look at this super, super clean B15N-F. it even has all of the original tubes. if i didn't already have one, i'd be all over this it ( btw, i have no affiliation to seller). just thought that some of you would like to see a super clean, all original stock one with a checkerboard slip cover and dolly.
( IMO, it'll probably end up going for big bucks since it's at $1300 already). VINTAGE AMPEG B15N-F 1967 PORTAFLEX BASS TUBE AMP & CAB | eBay |

Also, here's another beauty. It's a restored '66 B-18N http://www.ebay.com/itm/140593397747...84.m1423.l2649

What a beauty | I wouldn't say that. The cab on the Heritage is a double baffle, which is considered a better cab by most who have played both, and the Heritage has both the 30w circuit from this amp and the earlier 25w circuit from the B-15NC. OTOH, I'm sure it'll go for less than $4000, and nobody who has this model seems to have any complaints about its sound, so I'm sure it'll rock.

| | | | It's amazing how many of these amps are coming out of the woodwork since all the hype surrounding the Heritage B-15 started.
I guess this was expected. It seems to be driving up the prices of the vintage units which is good for those of us who have them.
This one looks about as good as you will ever see. I'll bet that the speaker isn't even broken in!

A few months ago someone on Craigslist was selling a B15N that had been in storage for most of its life and looked as clean as that one -- for $400.
I didn't get it in time...
