geoff90guitar Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 [i]No, NOT a re-issue. Made about 1977.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinaljay Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 £500 for an all valve classic bass amplifier that will deliver an unmatched tone! Crazy price... this won't hang about for long. I'd have it from you, but I already have one. Good luck with the sale, but I think you'll regret selling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tremblap Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 ok it is just that the serial number does not match that date according to different websites, hence my question. If you find the exact date, I might be interested. thanks p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tremblap Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Don't bother opening it for me, thanks for the further information. I'll have a think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff90guitar Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 OK, example of pots inside : 1377714, 1377716 These date to 16th week of 1977. I have highlighted about guts in an amp, you dont know what faulty repairs/circuitry, mods etc have gone on inside. Some get transformers changed which may alter the sound or power. These are the originals, so whoever buys will have a vintage/original/nice condition bassman example and you know what they say on'Flog It' about a nice piece. Email above) for further pics inside if required. Cheers, Geoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanbean502 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Whats the power rating of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixdegrees Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Wow, these are more coveted by guitarists than by bassists. Especially the NME brigade who go nuts for them. My mate has the 70 watt version and loves it to bits. To answer DB502 - this is 100 watts of TUBE power. Not comparable to SS or hybrid watts. Good luck with the sale.

geoff90guitar Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks sixdegrees. deanbean502, normally an amp with 2 x 6L6 power valves is 50watts. This has 4. The '100' in the amps name also refers to the valve output power - 100watts. You dont need any more power, just speakers. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers [/quote] Sorry to be a bit pedantic, The 135 has 4 X 6L6s as well. But the 70s Bassman 100 are awsome, Nothing else like it only IMO of course. if I didnt already have one, I'd be interested. As has been said, hybrids with 1 pre amp valve just dont compare. I really cant understand why nobodys bitten Geofguitars hand off yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
