Assuming it's in good shape, $300 is a great price. I seem to remember that the 65 reissues were introduced around '94 (someone else can probably help you more) but they are robust amps and a year or two difference either way won't matter. A lot of the originals from the '60s are still going strong.

We gigged with my DRRI last night in a 300-seat theater (I was actually playing bass, but the guitarist used my Deluxe) and it was very easy to set up and dial in. They are a little heavy for their power, but that's the price you pay for all-tube topology.

Who gives a ratsass???

For $300 it doesn't matter. It wouldn't matter if it was $500.

Write the check!
