My newest addition to my Fender family is a 90's reissue of the 59 Bassman. Its tweed, but no lacquered like the new LTDs. Any hints on how to clean it? Its pretty dusty, inside and out.

I knew someone who had the same kind of un-laquered tweed amp before. He spilled a beer on it. I think he said he cleaned it using Woolite.

Use a vacuum with upholstery brush, If you have stains, try (on the bottom first) some spray and wipe upholstery cleaner...Use caution don't apply to much... Good luck with the clean up

Thanks gang! I feel more confident in the vaccuum than I do the cleaner, yikes! Hate to stain it worse, although I think it is mostly dust.
