Fender Vintage Reissue '65 Super Reverb Guitar Combo Amplifier (40 Watts, 4x10") Customer Review
Sound:
I have one of the originals that I bought used in 1974. Still works GREAT!!!
Feature:
Yes- foot switch. If you play a Fender Guitar you MUST have Fender Amp!!!
Quality:
Had to replace some caps about ten yrs ago. Never needed a back up. Use it on the road or any where else. I do one man shows and it works for me as I use one challel for mic and one for my `79 Strat.
Manufacturer Support:

"TheOnlyAmpForMePeriod~"
Sound:
This is the epitome of the tube amp tone (for me) and I have tryed them all... from "Z's" to "Boogies". And something about 4 10's - it's just "it" - period. I have had two 68's and one 69, all 3 were great performers and this one is the sweetest tone of the 4. This amp is "alive"~
Feature:
They replaced the foot switch connectors to a common jack - can't mix up the reverb with the vibrato, nice logical improvement~
Ease of Use:
Setup is subjective obviously but I have used the same on all 4 amps, I use the second input on the vibrato channel (little less gain)bass and treble dials on 10, mid is on zero (just me) and reverb on about 2.4 - just a flavour. Volume based on the room but if you play where you can turn up and use the amp's natural overdrive - there is NOTHING better~
Quality:
They built 'em right then and they do so now - very high quality craftsmanship on mine - it rivals a work of art in my eyes, front & back~
Manufacturer Support:
Fender has always been very helpful to me - even in advise for non-Fender trained techs... they seem to care about their stuff (guys I have delt with anyway)
Value:
Superb value - per-dollar value is better on this amp than anything I own (car, house...)
The Wow Factor:
Like I said, my 4th one, I have tried everything and honestly know I would not be happy with anything else. It's not right for everyone i.e. to choke and smother this amp's natural tone with one of those peddel barrages like some folks use - well, that would be Satanic, pointless - buy a modeling amp~
Overall:
I hobnestly may get another one purely for backup some day but no plans for another amp - ever (unless this one catches fire or is stolen~)Would never need anything else and I have had played 50 seat clubs and 2500 seat arenas, outdoor arenas... you just don't need anything more than this amp and I have RARELY put a mike on it - it kills the value of the 4 10's and if you are going to "line out" to the PA - you might as well plug your peddel collection right into the PA because the sound and tones of the amp are completely lost~

"honest advise from experience"
Sound:
i'm a tone freak, and this thing surpasses even my wildest expectations. it holds true to the name fender and is about as beautiful an amplifier as i've ever heard. i use it with a TS-9 and an old CE-1 chorus pedal, and hardly feel the need to turn either on for most songs. one suggested tone tip: derek trucks uses car audio speakers instead of the standard speakers that come with the amp. they absolutely s@@k, but it makes the dirtiest, sweetest distortion i've ever heard. he plugs straight in with no effects.
Feature:
i hate baudiness and extras unneeded for real tone. like i said, i barely use the effects i own. perhaps the best feature non-tone related is the kick back stands on each side. i'm a gigger, and when you play bars and smaller venues, that's so very essential to being able to turn down to give your soundman room to opperate and still be able to hear yourself.
Quality:
the only problems i had with the original super were the lack of a master volume and the unreliability of the amp. the reason derek trucks uses car audio speakers is becuase the originals quit on him right before a gig, and a car audio store was the only place open. it led him to better things, but i prefer a safe and efficient amp. fender fixed both with the reissue, adding the details of the later models, but staying true to the original tone. very cool
Manufacturer Support:
i've never had to call fender or ask for anything, so i have no way to say good or bad.
Value:
yes
The Wow Factor:
i don't have one. i want it so much it pains me. i play through gear i despise at this moment (minus the pedals) and am saving money as best i can while going to college to buy one soon.
Overall:
i've waited two years to buy this product, testing everything i could get my hands on. i keep coming back to the super reverb like a dog for a bone. i don't think i'll ever have to replace it. i've seen steve sweney and derek trucks both play through this marvel of amplifiers in outdoor venues and small venues alike, and the truth of the matter is, it's loud enough to dominate the stage, let the soundman dominate the crowd
