Used the brown Deluxe again last weekend at a bigger venue and it sounded great there too! the Celestion Gold speaker is breaking in nicely...

Case sold

Digging and gigging my 1961 Fender Deluxe Amp! The brown amps tend to be overlooked, underrated or be over shadowed by the Tweeds and Blackfaces...this amp sounds chunky! And of course will scream when dimed. I don't dime mine. I run it at about 5 for a gutsy rhythm sound. I swapped out the stock Ox...

Black ABS case for a Les Paul or similar single cut solidbody guitar. Excellent except the little strap that keeps the lid from flopping completely back when the case is open is missing.
