Louie Louie! A great example of a 1965 Ampeg B-15NF. Featuring an original custom lucite logo/nameplate. Certainly in well above average condition. These are generally much more worn from years of use and transport. The sound of these B15 combos is on just about every Motown and Soul record recorded during the 60s and 70s and have continued to be the choice of MANY artists across all genres to this day. I own quite a few of them currently and can't get enough. These blue checkered models are some of the most sought after B15 variations due to their visual association with classic players such as James Jamerson. This is a 65 according to the serial number. An early 65 judging by the double baffle. This has the original serial tag inside the cabinet so we can confirm its an original cabinet/amp combination. It is working perfectly and was recently serviced. All the electrolytic filter capacitors have been replaced with original values to ensure its best performance but most of the passive electronic components are all original. All have been checked for drift and replaced if necessary. Grounded AC power cable installed for safety. Both transformers are original. The rectifier, preamp tubes and power tubes are most likely original. You can't beat the old Sylvania glass!! I've tested them all on my Maxi-Matcher and Maxi-Preamp and they are near perfect. The triodes of V1 and V3 are nearly perfectly balanced. The 6L6GC are also pretty closely matched and transconductance tests show ideal values surprisingly after all these years. This was likely not used much. The speaker is a CTS from 1969. A replacement but OEM and period correct. 8 ohm. See photos for cosmetics. New blue handle installed. Includes the original trolley which is super helpful for transporting it from gig to studio and beyond! No major tears in the tolex. Very much above average but does show some honest wear hear and there. This is the one you want if you want a respectfully serviced decently clean B-15N full of old glass! This will be packed like a tank to ensure its safe arrival. This will require extra care which not all sellers seem to be capable of. I have a track record of strong packaging and know how to make sure your equipment arrives in the same condition it was shipped in. This is not cheap unfortunately. Packing material costs and postage have all increased as well as insurance. This will be insured for its full value. I can ship this ANYWHERE in the world. I've shipped B-15's all over the globe. SAFELY! Local cash pickup also available. Save $$ Please ask questions. I have answers.
