Description

The AB763 Deluxe Amp—often referred to as the “non-reverb”—is much rarer than its Blackface counterpart, yet it sacrifices nothing in performance. While it has slightly less gain, with two stages instead of three, its breakup remains just as warm and musical. This example has held up well over the years and is in excellent condition, with only minor signs of wear.

It remains largely original, with only typical maintenance updates such as a replaced power cord, screen grid resistors, and electrolytic caps. Some parts in the tremolo circuit were changed to maintain proper functionality, but the preamp is otherwise untouched, including all of the original “blue molded” Ajax coupling capacitors. Interestingly, the 125A1A output transformer dates to 1960 and appears to be original to the amp. While uncommon, the use of older OEM parts is not unheard of. The original speaker has been replaced with an Eminence Legend 1258.
