Title: 1967 Super Reverb Blackface Tranny change?
Post by: Oddvar on December 23, 2016, 06:41:28 am

Hi.  Is there anyone here that can advise me on where to get a vintage tranny that use 240v for my Fender 1967 Super Reverb?  Or, secondary, what transformer to use if I can't get an original one?  (the one that's inside now doesn't say maker, but has 022798 606727 printed, and Csa Tested painted, and is 120v.)

I don't think Fender was selling an export SR back then. The suggested transformer may be your best hope.
