Grissle Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Looks like 10, 12, 15 & 2x10 all valve bass amps, drool.... [url="http://www.fender.com/fba/"]http://www.fender.com/fba/[/url] Edited July 21, 2009 by Grissle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skankdelvar Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 (edited) Love the side-stacked 6x10 and 2x15 cabs on the home page. Just don't let BFM see them Edited July 23, 2009 by skankdelvar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umcoo Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Interesting...in the short video on the site it says '350 watts'...surely not all valve? They look sexy though, a 2x10 combo and a 15 cab underneath would make a great retro rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Don't get too excited... I think they're hybrid. It's early days but they're screaming 'all style, no substance!' at me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 [quote name='thodrik' post='547189' date='Jul 22 2009, 12:05 AM']I admire them a bit for going totally against the portability craze thats currently going on. They really do look like heavy duty cabs designed for the road rather than 'getting as much gear in the back of a taxi/mate's car' type of gigs. I'm probably more impressed by the cabs than the amps to be honest. This is all on purely cosmetics just now though.[/quote] I think you're looking at the wrong cabs - the new Bassman TV stuff looks like this: The cabs you can see in the background are Fender's existing range.

BarnacleBob Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 10" spkr, 150W, 12AX7 input Valves, 2 inputs - I think i'll have one of these. BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I think the new ones are all tube. Never really tried Fender for bass amps. Their guitar amps have some of the BEST cleans ever...great for blues and indie....but never ventured into their bass gear, (despite the fact my favourite Fender 'guitar' amp is actually the bassman, originally a bass amp!)

They will probably be okay, but I'm just a bit sick of the 'new but looks really vintage' vibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its 5w All Valve. Nice little practice amp. Ped and I have mucked about by playing bass through it and its not too bad. Might have to get the matching bass version now though!
