Comments: Fender switched back to the blackface era cosmetics some time in 1980. Deluxe Reverbs produced between late 1980 and 1982 have a black control panel and silver sparkle grille cloth. A "Boost" pull switch was added to the Volume control around '77. A Line Out jack added to back panel around `79.
