Extremely well made, but heavy as a tank.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
Stange only one input, but I guess if you play pro you do not want anyone in your mix at the amp. I have a 65 reissue super reverb and thought it could make some crazy sounds and controls. Matched it with my MM5 and loving it with an ole '85 two 15" bass encloser. This head makes me order a new 610 encloser. Love the Marcus Miller sound!
Sound
How is the tone?
Love the tone and sound of tubes, got this amp and a 65 Super reverb tube amp with a 65 reissue Jassmaster. Get in a time machine and when back 50 years. You can not beat tubes ever and I am a EE.
General
Your general opinion of this product.
Fender, what else can I say other then Ole as I am it took me three times to lift the head on my enclosure, well worth the effort. If it leaves my home, I need some young bucks to move it, if not the Bassman 60 rolls with me.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
NA, My MM5 Jass bass would a better answer to this question. But I think any bass would sound better on this amp. I put and ole 63 P-Bass and a 85 J-bass on this amp. It canged my world. I was trained on Sax, my Seler Paris series model III is getting little play, need to fix
