The time has come for me to part ways with quite possibly the best amplifier I have ever owned. Hoping to ensure this goes to a good home that will use it as intended! I am the original owner and this has remained in a smoke free home since I purchased it from Joe's website.
Blues-rock guitar hero Joe Bonamassa, also a collector of the world’s greatest vintage guitars and amplifiers, has toured and recorded with late ‘50s “high-powered” Fender Twin amps for many years. After testing several prototypes of a prospective Fender signature model, he pronounced them “great-sounding and torturetested” and gave his approval. The ’59 TwinAmp JB Edition combines Joe’s favorite features in a wonderful new model that is sure to appeal to JB fans, collectors and professional guitarists everywhere.
The ’59 Twin-Amp JB Edition is designed and built to Joe Bonamassa’s specifications.
Features include:
- Classic 80-watt Fender 5F8-A circuit, HANDWIRED on eyelet board
- Four 6L6 power tubes; One 5AR4 rectifier tube; three 12AX7 preamp tubes
- Fender Vintage “Yellow” paper-foil-resin tone capacitors
- Two 12” Celestion™ JB85 signature speakers for high-powered rock tone
- Custom transformers by Mercury Magnetics™
- Solid pine cabinet
