Fender 5F8-A Twin 1959 - tweed

From the listing

Seller's description

Old pro retweed. Original grill cloth, transformers . Astrons , Tung Sol 5881's, RCA 5Y tube. Bluebell P12n Jensens are reissue, however, 20 years ago I sent these , and all my original Jensens, to Ron Neil Speakers in CA, the Jensen tech who built the original P12n's in the 50's . I had him take out and replace all of my blue Jensen's 1cones and replace with the original cones, kits, and glue he took with him from the Jensen factory . He did my mint 5F8-A examples cones, and when sold for a record price, the major collector said he considered the Neil work a "plus" point for mint original condition. That said, Leo originally specified JBL's for these amps, but they didn't arrive until 1960. The Jensens ae 25 watt speakers and the 80 watt Twin will blow them , hence the rarity. These re issues are internally original Jensen 1950's blue P12n kits, couple hours testing use only. . All that said, I use 1 JBL and 1 EVL in these amps, Keith uses 80 watt Celestions , Danny Gatlin used EV SRO . I will include a nice EVL and JBL with the Jensens. Will post photo, and transformer photos I forgot, all original.No rust. Some wear on the lettering . Clean chassis. This was tuned up by a well known boutique amp builder for himself, then he sold it to buy a guitar. It is the best sounding of the three I owned . Brown padded cover included, will post photo of that and more.
