1965 Fender Blackface Deluxe Reverb needing Tremolo and Reverb Repair

This video features one of Fender's greatest achievements, the BF Deluxe Reverb. The chassis arrived in excellent cosmetic condition and required a full recapping, biasing of output tubes, and a rather challenging repair of both the Tremolo and Reverb effects. If your DR has problems in these areas, this video will explain how to track down the cause. Naturally, at the conclusion of the repair segment we thoroughly test all amp functions and provide an audio demonstration.
In addition, with Jack & KC's help, we will open two gift boxes from a very generous Canadian viewer and then proceed to the Part 2 video in which I will discuss the evolution of the Tweed Deluxe amp circuits, beginning with the 5A3 and ending with the magnificent 5E3.

Doug, it's always a pleasure to see your meticulous work restoring these venerable old amps and giving them a new lease of life with really simple fixes. Makes me wonder how many modern digital devices will still be running in fifty-six years. I don't imagine anyone will be replacing FPGA chips in 2077, all those broken Kempers will be in landfill and I imagine the 1965 Fender Deluxe will just need another recap.

[@UncleDoug]

I tend to agree, Frank, and it's one reason that I work on them......they deserve it ;)

[@qua7771]

It doesn't take much corrosion from humidity to destroy most modern devices with surface PCB mounted components. I left a cheap pedal in my garage tool chest for 9 months by mistake. That was enough to ruin it. I get the feeling modern products are designed with the land fill in mind.

[@davebollinger8863]

The chassis plater must have put that batch in and then took a long lunch. Lol. I was yelling "check the 5y3" I can't believe you couldn't hear me. Good to see you back on the tube.

[@nevillegoddard4966]

Gidday uncle Doug! Well done mate! Finally, someone on yt has given a full & proper explanation of the correct, SAFE method of connecting up the incoming mains power through to the power transformer! I'm so glad it was you! 😊👏👏👏! You fault finding procedure was clear & precise, & I especially liked your 'trick' of hooking up your test speaker to the reverb driver transformer output to test that stage. What a great idea! It's a shame a new tank was required though, but I guess reverb tank output transformers are just too tiny & fragile to try to work on aren't they? The very few I've seen appear to be, with ridiculously fine wires, & glued-in little magnets in them that may need careful alignment & calibration. They're not expensive so a replacement was the wisest choice, despite you having found the broken wire on the input side. I was just wondering if the customer may have requested an EARTHED mains auxillary output socket as well as the removal of the death capacitor, he wasn't very clear on this. I really liked your analysis & discussion of the development of the Fender circuit over the models too. Another stellar video of yours that I could easily watch again!

[@UncleDoug]

Thanks so much, Neville. The only unobtrusive way to provide a grounded auxiliary output is to use an intermediate 3 to 2 prong adapter with a ground wire to connect to the chassis. So few people use the auxiliary outlet that it is rarely an issue
