Fender Pro Reverb Amp

[@rogerwilliams2629]

11 years later I'm enjoying this beautiful tone. Thank you, and I hope you're still pickin..

[@vintagestratplayer]

The pro reverb brings the room alive

[@gRosh08]

I realize this is an older post, but I just made it here today, and it sounds great! Thanks for the share.

[@radman1102]

if it's a 40 watter, it's early 70''s... they upped the wattage later in the series... also, looks like it has master vol, which was added mid 70's thereabouts...

[@user-rd1om2wx1e]

Wow what a nice sounding amp.

[@gokartkid25]

I just sent my pro reverb into to get new tubes and be biased. Love this amp. Great sounding.

[@electricchurchmusic4298]

still have the amp ?

[@Manolian]

Fender's pro reverbs are one of their best amps ever , along with the super reverb and vibrolux reverb. I have a '74 which has the greatest tone of any other Fender amp I own, they sound awesome with both Les Pauls,and Strats.

[@losrogers13]

You sound perfect. Thank you for sharing this

[@BrockDavisson]

This is mid 70's for sure... I just got a 1973 fender pro reverb yesterday. Traded about $600 worth of stuff to get it, well worth it!

[@CrippeJohansson]

Man That´s a really sweet tone you got going on there ! Thank you for your kind words on my video means alot you are really really great on the guitar, great feeling. And man It´s just to realize we have the same taste when it comes to amps, a great taste ;-) keep in touch /crippe - sweden

[@kicsipupi]

these are the sounds that u can't get tired of:)

[@JLE999]

Sounds killer. Total “Hey Joe” Hendrix tones

[@7ona8]

Lovely amp sound demo. Sweet playing.

[@BCRSIX]

Wow, thanks for the settings. I think I have this same exact amp. Bought it a few years ago, and it's been sitting in a closet. Just got it out last night, and was shocked by how good it sounds. I'm going to start using it, maybe even as my main amp.

[@JapanVintageStrategy]

wow lucky you! 65 Pro Reverb..that must be the fortune!! yup, great amp, i fell in love when i first plug into this at the store....

[@marcobrocchini5276]

I have a 1970 on 22th week of the year and ive got lucky to find it in mint condition and i love it!!!

[@fredfunf3456]

Wow, that sounds lovely

[@MarcelRGuimond]

I had a Pro-Reverb in the early seventies. I got is used and it had a problem where the tube plates would glow red hot so you could only use it for a couple minutes. The problem turned out to be a non-functional winding in the multi-tap power transformer than provided the grid voltage bias for the power output tubes. The glowing plates was because there was no grid voltage to hold back the plate current. I bought a cheap transformer to provide the required grid voltage and the amp was basically restored. The clean overdrive character of the pro-reverb is virtually unrivalled in the real tube world... a beautiful sparkle that made for a gorgeous shimmer. Not for the extreme high-gain crowd who like running marshals clipping hard at the rails. The pro-reverb has a unique soft clip character that responds well to the dynamics of your playing over a very wide dynamic range... some partly due I suspect to the natural power supply "sag" and natural harmonic distortion of the audio coupling transformer to match the high impedance output stage to the intrinsically low impedance of a typical loudspeaker. I replaced the stock speakers with a couple of high-efficiency electrovoice SRO-12's (classics) so the SPL's were out the roof (as needed in large live situations) yet with the beauty of the "pro" sound. I sold it for a song to a good friend.

[@drewsollars2239]

Great sounding amp and nice chops!

[@andrewisdizzy]

killer playing and tone my friend.

[@vela07]

man, outstanding demo. looks like im gonna go try out out locally now

[@BIGGUNS104]

I wish I had an amp like this. Amazing sund especially in person. My friend has one

[@tonyscardaci2089]

I believe the 74-76 models were master volume and 40-45 watts. . They weren’t push pull masters like the later ones.ive had a 78-9 twin that was 135 watts, so it makes more sense that the pros went up to 70watts at the same time period

[@JapanVintageStrategy]

yes, asking price was just $700. thanks for checking!

[@jassrv]

HELL yah with the way u play its agr8 buy and sounds gr8 too i love it wish i had a fender pro Reverb amp

[@brutalblues]

Great sounding amp. I have the same one except mine has the blackface look...1980-81. Nice playing on your part, too!

[@Dogheadj]

Just bought a '66 Blackface Pro Reverb in excellent shape for $1200.00. Get 'em while you can, boys. The "originals" were only made between '64 and '67. Not many of them out there.

[@stratocaster539]

Mine is an 82.It has cobalt magnet speakers and a black control panel plate.75watts -blows your socks off!

[@goranmarinic2923]

wonderfull sound. totaly worth that money.

[@williamsutube1]

Sounds great!!!

[@GaryCainMusic]

sounds killer man!

[@GaryCainMusic]

You can't get much for $500 these days, and the amp sounds great -- good buy!

[@1388Anthony1]

I have a 1971 JMP 1987 50 watt and it is LOUD!!! My 67 super reverb dimed was about as loud as my Marshall on 4 but not much more. I'm going to try to run a similar rig I love this old marshall nothing like it but I need some vintage fender amp tone in my life as well.

[@popomczowzow]

Definitely worth it. AWESOME amp. Very jealous. You could always sell it to me. You know I have this annoying little brother who's really good a cleaning/chores...

[@mikeaustin4138]

My local used music store has one similar to this one for $699. They also have a PRS SE 50 for the same price. I'll say this: the Pro Reverb demos out on YT much better than does the PRS... I'd say you got a great deal. I had a '70 Twin (silverface, no master volumne) that I put JBLs in after the speakers blew. I hated it; I could not get the sustaining sound I wanted without a distortion pedal (they were very noisy back then). It could blow away a 50-watt Marshall stack for volume, though...

[@GuitarEd48]

What a great sound , I love it and this amp is worth it .

[@Stratosphere18]

The amp sounds great and at an amazing price. cool.

[@thechannel700]

That's a steal.

[@diesect33]

I'm supposed to be trading up for this amp soon. Like the tones and tunes man.

[@andrewjeff]

oh oh superb tone !!!i seen this amp by a guitarist that plays srv ...awesome...

[@geomitu]

Wonderful sound!

[@javiersaulrodriguezmontes3196]

Twang killer..awesome 20!!!

[@Jam-Tracks-Guitar]

wow thats really a nice clear sound!

[@emlyngriffith5846]

I’ve owned what looks like an identical model for over 25 years having bought it second hand. I know nothing about amps and don’t know what year it is (it does have the pull out on the master volume). Always sounded great but now has developed a buzz when the guitar is plugged in. Does it need new valves or a complete refurbish? Whatever….it’s still been a great amp although a tad loud for home use!

[@BrockDavisson]

@Coilcord7 Um, how you get a 65? Thought they didn't make them until around 67?

[@snakestrecher]

riviara paradise, havent heard that in a while. sounds great

[@sakutasu]

The Fender Pro Reverb is a high-end guitar amplifier made by Fender. It was in production from 1965 and was discontinued in 1982. The Pro Reverb is a 40-watt tube amplifier (at 4 ohms) and has a pair 12" speakers; however, models later than 1976 were increased to 70 watts.

[@luckyfamilyman]

great playing awesome amp/guitar , (is that a wood floor) = Smok'n Sound Thanks for pu'tn it out there

[@brunoloco109]

very nice playing

[@anthonyspare]

Picked a ‘66 up this week at a yard sale.

[@DrRussPhd]

lucky bugger

[@gregory49]

haha no checking, just a guess. Enjoy and hang on to that baby. People talk down about the master volumes but that one sounds great!!! Even on you tube ;)

[@tfacemyer]

Look at the stamped numbers on the transformers. That should get you very close. For example: 606-307 = 30th week of 1977 indicated by the 307. Sounds great!

[@stan2211stan]

It sounds nice - you won IMHO.

[@holmes1978]

Excellent Amp !!!

[@dclipper8052]

Many thanks to Ronnie Earl and Stevie for the demo.

[@ryantandy307]

I totally admire Squier jockeys.

[@yamitanomura]

really a good sound. Keep on Rocking!

[@tinkers32]

Great amp!

[@JapanVintageStrategy]

yes it is.

[@massimo52185]

great sound...remember me amps fender stevie ray vaughan.Fantastic

[@electricchurchmusic4298]

I have one too :) 1976 Silver :)))

[@aliveandfilming2]

Should be on the back panel, I know early 70's it's there. I say 1973 ,great shape

[@pbrstreetgang6681]

Superb.

[@bech2002]

its sound really good, sounds like a philip sayce video that i saw on youtube

[@thedonace213]

Pro reverb or Deluxe Reverb or Princeton Reverb? I play at a small church and my room mostly so maybe the Princeton, but you think the Princeton would be able to get loud enough? I love that Riviera Paradise song by the way! haha

[@ciclosonico]

Awesome, I want one!!!

[@kosta224]

Great playing and vid

[@Dogheadj]

Do you have the S/N or tube chart date codes for this amp? Being a Silverface, and not saying "Amp" under the "Pro Reverb" logo, I'd tend to agree with you that this is is probably a mid-seventies amp, but no newer than that, based on what I'm hearing. That thing packs a punch; has great tone; and just sparkles. Who cares what year it is or , for that matter, what brand it is. If it sounds great, that's all that matters.

[@acceptitasitis]

Greasy smooth.

[@BluesCat1980]

This particular Pro Reverb in this video is a late 70's I can tell, because the writing on the front is a two line instead of one line.

[@silverwah100]

@CalJBurns Love the tone. I'm also looking at the same amp, whats the going price in the UK for an early 80's, any idea?

[@BCRSIX]

I have a Pro Reverb like this, but I have never really done anything with it. I played one gig with it about a year ago. I just discovere the "push-pull" on the master volume. Does yours have this? I guess mine must have 70 watts, but it doesn't seam that loud. My "Hot Rod Deluxe" is only 40 watts, but it's just too loud. On gigs I can barely turn it up to 1. That's why I'm looking at my old Pro Reverb.

[@stratdenice]

Sounds good ! Is that a tube amp ?

[@cbmcaixa]

Killer tone! Amp overdrive or camera mic overdrive? I'm searching for a 40W version fearing that the 70W version (such as this one) is a mini-twin that only does cleans

[@armandodiaz67]

I just picked one of these. Planning on sending it to the shop to get it reconditioned. Can you tell me the specs on yours.... speakers, tubes...

[@MyManDan]

nice playing and nice amp!!! I dont know where you found this for $700 but I wish I could be as lucky, if not with this for a deluxe reverb. How loud is this amp when the volume is cranked? Annoyingly?

[@Sylkis89]

is it the silvertone pro reverb, the one with pull-boost and master volume? I was curious of the of the pull-boost distortion, everyone over the net seems to hate it, saying it's too grainy... but I LOVE grainy distortion and wanted to chceck it out, with no luck so far :/

[@carce84]

Great tone! My compliments! Which speakers did you install in the amplifier?

[@jassrv]

aaaww good stuff man and hell yeah its worth it it sounds gr8 5*

[@grazzly1]

I have the opportunity to pick one of these up for a song. I play a Les Paul with Lollar Imps. Would this amp represent well volume-wise alongside a 100 watt JMP at about 4-ish with V30xGreenback cab? I've found Twins to be too hard and clean at a comparable volume with the Marshall.

[@kosta224]

@BCRSIX the push/pull knob on the master volume is distortion! but its not very heavy unless you turn the master volume down for the most effects. can anyone tell me what specific year this twin is from?

[@grafen3teiner]

Awesome sound....volume is on what? Cheers from Hamburg, Germany

[@Luknopfler83]

Totally worth it! ;)

[@stefanerceg89]

what are the speakers in this amp?

[@Dochotshot]

Hey, Great sound you got there! I'm wondering, are you using the stock speakers? Best greetings

[@abnerfm]

Great tone. I didn't know it has a master volume... is it modified?

[@MarcoAzevedo]

great sound!!! this model have 70w?

[@Rockeras]

great!

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

Bright or normal channel?

[@mattius6]

ur all gonna hate me. picked up a 76 pro reverb for $400 this week :D

[@gokartkid25]

I got a 1967 pro reverb. 40 watt. Great amp but can't figure out what's wrong with the reverb. All the signs point ti a bad input cable so I'll have to get the cable.

[@devinpatrickmusic]

Is it for sale?

[@pierr0t1710]

Are you Philip Sayce?

[@emitchsr]

nice fingers

[@Topper285]

can you tell me the settings on the amp? it sounds great!

[@temuri90]

is it only guitar and amp? or are you using pedals here?

[@gregory49]

It's worth it. You could probably sell it to the right person for 700.

[@coughlintm]

its worth i think

[@Tavares60367]

really nice review thank you! i just play using apps just like Bias FX but the original sounds like gourgeous nice playing dude you are the guy and maded 7 envy´s gay unlike this vid! Congrats and keep going.

[@negativeascension]

Does this amp take pedals well?
