Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: New from NAMM: Fender '64 Vibroverb Custom

Phil Tiki (surfbass7) - 16 Jan 2003 13:26:55

I just ordered a new Classic 51 P-Bass and while I was talking to my
buddy, I asked about the Vibroverb.
Ready?
$2999.00 list. Ouch. Look for a street price of about $2000. Ouch.
I don't know...1-15" speaker, tube reverb, tube tremolo...sounds like a
surf monster to me...
