Description

This 1960 Bassman has a wonderful hybrid of styles present. While it came as a tweed amp, it has since been recovered with black tolex, which looks auspiciously close to original blackface covering - one might speculate this was done at the factory even, as the work itself is flawless. Internally it is practically all original, with only a changed power cord, electrolytic caps, and the screen grid resistors. The preamp section is all original as well, with only a single changed coupling cap on the presence control. The 2 Celestion 10's add a nice touch as well, all contributing to a monstrous sounding player grade amp!

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
