Fender Vintage Reissue 59 Bassman Tube Guitar Amplifier
The Fender® Bassman amplifier of the 1950’s evolved as the pro bassist’s answer to amplifying a great new invention: the Fender Precision Bass®. This powerful 50-watt rig could easily compete along with the common instrumentation of the day: horns, piano, four-piece drum kit with calfskin heads, and maybe even an electric guitarist with a nice, new 10-watt amp! By the ‘60s and ‘70s, the original all-tube Tweed 4 x 10 Bassman gained popularity with rock, country, and blues guitarists as a great-sounding, reliable, easy to use guitar amp. Even some emerging British amp designers of the day copied its circuitry for use in their most celebrated designs.
In the 1990’s, Fender released an affordable reissue of the now-collectible ’59 Bassman amplifier to massive acclaim. Many guitarists tired of experimenting with preamps, equalizers, and effects racks rediscovered the simple pleasure of plugging into a Fender tube amp and rocking. The Bassman amp’ s wide stage coverage, touch-sensitive dynamics, and full-frequency swirl make it the perfect vehicle for building a great tone with almost any guitar or effect pedal hooked into it. The Reissue Bassman continues to be a staple of the Fender guitar amp line to this day.

Genuine lacquered Tweed covering
Solid finger-joined pine cabinet for woody, resonant tone
