I had a Bassman amp identical to that, and in outstanding shape. But I sold it to my lead guitarist since I didn't need it. My Genz amp does everything the Bassman did with more power...and lighter to move around.  He's delighted with it and I got a fair but low price since I wanted him to have it.  I'd had that amp since 1967.

I can see why you wouldn't have need of it anymore, but it's good that your lead guitarist can use it.

Simon Chardiet's rig on Rockaway Beach, post Sandy.

Mine looks like it has already been though something like Sandy several times.  I don't quite know how it got so battered.  But things were never the same anyway after the original cab that went with it was stolen and I was never able to find a replacement I liked as much.

It's regarded as a first class guitar amp now, and with 50W of tube power, it can get very loud in performance.  He was jacked to get such a classic tube amp.

I'm TOO MUCH of a pack rat - have bunches of stuff that I don't need but have had for a long time. I keep trying to move some out.

I had read somewhere that guitarists really like that amp now, but I didn't know how much.  Frankly, I've never even heard a guitar played through one.  There has been a lot of bass played through mine, though, obviously.

Wow. Nice line up! Really impressive.
That grille on the second from right needs work though ;)

Completed the Ampeg look on my Eden cabs.
A friend of mine saw the new grill cloth make over and made a set of Ampeg logo plates to complete the make over.

The casting mold and the result.



The one on the left is an original. To other is the fake.

That's cool! What did you use to make the logo plates from?

The friend that made them for me used black epoxy.

What model Eden were those again?  Any idea what enclosure type that is (ports look too big for bass reflex, but it still could be)?

They are D210XLT cabs.
Very clever design with high efficiency.
When I first saw/heard a guy using one of those I couldn't believe it was only 2 x 10. I thought he was using a sub hidden somewhere.  ;)
