I'm still kicking myself (almost 30 years later) for not buying a near mint Brown tolex Fender Concert Amp. It was just $200.

Quite a georgous collection you have there! Thanks for sharing!!!

I had a friend who had one of those stand up Gibsons, I think it was a Bass 50 though. MOM drove me to GC in Crystal, MN in 1968 and I was determined to come home with a Gibson. We came home with a Kalamazoo Bass 30 for like $10 a week and I played that for over a year and finally sold it. Ah....

Not a very big collection, but it'll do some damage:

My small rig, a 64 B-15N with a Vintage Blue repro double baffle cab:

My medium rig, which uses the smaller rig. Fliptops repro cab on bottom, but I didn't have the VB cab at the time so this is the original cab restored by Jess Oliver. I leave the original cab at home these days:

My big rig, a 69 SVT and a 73 810. Please pardon the grillcloth...I'm getting legit Ampeg cloth soon:

I don't have the Markbass combo anymore, but I still have the stack on the left, a 73 Fender Super Reverb that was blackfaced, and a 89 or 90 Tube Works 410T I bought from Dave LaRue:

Yeah, the harmonic vibratos on those browns ('60-'63) are awesome.

I have more pics of that room..I just didn't post them because they're mostly guitar amps, and since this a bass forum I refrained from posting them..But here goes for your amusement:

I've never played through a tube Thor but the solid state one, with it's vertical array of 10s is tonally yummy too.

OOOOH YEA!

Here's my latest family photo...nothing vintage or too exotic, but it all sounds really good. A few pieces are missing...a Crate PowerBlock amp, a Sonic 112 cabinet, an Avatar C15 and a couple little off-brand but fine sounding little guitar combos.
