Professionally authenticated and evaluated by Blue Note Music, this 2010/2011 Mexican-built example remains fully original, retaining its factory electronics, wiring, solder joints, tube complement, and original Jensen Special Design C12N 12-inch speaker with no functional modifications. The cabinet and chassis are structurally excellent, while the original tweed covering shows honest cosmetic wear consistent with normal use.
