Sorry for posting in the main forum but I want as much feedback as possible.

It's got a black face but it ain't a blackface.

Looks like a Twin from the transition era that was post-Silverface yet pre-Rivera "II" series. I think Rivera designed those amps. Anyone else know?

Looks like an '80-'82 Twin-Reverb export model. IIRC, the circuit is the same as the '76-'77 revision, but with updated cosmetics.

5965 has it correct. That is the last version of the 135 UL TR. The BF cosmetics returned for '81-'82.
