That's certainly a great concept I hadn't considered.........thanks, fuzzbox!! Cracks me up though.......they charge so much for a reissue amp and most likely the separate components are the least costly items driving their high prices....yet Fender still gets cheap on including superior parts?? I've seen where people buy these and immediately install Weber 10" speakers and other electronic items to improve the overall tone.........seems crazy cheap and discouraging to me!! Jim C.
