Fender 64 Super Reverb, I have the original.

For questions about the way the speaker writing.

pre-cbs do not know about the serial number is ab763,
Although there is no sound and no more than the speaker says it was a was a jensen loudspearker special design.

Not exactly jensen loudspeaker special design. jensen mfg. co chicago, made in USA was that said.

In the original, two 64 SUPER REVERB Amplifier Speaker would like to know.

I once owned a 1965 BF Super Reverb and if I remember correctly it had 4 x 10-inch Jensen "Special Design" alnicos. Seemed that all Fenders had "special designed" speakers. Whatever that meant. I believe it was an AA763 circuit.

So your unit has no more speakers? Not quite sure what the problem is.

The inside of the back of my 1964 Super Reverb. Sorry no better close-up, but do your speakers look like these? These were 100% original and numbers correct for the year. I might have a closer shot somewhere, but I sold the amp a while back - for $2,408.

Those speakers are Oxfords, Dennis.

If I'm understanding the OP's question correctly, the speakers should be ink-stamped "2204XX" on the rim of the frames. The "220" is Jensen's EIA manufacturer code, the "4" is the final digit in the year the speaker was made, and the "XX" will be two numbers designating the week within that given year.

As well, there will likely be a model number that reads "C10R" or C10Q", also on the rim. Next to that will be a company production code which holds little interest in this discussion. All vintage Jensens were manufactured in Chicago, Illinois. It wasn't until recently that the name and all production was moved to Italy.

those speakers in your 65 BFSR may be CTS ceramics. Had them in mine before I opted for the CTS alnicos. The Oxfords had a similar basket except instead of the "swiss cheese" holes had elongated cutouts. That mags prob have a 137 xxx number on them . The 137 being CTS.
The OPs amp has Jensens......prob C10Rs......
