Comments:

Fender included a wheeled stand for the head at no extra charge.
Later versions have an XLR Line out jack on the far left back panel in addition to the 1/4" Line/Recording jack
Due to lack of space in the head the tube chart is affixed to back of the power transformer
The power transformer alone for the 300 PS weighs in at 23 lbs.
