Up for sale, a 1978 Traynor YBA-1 Bass Master tube amplifier head in excellent condition and in perfect working order. Fully serviced and very original, this head drives a matched pair of EL34 power tubes, generating an ample 45 watts. Made in Canada and fully hand-wired with giant Hammond transformers, this amp has significant clean headroom and passes a ton of low end. Known as the poor mans Marshall, the circuit can be easily modified to that of a classic 4-input design, yet in its stock configuration the YBA-1 can already harness that rich Tweed-meets-U. Blend which is this Traynor’s sonic signature. With Volume controls for each channel as well as a global three-band EQ and presence control, this amp can be used to power a variety of different instruments (such as a bevy of vintage keyboards) or simply a single guitar or bass, providing a bold, clean power amp that works well with effects pedals. This Traynor has abundant low end response, and the large transformers keep the sound tight and full. This YBA-1 has a very original circuit, with the pair of original Hammond transformers and a preamp that has both a bevy of mustard caps in the signal path as well as all metal film resistors for an optimal noise floor. The power supply has been completely recapped to ensure optimal performance. The amp is currently loaded with a trio of Tung Sol 12AX7 preamp tubes as well as a matched pair of Mesa-branded EL34 power tubes. The faceplate retains all of its original knobs, and virtually all of the original silkscreen text is present too. Smooth black tolex and black grill cloth is framed by aluminum banded bumpers on either side of the head, and the original raised logo is present too. This Traynor lives up to the company’s reputation of delivering sturdy workhorse amps that perform reliably on stage and in studio situations. This vintage hand-wired Traynor YBA-1 Bass Master is a true sleeper that has been well played, but remains in top-notch performance condition.
