Description
A vintage 1968 drip edge Fender Bassman amp. An early transitional Silverface, these amps are a great bargain for those players looking for a boutique-quality, handwired amp without the boutique or Blackface price. Aside from the replacement back panel, the amp is quite clean and all original where it counts. This Bassman has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds fantastic.
