Soon to be Parted
This is just a quick post to say that I am, regrettably selling my beloved ’63 Brown Fender Concert amplifier. I have had this amp since 2002, but since relocating to South East Asia, it has been carefully take care of by a good friend and fellow amp lover in the UK.
The amp has been listed on Ebay and there is already quite a lot of interest in it. It’s really sad to know that soon I will no longer have one of Leo Fender’s best ever amplifiers (in my opinion), but I can’t use it where I am, so I would rather it gets some love and attention from someone who can take it out for a run regularly and maybe teach it some new tricks!
I have moved over to the dark side a little really. For convenience and seeing as I needed a new audio interface for my recording system I got myself an Avid Eleven Rack amp simulator. I have been so impressed with it that it shaping up to be my main amplification of choice for all applications from studio to stage.
I still would love to think that I’ll have a big amp again in the future. I absolutely love the 4×10 configuration, so a Bassman LTD or a Super Reverb Reissue would be cool or even a 3×10 Vibroking.
I still have my Princeton Recording Amp and my Champion 600, but fort the most part I have gone digital (I’m still a bit shocked about that myself!)
So if you fancy getting hold of a fine example of Fender’s history then check out the Fender Concert Amp on Ebay.
