1969 twin reverb for $650?

I started a thread about 6 months ago about how many twins are on Orlando Craigslist. They're a dime a dozen around here. I was seriously considering splurging, but finally decided it was a bad move. They don't sell fast here, there's a glut of them, and they are not a practical amp unless you are playing for large venues.

I say skip it and get something 40w or less.

Damn you americans and your wonderful prices on fender amps. I bought my 70' twin for 1500 and that was about 1000 less than they cost in vintage guitar stores. Great amps though. One of those bits of gear that I can't walk past without wanting to play. Worth every penny.

If you were to buy one you would probably require some tubes and a recap job. So the $650 goes up to $800-$1000 real quick.

 

They are also brutally loud. Ear ringingly, deafening loud. You would never get to open it up to it's sweet spot, around 7 on the volume knob.
