    Fender Bassman 500 Head Issues ?

    I bought a Fender Bassman 500 Head and 410 Neo in December - absolutely killer sound in a fairly light and compact package. The problem is that the Head has failed twice within the space of two months. It fails to switch on. I didn't get a repair report back after the first incident. I'm...

    Bassman Decisions

    I've read a whole lot of threads on the Bassman 100T and the Super Bassman, but wanted to ask a couple of specific questions. I've been eyeing these two amps off for over a year now, and will shortly have the cash to finally get one. It will be an upgrade to my Aguilar TH500, which I'll still...

I bought some Fender reissue thumb screws and they are a little too tight, I put WD-40 in the threaded holes and they are...

    Fender Bassman 400 power question

    I am currently using a Fender Bassman 400 (black face) amp,350 watts @4 ohms. I have also been looking at a Bassman 400 Pro (white face) amp also 350 watts @4 ohms and have read that the Pro can be run at 2 ohms for 500 watts. Is this the only difference between these two amps or can they both...

    80's? Bassman 135 cab speaker advice

    I've done my share of searching to figure out what to do with this 215 cab I have, and it seems almost all of the discussion is of earlier Bassman cabs. This one is labeled 'Bassman 135' on the back, the speakers are totally vertical, not diagonal, and it has a vent at the bottom. I'm guessing...

    Fender Bassman 410

    Couldn't find this with the search function. I am curious as to how the 1959 style Fender Bassman amps (open back, 4-10's, 45 watts) actually work for bass. I know they have become very popular with guitarists, but does anyone actually play one for bass?

    Ditching a Bassman for a ValveDrive + power amp?

    I love my Fender Bassman 100T. After years of playing a hybrid head with various pedals, nothing seems to beat an all tube head...in the studio. Live is a different story. I've been gigging a lot more lately and would like to condense my setup. The all-tube magic is simply lost in a loud rock...
