I checked the reviews on Harmony Central on the Fendr 30 and they said that this amp has a Tube Rectifier and Tube driven reverb and it is a fully point to point handwired amp (no PCB circuit boards); it was also only made for one year and some were 1x12 and some were 2x10 so there are only a few hundred of them around. Quite rare. It is basically like a Fender Pro Blackface circuit with some added boost and extra gain to the 2nd channel.
IMO Any decent Tube amp tech should be able to fix this for less than $100. Note that one HC Fender 30 owner stated he had a similar problem with his amp: " Had an arcing problem due to shorted screen resistor. Common in Fender amps. Easy fix, did use higher wattage resistors."
Note: I have a Rivera era Fender Concert amp and I love it. It is a serious rock n roll amp. - JC
- Fender Concert And Silvertone 1482 Tube Amps In Madison Wi
This seller is offering a pair of nice tube amps. the first is an early 80's Fender Concert Reverb - Rivera designed for only $495 and he is also selling a nice little Silvertone 1482 (though no pic in the listing) for only $295 which is a good deal....
- 1980 Fender Rivera 75 Tube Combo Amp In Portland Area For $350
The seller had this amp listed at $400 a year ago and has dropped it to $350. Designed by Ed Jahns (not Paul Rivera who was hired by Fender the following year), the Fender 75 is one of the first and maybe "the" first channel switching Fender amp. They...
- 1981 Fender Pro Reverb 2x12 Tube Amp In Sicklerville Nj For $400
Don't confuse this 1981 Fender with the later Pro Tube Series of circuit board amps - this amp is PTP wired just like the 70's amps - Fender just switched over to blackface panels again for the 1981 and 1982 model years. These were the last of...
- 1981 Fender Vibrolux Reverb Outside Boston Ma For $750
These early 80's Fender PTP amps are still a good deal - like this Vibrolux. This is basically a Fender Bassman on the 1st channel side and a hot roddded Deluxe Reverb on the 2nd Channel side - with two tens. Very nice setup designed by Paul Rivera...
- Fender 75 Ptp Tube Amp In Cincinatti For $425
Next to a Mesa Boogie or an Ampeg VT-120 this is probably one of the the loudest compact 112 tube amps you can find.- and it includes the hard to find (and pricey) original footswitch as well. I can't speak for the green tolex (huh?) but it might...
