Johnny Marr’s 1965 Fender Deluxe Reverb

According to a Facebook post by Marr on April 17, 2012, he has owned a 1965 Fender Deluxe Reverb since 1986. Marr mentioned that the amp broke down, and it seemed beyond repair.

My Amp, my beloved ’65 Fender Deluxe Reverb just konked out and started smoking. No no, right in the middle of a solo-break. Me and this amp been together since 1986. I mean…It’s a tough cookie and it’s gotta get through but this…I am really sharing right now.. Jeez…Oh Man.

Unfortunately, Marr never specified how extensively he used the amp or whether it featured on any studio recordings—though it’s reasonable to assume it might have been. However, he was seen using it live with The Smiths around 1987.
