    Fender Bassman 400 Combo- Troubleshooting

    Hey Guys, I did a search and I could only find very old threads so I'm looking for more current info on this amp. I just picked this combo up in a local NON-TB trade for a Kuston Groove 1200 head that I never use. It seems kind of wonky and I'm trying to troubleshoot it. Overall, the amp...

    Fender Bassman 500 - volume problem?

    Received a brand new amp today. I can only get any volume from the amp if the Bass knob is turned on more then 1. If at 1, there is no volume whatsoever. Gain, volume can be any setting above 1, it won't matter. Is that by design? Seems weird but Fender tech (toll free) wasn't really sure and...

Its the "export model", but it just means it has a variable voltage input to accommodate UK electrical nonsense...

    Fender Bassman 250 - 210

    A quick search didn't give me the results I was hoping for. I bought a used Fender Bassman 250-210 about a year ago for what qualifies as an absolute bargain ($175 CAD). It was in a second hand furniture shop, took it home, replaced the tweeter fuse, and boom, I'm golden. Fast forward, after a...

    Vintage Bassman For Bass?

    Seems like whenever I see any of these vintage Fender Bassman heads, they're being used on guitar. I get they sound good that way, but do they sound good on bass?

    Bassman 100 too 'clean'

    I recently acquired a mid 70s silverface Fender Bassman 100 -- for me, it sounds too clean for my liking, and I can't get it to break up at all (note: I'm playing either a 70s hagstrom or jazz bass, and using a 410 cab). Are there any changes I can make (ie: changing tubes, phase inverter...

    Fender Bassman TV series amps...

    I'm looking to pick one up for another recording flavor. Strong opinions on 10" vs 12" vs 15"? My assumption would be that the 15" and maybe the 12" would be the ticket in the studio, but I haven't had them all around to compare. Thoughts, secrets?

    Bassman 2x15 cabs. Why are they so hated? Paired it with a Fender Studio Bass head.

    So, I recently bought a Fender Studio Bass and fell in love pretty much immediately. I found it for a great price and thought everything was perfect except it just wasn't quite loud enough. Also the only way to get good volume out of the one 15 was to turn the Overdrive all the way up. I...

    I just bought my old Redhead back from a local/national legend and am so glad to have it back. I probably wont gig it much but I just love having it. This amp represents what I thought was the finest sounding bass amp for decades. Love having my old Ginger back.
