1965 Fender Reverb Unit 6G15
Launched in July of 1961, the stand-alone Fender Reverb was Leo Fender's first foray into the world of spring reverb. Adapted from a design that Hammond employed to add reverb to their organs, Fender's Reverb unit was intended for use with any amplifier or PA system. The design of the Fender Reverb was integral in the development of their reverb-equipped combo amplifiers that debuted in 1963, such as the Twin Reverb and Deluxe Reverb.
This clean and largely original Fender 6G15 Reverb unit was built in early 1965. Pots and capacitors are date-coded the first week of 1965, the transformer is dated to the 43rd week of 1964, and the tube chart is stamped "OC" denoting a March of 1965 build. This Reverb unit is in good working order and has been recently serviced. The original two prong power cable has been updated with a grounded modern replacement.
With Dwell, Mix and Tone controls, the stand-alone Fender Reverb units are markedly different than what you’d find in a Reverb-equipped amp. With much more control of the reverb’s tone settings, the Reverb Unit lends its hand in making some seriously glorious sounds.
