Description
A vintage 1967 Ampeg B-15N Portaflex fliptop amp in player-grade condition. Since its introduction in 1960, the B-15 has been used on countless classic recordings, and it remains the standard for studio bass amps. Cosmetically, this example is in player-grade condition. The tolex has considerable wear, and the cabinet logo is missing. However, the amp has just been serviced, with a re-capped power supply and a grounded AC cord. It is now firing on all cylinders and is ready for some serious studio work.
