Unreferenced date October 2009 The Fender Tremolux was a guitar amplifier made by Fender Musical Instruments Corporation Fender . It was introduced in the summer of 1955 with a rated power output of 15 watts, cathode bias , two 6V6 output tubes, and a 5V4 tube rectifier. The Tremolux was the first Fender amp with a built in effect, tremolo . In 1957, the rated power output of the Tremolux was increased to 18 watts when it changed to a fixed bias design and a 5U4 rectifier. In 1961 the Tremolux was changed from a 1x12 Tweed Fender tweed fabric covered combo amp to a piggyback amp with oxblood grillcloth, covered with white tolex . Its rated power output was increased to 30 watts, its output tubes were a pair of 6BQ5 EL84 the only Fender amp of that time feature them , but was soon changed to 35 watts and a pair of 6L6GC with a GZ34 rectifier circuits 6G9 A and 6G9 B. There were 10 , 12 and 2 10 speaker cabinet configurations. In 1963 the grillcloth changed to gold colored. In 1964, the White Fender white tolex was replaced with Blackface Fender black tolex and the circuit was changed to AB763, which used an optoisolator to couple the tremolo effect, replacing the earlier direct bias modulation circuits. The Tremolux was discontinued in the summer of 1966. The early or first Tolex made 6G9 Tremolux Amps were the 6BQ5 EL84 amps starting at Serial Number 100. There were about 179 total 6G9 Tremolux Amps ever built. There was one change in the circuit during the 6G9 EL84 amp lifespan. The latest serial number known is 279, this would make 179 EL84 amps known. If anyone has seen a serial number later than the 279 please post it here. This is one of the most rare amps Fender ever made. The EL84 Tremolux did not have professional printed tube charts, but instead they have a typewriter written tube chart that was copied in a blue ink mimeograph machine.

The Fender Vibrasonic was an amplifier made by Fender Musical Instruments Corporation Fender . It was introduced in 1959 and was discontinued in 1964. At the time of its introduction, the Vibrasonic Amp was the first amplifier design to displace the Fender Twin as the company s new top of the line or flagship model. This elevated status was short lived however, as the 6G8, high powered blonde Twin Amp reappeared in mid 1960.The Vibrasonic was debuted as one of the six Professional Series of Fender Amplifiers. These are the first six models to make the transition to the new tolex covered, forward facing control plate design that would gradually replace the tweed covered cabinet design so prevalent during the 1950s. Outside of a few small variations like the transformers, speaker array and negative feedback resistor, these 6 amplifiers shared nearly identical circuits. The Vibrasonic, like the 4x10 Concert Amp, featured a larger interleaved output transformer designed to minimize distortion in the output stage. Unlike the Concert Amp however, the Vibrasonic Amp was the first production Fender amplifier to use a speaker made by the James B. Lansing company. JBL speakers would become considered as superior to the Jensen speakers in terms of their power handling capacity. Only the earliest examples of this amp were manufactured with metal control knobs, as pictured in the 1960 Fender Musical Instruments catalog. In recent scholarship, the Vibrasonic has been closely associated with the mythological brown tolex, small box Twin Amp. ref Teagle, J. and Sprung, J.
