-reverb heads. There are no speakers in the cab,right? Art
