Does anyone know where to find a PDF of the 68 CVR service manual? I can't find anything in a google search. The most likely provider would be manualslib.com, but they require you to install a ViewPDF extension for Chrome, which changes your default search provider among other things, just to get their damned PDF file!! I won't do that.

Well, it turns there isn't a service manual. I finally got Fender customer support on the phone, and all they have is a schematic. There are service manuals for other amps. but not the 68CVR. Go figure.

The schematic is out there on the web - pretty easy to find - I have it. It's the service manual with all the part numbers that apparently doesn't exist. There's a service manual for the '68 Custom Deluxe Reverb, but not for the '68 Custom Vibrolux Reverb.

Apparently, customer support -- as with QC/QA -- has been abandoned at FMIC.
