Our second tweed Bassman in a few months.  They never disappoint.  New video demo added - see the pics!

This example has been re-tweeded and re-grilled, and the work was done very nicely. 

The transformers are original, as are the speakers.  The original tube chart remains inside the cab.  The filter caps have been updated, along with several throughout the circuit.  Pots are original.  The handle is a repro and the power cable is a replacement - a grounded "three prong".

The amp is a killer.  There is just nothing like the sound of an original Tweed Bassman.  

Shipping cost will be high on this amp.  The chassis needs to be shipped separately from the cabinet.  Assembly will be required on delivery.  This protects the chassis from damage if the package is roughly handled.  The transformers are heavy and can distort the chassis in shipping.
