Try Mojo Musical supply; 1-800 927 6656 for the logo and the jewel. If
they don’t sell to callers (IE, only to dealers) I can order it for you
through my work.

Don’t know about the speakers, but I may know someone who’d buy those
Force 12’s from them. It would, in general, have had a low wattage,
paper-cone speaker by Jensen or Utah in it…

I have one. They are KILLER amps. He should look at putting new filter
capacitors in there, and new tubes too…

Check out the advertisers in Vintage Guitar magazine. The old Fender
logos are not cheap — expect to pay around $50 for them. You can get
the pilot light jewels for around a buck ($1).

The ’66 and ’72 Pro Reverbs I have both have Oxfords.

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
