Hi HVYMTLHD80,

To post pics, they must be uploaded to a publicly accessible site such as PhotoBucket. Once uploaded to the site, each pic will have an "IMG" code that you can copy and paste into your post here. Once the link is pasted, click "Preview" or "Submit" and the pics will be visible. Other picture sites require that you hover over the picture, right click, copy image location, then paste that link into your post, then highlight the link and bookend using the IMG button above your post.

Lessons in etiquette and manners notwithstanding, the amp's a pre-CBS model built in the 32nd week of 1964. Definitely worthy of restoration and certainly worth the twenty-dollar purchase price. I could easily save this one......

Nice score!

Nice score. I would have jumped and bought it too. I would like to see under the hood when you get a chance.

Certainly wasn't trying to be insulting; and sight unseen it could have literally been a mess inside. I bought my 65 Bandmaster a few years back for $250 and that was after seeing pictures and talking to the guy. From looking at the pics you've got a fine amp to work on.

I'd cool it on the attitude and you'll find people are more than willing to offer advice and help. There are tons of incredibly knowledgable people on this board, but only if you act professional and courteous. You also just insulted one of the top Fender amp gurus on the board, so good luck with that...
