a guy was claiming he had an original '65 ("not reissue") Fender Twin, for sale for $800, but in ithe pictures was obviously an early 80's master volume with the black grill cloth. The ironic thing was, in the ad, the person claimed that he "has done his research & know what these amps are worth".

I hope the ad got flagged for removal for the gross misrepresentation of that amp, & not because some ignorant sucker bought it under the assumtion that it was a real '65.

I posted a "rebuttal" ad to hopeful inform potential buyers...

I just realized i had this ad still open in one of my browser tabs, so i saved the photos & uploaded them to photobucket. Here's exactly what it said (phone number was deleted to protect the ignorant):

"I HAVE A VINTAGE 1965 FENDER TWIN REVERB WITH 11 TUBES THAT DOES NOT GET ANY USE. I DONT HAVE THE TIME TO PLAY IT ANYMORE. THIS IS NOT A REISSUE AMP, IT IS 100% ORIGINAL. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND KNOW WHAT THE SELL FOR. SERIOUS INQUIRES ONLY PLEASE!
