Fender Bronco Amp

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the guitar see, Fender Bronco

The Fender Bronco was a guitar amplifier made by Fender. It was the first silverfaced amplifier introduced in 1967. The Bronco was a student amp to go with the matching Bronco guitar. Bronco amplifiers were shipped as a part of the Bronco "student" package offered during that time, which also included the matching Bronco guitar, introduced that same year. The schematics and manuals listed the Bronco and the Vibro Champ as the same amp, except for the red letters and labels stamped on the control faceplate (Vibro Champs have blue labels and lettering like the rest of the silverface amplification). The controls were also the same. It was discontinued in 1975. [1]
