If you buy a modern fender ali/plastic footswtich and go to maplin and get a stereo jack to phono lead connector (£5 or so) it'll do the job neatly

If you mean the reverb "jacks" RCA's are normal for SF Fenders. Some nice old valves there. If the Mullard GZ34 is in good shape its worth about £75. The CV8463 is really unusual. It's a special gold "lead" version of the CV4024 which is the military version of the ECC81 or 12AT7 i.e. the Phase inverter ... B-)
Lovely old amp, really envious!

Whoa that needs a NSFW warning.
Hope you get to use it in anger at some point soon
I'm very jealous
Worth considering.

:P
very envious mate, in fact, your ramblings about this amp re-kindled my interest in something old/Fender
It still needs doing though, so you have no option but to try to undo the nuts and hope the rust is not stronger than the particle board...
Put a drop of WD40 or penetrating oil on each one and leave it to soak in a bit before you try to turn the nuts. Don't overdo it and wet the baffle though.

Cranked it up to about 3 in my garage - wow. SO MUCH BASS!! And what a smell! The smell of slowly warming cobwebs!
Just bunged a "tubescreamer" in front of it and it's amazing
Won't really be able to give a full appraisal until tomorrow's gigs. Where, because my supersonic is still being fixed, the SR will be my only amp
Eeeeeek!
