I hate to sell my Ampeg B15s

I hate to do it, but things are what they are and I need to get rid of some stuff, first on the block is my Ampeg B15s. I also have a B15n as well, I don't need two.

As far as I can tell it's all original down to the tubes, it has the original caster cart, also the tilt back bar is there as well. There are no major tears or rips to the tolex, the grill is in great shape as well.
I plugged my passive jazz bass into it and I have to admit it distorts pretty quickly, I don't know if that is how it's supposed to sound or if it needs to be serviced, I seriously doubt it has ever had any work done to it.

I want to get $1100.00 for it, I am located in Los Angeles. I can't ship this thing, so you must come here to pick it up.

BUMP for my man... I got to record with one of these a while back and wow what a sound!

See you tomorrow!

Beautiful cosmetic condition.

Sounds like something needs attention (maybe just tubes) if it's distorting really quickly...

Bump for a great amp.
I played a B15s for years.
Tone to the bone.

my old amp from the late 70's! Wow!

Original speaker or an Altec-Lansing? Just curious.

And the distortion is probably just the powertubes.

Looks so cool...
