1966 Ampeg B15N in fair condition, Serial:020401. The speaker is a Jensen but dated to 1969 so clearly not original to the amp. The cab is single baffled and comes with the original dolly. The pre-amp tubes were made in the USA. 2 by Sylvania and 1 by RCA. The power tubes are a new matched pair of JJ 6L6. There is no rectifier tube. (the circuit has been rewired for solid-state rectification) The amp is 30W and sounds fantastic. If you want that cool Motown Bass sound then this is the amp for you.
The tolex has quite a few scuffs and small tears. The grille cloth has some wear but nothing major. The latches work as they should with no issues. The metalwork shows a small amount of rust. Most importantly of all the sound is fantastic. This amp won't disappoint in terms of sound or looks.
Recently serviced and given a clean bill of health. It comes with 30 days warranty and a new step-down transformer. We've changed the power cord from a two-pin to a three pin and fitted an earth tag to make it safe. The power transformer has been changed. The rest of the circuit appears to be original.
