    '59 Bassman? LTD
    Series: Vintage Reissue
    Model: 2171000010

    The ?50s Fender® Bassman® was the pro bassist?s answer to amplifying a great new invention: the Fender® Precision Bass? guitar. This powerful 50-watt rig could easily compete with the common instrumentation of the day: horns, piano, four-piece drum kit with calfskin heads, and maybe even an electric guitar through a nice, new 10-watt amp! By the ?60s and ?70s, the original all-tube ?Tweed? 4x10 Bassman® was popular with rock, country and blues guitarists as a reliably great-sounding and easy-to-use guitar amp. Even some emerging British amp designers of the day copied its circuitry for use in their most celebrated designs.

    In the 1990s, Fender® released an affordable reissue of the now-collectible ?59 Bassman® amplifier to massive acclaim. Many guitarists, tired of experimenting with preamps, equalizers, and effects racks, rediscovered the simple pleasure of plugging into a Fender® tube amp. The Bassman?s wide stage coverage, touch-sensitive dynamics and full-frequency ?swirl? make it the perfect vehicle for building a great tone with almost any guitar or effect. The reissue Bassman® continues to be a staple of the Fender® guitar amp line to this day.

    The new ?59 Bassman® LTD is enhanced with:
    ? Genuine lacquered Tweed covering.
    ? Finger-joined pine cabinet for woody, resonant tone.
    ? Original spec 5AR4 rectifier tube for natural compression when playing hard.
    ? Internal bias pot makes it easier to experiment with various output tubes.
    ? Two GT-6L6 Groove Tube? output tubes.
    ? Three improved 12AX7 preamp tubes.
    ? Fitted cover.
