Up for sale is a beautifully built TAD Bassman 59 style handwired 4x10 tube combo, delivering the legendary late-1950s tweed tone.

The amplifier was professionally built from a Tube Amp Doctor kit and has been carefully maintained ever since. It is approximately 15–20 years old and in excellent working condition.

This amp captures everything players love about the classic tweed Bassman sound:

huge, three-dimensional cleans, warm and woody midrange, and a smooth, natural breakup when pushed.

It is loaded with Naylor ceramic speakers, which provide a tight low end, clear articulation and plenty of punch while maintaining the vintage character.

A master volume control allows the amp to be used at more manageable levels while still retaining its dynamic tube response.

  • Big open tweed cleans
  • Rich harmonic overtones
  • Smooth, musical breakup
  • Extremely responsive to playing dynamics
  • Excellent platform for pedals

Condition
