I have seen inside the chassis, it's all untouched and very neat. Clean as well as the amp was always covered it's whole life .
The work on the inside of the cab is very clean. No sloppy drilling or uneven holes. They are very sturdy as well.
NAD !!! 1963 Fender Deluxe
I happened across this nice little amp by pure coincidence and am very grateful for it.
The tremolo is just out of this world.
It's a 1963 Fender Deluxe with a factory upgrade JBL , (Oxford was stock??)
Only things not original are tubes and the tilt back legs. We are not sure on the tilt legs as I can't find much if they were ever offered as an option or if maybe this was some prototype as Fender did shortly go to Blackface amps in mid 1963 and I believe the Vibrolux did possibly come with them but I could be wrong ??? The gentleman who owned this had it for many many years and he said he got it like this .
It also has the very very rare dark brown rubber handle . They were originally leather but Fender used a brown rubber for a very short time . This rubber was very brittle and most broke shortly after purchase. Fenders answer to this was to go to the more hefty black rubber ones we know today. Most of the brown ones don't exist today .
Here are some shots of it :
