    Best places to look for vintage Fender amps

    Hi, I'm new here and hope this question hasn't been asked to death here. I can find tons of places to look at vintage guitars on line. some have vintage amps, but are there some sites that will have lots of vintage Fender amps. I am looking for maybe a brown Deluxe or Super. Maybe one of the smaller black faces like a Deluxe.

    Thanks for any infor you might provide.

    what part of the country are you in? I always like to check them out in person- hear what they sound like - vintage amps vary so much -they all sound different even within a specific model
    Gbase can connect you with a lot of vintage amp dealers

    Here's a local dealer in vintage amps where I live- solidbodyguitar.com. They are a little pricey compared to other dealers but at least they have some good stuff to look at. It's where I found my '66 Super Reverb before they jumped up in price again.

    Peace!

    True, but he hasn't had a brown or tweed Fender in a while. I have a taste for one of those these days.

    Kinda a bit aways from you, but check out Blues Angel Music in Pensacola, FL. (www.bluesangelmusic.com)

    These guys are on the up and up, and sell good stuff, but they are rather proud of some of it.

    The last time I was in there, they had a Brown Deluxe, with a $999 price tag on it. In fact I think they may have had it for a while.
