1960s Fender Vibratone
1960's Fender Vibratone. It is exceptionally clean and original, and complete with all cables and connectors. Other than a ding(depression) on the top/front edge (but not through the tolex) it is really clean.These Fender "Leslie effects" have always been tough to find...and you rarely find them in this condition with all the extras. Their unique sound was prominent on many recordings from the 1960's. They were produced from 1967 into 1972. The rotating horn provides a Doppler effect, as the spinning causes a rise and fall in pitch. It also provides a mild tremolo. The footswitch controls the two speeds. This sounds unbelievable when played through a Fender Twin or Super Reverb amp. And when plugged into a VOX AC30...provides some really unique choral sounds. Whether the instrument that is plugged into it is a guitar or an organ (Hammond B-3, Vox Continental)...the sound is really something else
