sfceric64 Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Bought a couple SF Fenders @ auction recently 70'Bronco & 71'SuperReverb. Was hoping to pick up my 2nd Heritage guitar(H150) as well, but the bidding went crazy and I got out of the way. The Bronco is up 1st and prepped for new parts. The cap-can and a handful of resistors were out of spec so far. All original components. Some rusted pieces will be swapped out merely for aesthetics and the bottom Tolex was damaged. My first attempt using the attachment option, not sure it worked out well.
LittleLeroy Posted July 3, 2017 Posted July 3, 2017 congrats on the nice amps! i'm particularly partial to the Super Reverbs. u can bring it back to AB763 spec. wonderful amps, tho they are a bit heavy!

I love there tone but have never owned one until now, I don't gig. I will change the balance pot to bias and clip the output caps. Gonna stick with the 5u4gb for its sag, I kinda like that over the gz34 boost. This one needs some elbow grease. I basically stole it, under 750 delivered. Nice. It's hard to beat a Fender tube amp. Amen for Leo!! I have four now and only one non-Fender(SFSR,DRRI,TV Dlx, Bronco), a National 1610.
sfceric64 Posted July 12, 2017 Author Posted July 12, 2017 Well, I was going to edit the photo link after the bottom fell outta the Bucket. Lo an B hold, no edit option here and I really hate the fact the PB has used the link to attach their name here.
Polo Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 Nice score! I've always wanted one of those Bronco-Amps. Congrats.
sfceric64 Posted July 15, 2017 Author Posted July 15, 2017 Thanks Polo, its up and running again. The little beast still had a cap can from 69' in it. Idles at 14.3 watts, just over 102% dissipation. Very good sounding amplifier to my ears.
