1959 Fender Tweed Bassman 5F6-A Original vintage chassis pre cbs Fender tube amp
Tuesday, June 4th, 2024Original early 1959 Fender Bassman 5f6-a complete working chassis (minus tubes). If you’re here, you probably know these Original 5f6 amps sound amazing, but if you haven’t experienced an Original late 50′s Bassman amp in person you’ll certainly be in for a treat. This amp chassis is largely original, most importantly the coveted Original Output transformer is in place. This is a great start to a project, or if you have an original cabinet with a heavily modded chassis this is a great opportunity. The chassis plating has light pitting, the control panel overall is very clean, one small ding near the bass control that is not very noticeable when installed in the amp. Silk screen overall is very good, however there are some areas showing wear and faint in spots. Overall very good vintage original condition. Has a replaced power transformer (Classic tone), 3 prong power cord, has bias trim pot, replaced selenium rectifier with diode, some caps replaced upon previous service. Please let me know if you require any additional pictures or have any questions.
