My brother-in-law wants to sell his behemoth of an amp, but I'm unsure of the best place to sell it?

He lives abroad so he's asked us to sell it for him.

The amp is a Fender '65 Twin Reverb (unsure if it's the reissue or not - anyone know how I can find out?)

I've only see 2 of these for sale on eBay with a price of ~£500-£750, and brand new the reissues sell for about £1300+.

I would guess it's a reissue.

I've always wanted a Twin but currently broke


wiki:
In 1992 Fender introduced the '65 Reissue, with blackface cosmetics and circuitry, an output rating of 85W RMS and 8Ω Jensen C-12K speakers. It should be noted, however, that the '65 Reissue is constructed with a printed circuit board and new 1/4" phone jacks for the footswitch pedal replacing the older RCA design of the vintage originals. Fender's original intention was to issue only 300 of this model, but it was continued due to its success in the market.

His one is cream coloured, but with the 1/4" jacks and Jensen C-12K speakers.

I've only ever seen black reissued ones though?

One thing though, this thing weighs a fucking tonne!

When my neighbour goes out later I'm going to plug in my guitar to it and have a go.

Does your brother in law know if it's a reissue or not?
