Hey Bob! Thanks! I had not seen those. Will check them out. Been still playing that amp all this time, and loving it! Put some different tubes in, to replace a bad pre-amp tube that had gone...

So I received and put in some new tubes. First, I found some good used vintage 5881’s to have as back ups to the 6L6WGB tubes that came with the amp. But I am enjoying them in it and think I am...

The tubes are listed as 5881 5881 7025 7025 12AX7 12AX7 7025 7025 in a little chart inside the cabinet.


This is an explanation from a guy that helped me understand what was going on.

Ha Ha! I did! (Hi, Robert, by the way! Hope you are well! We are ok down here.).

I have kept it, and am finally fixing up a couple things. I had a pre-amp tube go bad and have found a...

Here is the amp I have for sale. Here: http://www.thefret.net/showthread.php/22366-1961-Fender-Concert-Amplifier-Brownface

This is the thread from when I first got it.

Woo Hooo!! Someone better hop on that buy, that's a steal!! :crazyguy :pancake

Well, given I have never truly played an original Bassman, what I say must be taken with a grain of salt. But that said, it is similar, but in a way, in between a Bassman and a Blackface. They don't...

By way of an update, after leaving the amp at work and just playing it there for a bit, I have had the amp home over the weekend. The Peavey is now at work. I really enjoy this Concert and think I...

Yeah, it is.

Thanks guys! Pretty cool so far! Jipes, thanks for linking your vids to me when I mailed you on Youtube. I tried to reply, but youtube mail wasn't working. I liked those vids!...

Hi guys, just as a follow up, here at the link below are a bunch of pictures just for fun. This thing is cool!

You bet, that is what I plugged in. Nice!

I really like the sounds. And it does sound really good opened up a bit. I thought it sounded good at low volume, and it does, but after playing it...

Good to know. I wondered what the tube designation meant. Your description of moving toward BF sound is accurate from what I have read. As I understand it, the brown amphs of the early 60s are in...

It has a pair of Tung Sol 6L6WGB tubes in it now, that were reportedly old stock, (not in a box) that were in good shape. The pre-amp tubes are tung sol as well, but I need to pull the cover off of...

Hi Tung, I was hoping you would chime in. It is the 6G12-A version with the 6 pre-amp tubes, which is the author of the PG article's favorite (Jeff Bober). Sounds nice to me so far at the very low...

Thanks guys. Nah, he kept the strat for now. It is a red American that he "hand distressed".

Well, it is now at my office. Had a brief chance to mess around with it. Has a very nice sound. It is brown tolex, with a darker brown/burgandy speaker cloth. It's speakers are Eminence from 1967...

Evening bump for the late shift. Curious if anyone has played or heard one, or has any thoughts about this "transitional" series of amphs between the tweeds and the black faces.

I did find this article, that also makes them sound like nice amphs. Anyone have any thoughts?

I have a line on a 1961 Fender Brown Concert, to take in part payment of a bill I am owed, maybe along with an American strat. Setting the strat aside, what can any of you tell me with regard to...
