I have my B15 since 1968, but did replace OEM speaker about ten years later with an Altec Lansing 421A

Doubt it !!

Just cannot get used to that 5th string so my Fender V is gathering “Dust”

My 1965 EB3 (purchased new in 1965) is my oldest and still the best Bass I have never owned

My first bass was a Danelectro, back in 1962, then in 1963 I bought a used 1961 J Bass, sold that in 1965 and bought a 65 Gibson EB3...still have it and use it weekly but wished I had the money at the time to have kept BOTH the Danelectro and the Fender but times were different then...

Hi Jimmy, I previously owned 2, B18s and used them "stacked" when I needed high volume in the late 60ties, also had a '65 B15 purchased in 1968 too which I still have. I did replace the original speaker with a Altec-Lansing 421 A speaker, in 1970. I currently use a '65 Gibson 1965 Les Paul...

Interesting comments, never really looked at it that way in my Bass Playing career that started at age 15 in 1962, but I enjoyed your thoughts just the same! Rich

I Have been playing Bass since 1962, first a new Danelectro, then a used 1961 J Bass, finally buying a new 1965 EB3, which I still have and use regularly (with either a 12" Kustom, a Fender Rumble 150 & 15 and still my favorite is a 1965 Tube B15). I also have a American Vintage 1964 J-Bass...

KN, As a Bass Player since 1962, & having owned 2 B18s(1966) and 1 B15(1965 and still have & use with my 1965 Gibson EB-3), I would recommend Ampeg to ALL Bass Players, regardless of Model or Size, just make sure you play ALL you Basses you own thru both Amps and trust your ears! Regards...
