    The gear in that storage locker appears to have belonged to Joey Trujillo, a session guitarist from Pheonix, AZ. From very brief research, I discovered that his genre seems to have been jazz funk, that he played on an album by Linda Herre "Now & Then" (1976), Pages "Future Street" album (1979), a single called "Movin' Out Back" by Diana Lee (1992), and the Dave Cook and Intensity album "Groovin' In The Desert" (1999), as well as touring with Sister Sledge in the late Nineties. He died on May 13, 2021 from cancer aged 69.

    Blackface started in '63 or '64. That's why the first Blackface Bassman's had circuit designation of AA864. However, there was also a transitional Blackface phase where the amps had the black face panel, but used the Brownface circuits to use up the remaining inventory of Brownface parts. These were called the "Tuxedo" amps. Mojotone can make a replacement speaker baffle and back panel for the Twin Reverb. They actually make "Fender Licensed" replacement cabinets, and the Blackface Twin Reverb is one of them. With measurements, they can probably make a new back panel for the Vox Cambridge too.

During the winter of 2013, I spent a month helping a sound systems business from Spokane with the renovation of the sound system in a 1905 church building that I was warned (by the sound engineer) had the original electrical (knob and tube) system in the attic, "It's still hot so be careful up there." The biggest improvement to the sound system was adding a ground to the electrical circuits in the space, which removed the constant 60 cycle hum that impacted the sound. I was thankful that the new TVs were not installed before addition of that ground leg. Replacing or adding a three-wire plug to the amplifiers is a good thing.

    Awesome find. That blackface Twin Reverb is killer. You could always plug it into an external speaker cab to try it out. What's odd is the drip edge front panel grille. The "drip edge" was a very limited feature that was only on the earliest silverface amps in 1968 (blackface went from sometime in mid to late '64 through the end of '67/first weeks of '68 as they transitioned to silverface and used up all their parts). So either that grille is from a silverface Twin _or_ it's an *exceedingly* rare, late 1967/VERY early '68 blackface that had a drip edge front panel grille. I tend to doubt it just because I've _never_ seen such a thing but it is of course possible. Especially with 60's Fender stuff that went through _so_ many aesthetic changes so there are always transitional oddballs that will have features from multiple era's. Like the early "blackface" Bassman amps you see sometimes that still had the brown panel era chassis, "cupcake" knobs and with the brown panel era circuit with the "presence" control. As well as the ones that had the newer blackface era chassis and circuit with no "presence" control but still had the brown panel era "cupcake" style knobs. You could also consider putting the Twin Reverb into a head cabinet. They sell them online. A lot of players would find a lot of use from a Twin Reverb in a head cabinet. Its easier to transport, can be paired with any speakers/speaker cabinet and for session guys in particular, it can be kept in a multi-head road case, as well as be kept in the control room, separate from the cabinet when overdubbing parts which is very convenient in the studio. Congratulations!

    blackface Twin Reverb was made between 1963 and 1967. The silverface came out in late 67. Just FYI never power on a tube amplifier without the proper speaker load connected. probably the main thing that destroys tube amps is people turn them on by mistake with no speaker connected. also those old tube amps without ground connection can shock you or worse. i always turn them on the first time with a stick and dont touch the chassis until i can measure the chassis to ground to see if there is high voltage floating on the ungrounded chassis.

Driving one of these with a Metal Zone (or any boost pedal) really opens them up, and adding an EQ pedal (or whatever device you have) will also give that F-30 some great tones at decent, probably won't get you evicted, volume levels.

    The vox is very similar to an ac-15 but assembled in california. Very rare amp. 1965 I believe. By 66 they were solid state.

    I owned a Cambridge Reverb back in the mid ‘60’s and it was solid state, made in USA. The demand for Vox back then was the rage because of you know who. The American versions of the British Vox amps were all solid state; I believe you may have yourself either an early version of a US-made Cambridge Reverb or possibly a British version. In any case my friend, that is a hell of a score. I’d love to see and hear that one restored, maybe in a future video.

    That Music Man amp looks just like my B115 One Twenty - 120 watt solid state bass amp with a 15" speaker. The blonde pinwale ones were a little more rare than the standard black tolex, and they usually came with an upgraded EV speaker. They were built in the early 80s. I've had mine 40 years (my dad owned a music store back then and he was a MM dealer) and it still sounds awesome.

    I was quite disappointed in my brother's MM amp (I can't remember which model he had). You couldn't drive it hard at all -- at least not with the results this MM amp has. My brother agreed. He sold/traded it in a year or so after he got it back in the early 1980s. But I would love to have this MM!

    The Fender Twin Reverb has a speaker jack on the back. Just plug a speaker cabinet into it and test it out. That amp (the Twin Reverb) paid for the locker. The VOX also may be the biggest find. The Mesa is a nice amp, but not in the same category as the other two.

    Probably not a good idea to power up vintage amps if you dont know anything about them. Not worth the risk of damaging components like transformers when they need to be serviced by a tech anyway. That vox amp is probably worth a few $$. Great video, thanks for sharing with us.

    Yeah, the whole amp bit made me absolutely cringe. You DON'T randomly fire up an amp that's been sitting idle, especially one that an absolute noob knows is worth restoring. None of those amps should've been used without a competent once-over and replacement of any 2-pronged cords. C'mon, this is ROOKIE stuff!

    The Fender is the star of the show; fully restored it will get you around $3K or so...the Mesa is a $900 amp, and the Vox will get you around $1600 when cleaned up. I would replace the the 2-prong power chords since the amps will be not 100% original after a tech has gone through them, but retain the cord for any collectors that might buy the amp. The amp market is crazy right now, prices for old stuff is as high as Ive ever seen it. Very well done with this locker, lots of WOW factor.
