    Mine has leather handle, black control plate, and silver sparkle covering, sparkle cloth. Should be 1963.

      I have 5 Fender tank reverb units. 2 vintage 3 reissue. I’m trying to find chrome faceplates for them. Just like the amps. I wanna put chicken knobs on them too.
      Gotta have chicken knobs! Do you have them or know where I can get them?

      Thank You
