My studio partner has a 1967 Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp that is in mint cosmetic condition. Still has the original tags on it and everything is original. This amp sat in a closet for 35 plus years after only being used a few times. Same guts as a blackface.

The amp makes strange noises and is not working. Who can we trust to take this prized possession to and know that it will receive the love and attention to detail that this amp deserves? I am paranoid about leaving this in the hands of a second rate tech. Any suggestions? Preferably in the Washington-DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia or Pittsburgh area so that we can personally deliver and pickup. I hate the thought of shipping this amp.

Thanks,
Dave
