#whiteamp

The view at @folkwaymusic on the weekend, with several #vintageguitars and #amps to covet, epecially that 1965 #DeluxeReverb (behind the little #Gibson #amp) and the #Fender #WhiteAmp featured in yesterday's post. Although...I wouldn't kick the 1966 #Gretsch Double Anniversary (right) or the 1964 Guild T100 (second from left) off the #guitar rack for eating crackers! 😄 . . #guildguitars #kayguitars #gibsonamp #fenderprinceton #fenderdeluxereverb #premieramp #premierreverb #vintagegibson #vintagegretsch #guitars #amplifiers #vintageguitars #vintageamps #fenderamp #vintagefender #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #guitarsdaily #fendersofinstagram #guitarphotography #ampphotography (at Folkway Music) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8GqLm1hKLp/?igshid=1crzb8u4xmgui

"It's a nice day for a White Wednesday. It's a nice day to...start agaaaaaaaaain! Woo!!" - William Broad, 1982. . 1962 #Fender "White" #amp spotted at @folkwaymusic in Waterloo, Canada. . The #WhiteAmp was the only amp made by Fender that did not carry the Fender name. It was originally sold with a matching student lapsteel and the pair were named after Leo's right-hand man Forrest White. The circuit is based on the #tweed #5F2 #Princeton. If I wasn't broke from paying my recent "#Harvard tuition" 😄 I already would have bought this delightful rarity! . . #fenderprinceton #fender5f2 #tweedamp #tweedtuesday #guitar #guitars #amp #amps #amplifiers #vintageguitars #vintageamps #fenderamp #vintagefender #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #guitarsdaily #fendersofinstagram #guitarphotography #ampphotography (at Folkway Music) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9T6iWFhS4t/?igshid=1n1knml4a4p4l

Here's a fun amp you don't see everyday: a 1962 "White" spotted at @folkwaymusic. . This is a really interesting piece of #Fender history right here. Yes, I said Fender! "White" was to Fender as Kalmazoo or Kel Kroyden was to to #Gibson - a budget brand produced alongside the regular product lines, and based on their designs but with cosmetic changes. Fender marketed a student amp and #lapsteel set under the White brand name, which was named for Forrest White who worked closely with #LeoFender, from the mid 50s to 1962. . The amp itself is basically a 5F2 tweed #FenderPrinceton but in a different cabinet with snazzy grey tolex, snazzy blue grill cloth, and a snazzy blue leather handle. And let's not forget the snazzy "higher fidelity" nameplate (see photo 4)! This one is all original other than a changed speaker (original speaker is included but needs a recone) . The only other one of these I have ever seen is in the collection of Fender historian @terry_foster, and if I hadn't just bought Terry's Harvard this one would have been very tempting! .

Here’s an exciting one: 1950s “White” #amp spotted at @shyboytexrepairs #Toronto. So what the heck is it? Simply put: it’s a #Fender!But it doesn’t say “Fender” anywhere on it. White was a line of #lapsteel #guitars and matching amp sets made by Fender in the mid to late 50s. Kind of like Gibson’s “Kalamazoo” brand. They were named for Forrest White, a long-time Fender employee. These #amps are incredibly rare...the only other one I have ever seen in real life is in @terry_foster’s collection. Honestly, if this had been available I would have bought it instead of my new #LesPaul Junior in a heartbeat...that’s how bad I want one of these! But alas, it was already sold. ☹️ #guitar #guitars #amps #amplifiers #whiteamp #vintageguitars #vintageamps #fenderamp #tone #guitargear #guitarsdaily #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #guitarsdaily #fendersofinstagram #guitarphotography #ampphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/BqaXMoin5Bf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xyd2twv2f2gn
