some more info about the Rivera Era amps.
Due to the steep decline in amplifier sales in the late ’70s and early ’80s, Fender restructured their amplifier design team in 1982 and decided to bring aboard a well known heavy hitter Paul Rivera—of Rivera Amplification fame—this elite team moved forward quickly in creating the II Series of great again Fender Amps, which were produced from 1982 until 1986. Often called “Rivera-era amps,” this short run line included recognizable model names like the Princeton Reverb Showman, Deluxe Reverb, and Twin Reverb, as well as new models, like the Studio Lead, London Reverb, and Montreux. Each model sported its own unique features one or more modern upgrades, including master volume controls, channel switching, active tone controls,, among others.
The featured here is one of the greats with its circuitry upgrades and is housed in a more traditional cabinetry with an obvious nod to the early days of Fender black faced amplifiers,
