I ran into a friend last night who told me he was going to order a 64' Vibroverb clone from Marsh Amplification. He asked me if I knew anything about them which I didn't. I did look at their website and they have everything from Princeton Reverbs to Supers etc. Prices seemed pretty cheap for fully assembled hand wired amps. Does anyone have any experience with them and how accurate are they. I'm surprised they can use the "Vibroverb" name.

May be it is like patent, after a certain time the name returns "public" and not longer preserved. :wink:

The '63 is 6G16 (like tweed generation)
The '64 is AA763 (optocouping for vib) (wouha ! :!: )

The 6G16 Vibroverb bore little resemblance to the previous tweed circuits with its closest ancestor being the 6G4-A Super Amp, albeit with the bias-modulated tremolo rather than the 3-tube "harmonic" type common among the other mid-power brownfaces of the era.
