Members ptah Posted October 16, 2005 Members Share Posted October 16, 2005 Originally posted by jcourtjr I have heard the total opposite. Possibly because I made a mistake there, I havent' had a bassman addiction in a while even though I love them. I'd take an AA864 over an AB165, but not an AA165. With bf bassman heads though, I really don't think it matters much. I have seen a lot more AA865's than AA/B165's though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen a stock fender like that. Nice score! You haven't seen many old Fender's then!

I have no idea..I spent 500 dollars (canadian) on it (350us) when I get the thing, the cabinet is broken, lopsided...and the {censored}ing ground switch shocks me the first time I plug it it.. when I opened it up to install the three prong I found a whole bunch of dead insects, grass clippings, cig tar..and it looks like the chassis was rubbed down with (something??) there's streaks and blue stains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I opened up a brown face fender bassman and the heaters did not look like that, and everything else I've peeked into has been silverface. I stand corrected!
