Friends, I have seen the *real* #ToneHenge™! Here’s another shot from my visit with @terry_foster, author of “#Fender The Golden Age: 1946 - 1970”, showing a some of Terry’s very early Fender #amps. As a (non-recovering) ampoholic, I can’t tell you how exciting these amps are to me. They illustrate how much #FenderAmps evolved stylistically over a relatively short period. Top Shelf: - 1947 #Model26 (red grill) in blonde finish. - 1946 Model 26 (blue grill) in dark finish. The Model 26 was the forerunner of the famous Fender #Deluxe, still being made to this day. Second shelf: - 1948 #Champion800 in green tweed. - 1948 “#TVFront” #Princeton Third shelf: - 1949 #Champion600 - 1951 #Champion 600 Bottom shelf: 1954 “#WidePanel” #Champ 1955 “#NarrowPanel” Champ - this one is a particularly early example. You’ll notice it has the same “block” logo, small box, and 6” speaker of the Wide Panel Champ on the left. Terry says only the first few hundred made were configured like that, after which Fender switched to the more familiar larger box and 8” speaker. #fenderthegoldenage #terryfoster #leofender #midcenturymodern #midcentury #americana #guitar #guitars #amplifiers #amp #vintageguitars #vintageamps #guitargear #guitarphotography #ampphotography
