1978.150 Watts of sweet blues/rock delivery. Very versatile and compliments my '59 Bassman.Two channels, have replaced filter caps, preamp is solid state and reliable. Run power output w/ a matched quad of Svetlana 6L6GC's. Les Paul Custom,ES335, Strat modified w/ Humbuckers (mid and bridge)Seymour Duncan and Carvin. All driven through Zoom GFX-8 and Alesis Quadraverb. Tone versatility heaven! It has everything the '65 Twin Reverb has, (blackface Leo F. vibe) + POWER. Amp was used for nightclub gigging and is none the worse for it. Built like a bank vault.

Les Paul Custom,ES335, Strat modified w/ Humbuckers (mid and bridge)Seymour Duncan and Carvin.Blues, Rock, Funk and Jazz.This amp
was made to do everything. I'll take heat rounds for this, but those who claim one specific genre of music over another in terms of the amp's versatility are secretly referring to their own as a player. Signal chain gizmos do everything you don't NEED in today's marketing/sales driven amp market.

It's THE standard for dependability. Weighs a TON. Amp has NEVER failed and never been neglected.

If rare means valuable, I've got a diamond in the One-fifty. MusicMan
doesn't make amps anymore. Any work can be done but a good amp tech and schematic is available on web.

I've been playing since the 70's. If this amp were stolen or lost, I'd
seek to replace it. I love the vibe, tone, power (turn this up all the way and you've just defeated your musicianship, because now you're deaf). It wants for nothing. God Bless 'ol Leo Fender.
