Fender Bassbreaker 45 Guitar Amp Head - Nearly New

Full Description

Compact Yet Powerful

The Fender Bassbreaker 45 has been designed with the perfect balance between classic British tones and American style. The Class AB power function produces a full-bodied Class AB style with rich EL34 tones. The compact size of the Bassbreaker 45 makes it perfect for a range of applications from band practices to recording sessions and more. The amp head features 45W of power, more than enough to power through the rest of the band and put your guitar at the forefront of the sound.

Vintage Tweed Design

The design of the Bassbreaker 45 is based on the original Bassman design, updated for added durability and the vintage aesthetic. The unit itself features a dark grey lacquered tweed covering plus refine pointer knobs for that classic look. The cabinet itself is constructed from Birch Ply with a semi-closed back for a fuller, more resonant response and a thicker low-end.

Customisable Wattage

One of the most unique features of this amp head is the ability to choose between different wattages for optimal performance value. The variable wattage control allows you to dial in your desire amount of breakup or headroom, dependent on the environment and how much power you need.

Inputs and Circuitry

The Bassbreaker 45 features both standard and bright inputs, plus a 'Both' input for maximum versatility. This feature ensures that each channel has it own characteristics and tone, allowing you to get the most of out the amp head. You can also bridge the inputs together for added tonality. The classic '59 Bassman preamp circuit has been utilised in this amp for that vintage, full-bodied tone. The circuit features exceptional touch sensitivity and dynamics with a 'pedal friendly' response, giving you maximum control over your amp head. The on-board three band EQ allows you tweak and fine-tune your tones, giving you added control over your sound.
