1960 Fender 5F6 Tweed Bassman

Here we have a 1960 Fender 5F6 Bassman amp with a number of modifications, including some interesting vintage parts substitutions. The most important thing is how does it sound? In a word: fantastic!

Powered by two 6L6s delivering about 30 watts. It has the original chassis, choke, and power transformer. Most of the pots are also original. The amp has been recapped. Non-original cabinet, but with original Fender Bassman badge. Replaced output transformer from 1955 and four Jensen speakers also dating from 1955.

The price of this Bassman reflects the modifications which makes it a great deal. You get top dollar tone at less than half the price of an all-original model!
