    I recently bought a 1968 Super Reverb, and it has a blackface front panel (I haven’t checked the circuit yet.)  Is this an anomaly, or did some 1968 Fender amps actually get blackface circuitry and panels?

      No. Stamped onto the tube chart are two letters. The first denotes the year, the second the month of manufacture. My ’66 Super has “PJ” stamped on its chart, indicating October 1966. My ’65 Deluxe has “OJ”. “N” would mean 1964, etc.
