If there, the QC stamp inside the chassis near the power transformer will tell when it was assembled. EIA codes on the transformers will help date it _________________ '81 Sho-bud LDG, 2 EMCI's |

I've been putting parts together to build one for my beautiful bride. That looks like her first "real" amp, if you're selling it as-is, I'll go $100. |

Jack, I guess it's worth whatever you can sell it for. To me it's a chassis and face plate with unknown transformers, and 50 year old components.
Good luck to you! |

It was, admittedly by both parties, a good deal, but I recently bought a working, no issues silverface Bassman head for $400. In Southern California. Just sayin'. _________________ "Gopher, Everett?" |

Posted 2 Dec 2019 7:03 pm thanks for the interest
|
|
but the bottom line is we could find a lot of deals so to speak, but this is priced at what i think is a fair deal, so like i said before the first one that says i will buy it for 500.00 gets it....thanks jack |

Keep it, get it fixed up, and have the Bass Channel converted to a Normal Channel. The Bass Channel is pretty much useless the way it sounds, and the conversion just involves changing a couple of capacitor values, and you can wire the Deep switch as a bright switch. You then have a great Fender head with two usable channels. I use mine for doubling on steel and guitar.
As far as a cabinet goes, Rick Johnson has built a lot of cabinets for people here on the forum and does great work. He can probably build whatever you want. You have the option of getting a head cabinet for it, or putting it in a combo cab. If you don't mind the weight of a combo you could go with a single 15, a single 12, or even 2x10s,
I wanted to list Rick first as he is a Forum member, but another source is JD Newell. A lot of people like his work, and his website shows examples of a couple different combo cabs for this chassis, as well as a standard head cab. |
