    Sold ! - Fender Bassman 100T Valve Amp

    in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    [size=4][font=georgia,serif][b][size=5]Fender Bassman 100t[/size][/b]

    I've got 2 of these which is a bit OTT for my needs, so up for sale is the older and more used head. Not sure of age probably no more than 3 years old.

    Full Specs: [url="http://www.fender.com/en-GB/series/bassman-pro/bassman-100t-120v-black/"]http://www.fender.co...00t-120v-black/[/url]

    IMHO: Brilliant amps, tone to die for - these go beyond what the classic 70's silver faced line did with the extra channel that carries some major filth and cleans up to warm sparkling slap friendly - if that's your thing. 100w not loud enough ? Think again, it's majorly loud. I went down this route having spent a frustrating time with an SVT classic - not being able to get anywhere near the tone/volume I wanted, these amps hit that spot without melting faces.

    The amp has been well used and It's had some issues which resulted in a return to Fender. It's had it's bias cpu board replaced, valves changed and some soldering work on another part of the main board. It's also been serviced by a local tech. But one issue remains (the amp has switchable wattage 100/25/Silent Record) that the 25w setting 'red plates' the valves. Easy option - don't use 25w, or just turn down.

    Everything taken into account you're still left with a perfectly giggable 100w beast, and I think a fair price reflects this.

    New rrp is circa £1400 I'm asking £650 collected.

    Trades - I'd rather sell the head directly but 'at a push' I may be interested in certain left handed basses or matching Fender bass cabs (old school 2x15 or Neo 410). No other amps sorry.

    Anyone interested is welcome to 'have a go' - I'm based near Chester.[/font][/size]

    Anyone got any idea what amps he was using around late '82 - for this performance he's got 2/3 stacked flight cased Marshall heads with an open metal grille (as opposed to the normal fabric weave). Always wondered...

    I'm lazily assuming they are some variant of a Superbass ?!!!

    The 100T is plenty loud for my own uses, usually medium venues/large pubs up against guitarists 100w Marshall. I'm using 2 2x10s.

    Not had to crank it right up so far - beauty of the 100w is the ability to get the tone you want before deafening yourself.

    Valve power amp?

    in Amps and Cabs

    I'd say they're pretty rare but they'll gather dust in shops as they're more of a specialist item, so it may be worth hunting ?!!!

    Or chances are you may get a decent deal on someone selling one bundled with a preamp of some description.

    Excellent.

    I've gone back to valve bruisers recently (Fender Bassman 100T's), but gigged a guitarist friends' UK hand built Gartone Marshall Super Bass 100w Clone - tweaked it briefly, and stood back in awe throughout the gig. It was love and the volume on tap was mental. If I didn't already have 2 of the Fenders' I'd be making my friend an offer.

    My only suggestions would be:
    minimising the size of the amp casing at all, so it fits on more modern bass cabs ?
    2 channels, one clean and the other nuts ?
    Speakon connectors ?

    Owned my SL900 since they came out (or thereabouts), and yes I've had head turned by other bits of gear - I'm now on Bassman 100T's. But it's probably a keeper/back-up until it goes properly kaput (touches wood, it's had zero issues).

    Also a great choice where lots of stairs are involved.

    Firstly, love blablas' fanned fret lefty EB-alike earlier in this thread.

    This was my 1963 EB3, originally a really tatty cherry and eventually refinished in Nitro and Polaris white. Sorry for poor pic.



    Gigged it upside down for 10 years then sold it to a friend.

    Now moved onto Status King Basses which I feel are kinda inspired by the Gibson LPjr double cutaway / EB0.
