"Bogen" amps were "big" when I was just starting out....
Usually they were for PA. But repurposed for guitar/bass.

Mine sounded great 100w I had it running two 15" in a Kustom speaker cabinet like this

it had the cops knocking on my bedroom window during late night practice many times when I was young I back in the early 70's I traded it in 1975 for two Ampeg half stack 4*10's that I later returned for my Ampeg 1 8*10 cabinet

this is the back of it, you needed to be a rocket scientist to hook it up no plug and play on this baby the area that says mic you had to buy adapters that screwed on to that which accepted the 1/4 instrument cable. The screws with the ground and different ohms and volts listed is where you connected the speaker cable to the amp which had a 1/4 plug on the other end as in my first picture. fun times

Crate B-60.
Before this I had some tiny terrible no name thing that produced blue smoke after a couple weeks.

I got this guy still running P.A. in my building's meeting room, it was purchased new. It does voice only.
I had another one for the downstairs ballroom that was in a storage closet for occasional use, and someone threw it away during a clean up day last year.

This is as far as I could turn it.
