Hello, folks! Thank ya'll for allowing me to come into your ranks here. I am sure that I will find this site enlightening and pleasurable.
I have a question for you dedicated Lightfoot fans. A very unique amplifier has come into my hands wiht an interesting story. I was hoping that someone here might have some insight as to the validity of the unsubstantiated claims that accompany this amp.
The amp is a 1950 Fender Pro that has been very lovingly cosmetically enhanced. The tweed is gone. There are copper 'diamonds' inlaid in various places on the amp. The 'TV' front has been 'arched' twice at the top and bottom. Beautiful red roses have been decopaged around the front of the amp.
At the bottom back panel, "Lightfoot" has been stenciled in white. The story is that this amp was once part of Lightfoot's stage equipment. Is this amp familiar to any of you? Does anyone have or recall any photos of this amp on the stage with Lightfoot? This is a wonderful sounding amp, and the story piques my interest.
Have a good one!
