The date stamp on the tube chart and all the components date to late 1962, but the amp is really more like a 1963, with the black control panel and smooth white tolex.  The amp is in beautiful shape and has been nicely serviced.  It runs so solidly and sounds amazing.  The only change, which is somewhat inexplicable to me, is the changed grille cloth on the cab.  It must have had a hole in it - the amp is so clean that it doesn't seem like a change would typically be necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6G6-B runs 50 watts through a pair of 6L6 power tubes with a straightforward preamp topology that'll give you nice, clean headroom, touch sensitivity, and a wide, open low-midrange, but it will also roar with loads of output distortion. The cabinet has the original Oxford 12\" speakers, both dating to the 42nd week of 1962 by their manufacturer codes, and the closed-back 2x12 format focuses the bottom end in a way that distinguishes this configuration from the open-back Bassman combos. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth head and cabinet are in excellent condition. The blonde tolex is original on both pieces, and the pine cabinets are original and unrepaired. The head retains its original wheat grille cloth; the cabinet grille has been replaced. All knobs, handles, and potentiometers are original. All three transformers (power, choke, and output) are original Schumachers with codes consistent with 1962 production. All the electrolytic caps were changed out prior to the amp's arrival here, along with the screen grid resistors and the power cable. All the tubes are likely original to the amp and they all test out perfectly. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-spec-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eDate: 1962\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eWhere Is Date Noted?: Serial#, codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eWeight: Head -
