Here is a seller offering a nice Fender Concert Head (also known as the Concert II). This is one of the Paul Rivera line of Fender amps that included the Super Champ. These are nice amps with a complex multi gain stage and several push-pull knobs to add brightness and other goodies. I used to own a Concert 1x12 and it was a great amp - too much of an amp for me really - it is a 60 watt output but mine got really loud. I never played it above about 3 or 4 (and I like to play loud - ask my neighbors).
The only thing this one may be missing is the footswitch, which is a shame because they are hard to come by and you can't use a normal two button TRS switch, you would have to make or find one.
This seller is asking a very reasonable price. One of these just sold today on eBay for $406 + $75 shipping. When I got rid of mine I traded it straight up for a Gibson Blues Hawk which is worth about $900 (but mine was also modified and signed by Lee Jackson so it was a very special amp).

For Sale - 1985 (Riviera-era) Fender Concert (II) Amplifier. This is a real classic, with a fantastic sound, I have used the amazing tube sound of this amp to warm up a digital (Line6 POD, etc) guitar chain during recording. It is in very good condition considering its age, mostly due to its studio use.
I am an engineer, not a guitarist, and while I have loved having this guy around I rarely do tracking anymore and I feel this classic piece of gear would be better suited for someone who can really take advantage of it. I've included a few pics, but you'll need to google it for in-depth specs.
Thanks!

- 1985 Gibson Les Paul Studio In Apple Valley Ca For $650
This looks like a pretty nice Les Paul Studio from 1984 or 1985 (seller says 1985 so I believe him). This was the last year with the dot fret markers and this would have an alder cap as well (not maple) and a maple neck (not mahogany). ...

I don't know exactly what a 1985 les Paul Studio is wotrth but this one looks pretty clean so no matter what that is a good price on a 25 year old USA Gibson. I think the Black Studios are very cool - and those should be some very nice classic...

Okay, I guess I am bored so I decided to add up the known ages of my current guitar collection. Right now I have 24 guitars (sick I know) and the total ages adds up to 570 years - so if you divide that by 24 comes out to 23.75 years on avg. If...
