Transcription Summary:
In this episode of This Just In, we return to Nick’s desk to showcase an impressive haul of vintage Fender amps from the 1960s, acquired from a walk-in customer, Chicago Music Exchange buys, trades, and consigns guitars and amps. The collection includes Fender Twins, Super Reverbs, a Bassman with a cab, a Princeton, a Deluxe Reverb, a Concert Amp, and a reverb tank. We also feature several unique guitars, including a rare white National Glenwood, a 1973 Martin D-18 acoustic, a bright magenta Ibanez 540P shredder guitar, a 1960 Gibson L5S, and a 1962 Gibson LG-2. In the end, they each choose their favorites—Nick picks the National guitar and a Super Reverb amp with a worn grill cloth, while Nathaniel leans toward the Gibson L5S.
