Guy I was gonna grab the Bassman from is at the Cape for the weekend and can't meet up. Might try to meet with him on Tuesday. Your 68 must be a Silverface? I had a 72 Bassman 100 for a few years. It was a cool amp, but a bit to jangly and clean. The blackface amps are supposed to be a bit dirtier.
I went down to GC today and played a Mesa M9 Carbine. Thought it smoked. Cuts like a knife or can give you a nice clean bass tone. Seemed really versatile, much more so that the old 400's and 400+'s that I've played. Pretty pricy though.

It's not him, a friend restored one last year and said me may sell it.

Got a deal in the works. Trading my Rivera Pubster 45 for a '65 Bassman. Also, picked up an old Ampeg 410HE today for a song and have an Aguilar DB112 due to ship my way.

Aguilar is pretty high end stuff, how's the tone of that cab?

Haven't heard it yet, but have read good things. Due to ship to me in October. Made the deal for the Bassman last night. Also grabbed a modern Fender Vibro-King 2x12 cab to go with it for use with guitar.
