Reference and Owner’s Manual for the SFX Keyboard 200 P/N 053448 REV C
A Message from the Chairman Since 1946, Fender realized the importance of your amplifier. You see, your amplifier is more than just a combination of dials, wires and speakers. It is a finely tuned musical instrument. And like any fine musical instrument, it should be treated with special care and attention to detail. At Fender, we know what building guitar amplifiers is all about.
