Fender 6G12 Concert Amp 01529 (1960)

The brown 6G12-A Concert model is one of the most underrated mid-powered amps Fender produced, In many ways bridging the gap between the legendary narrow-panel Tweed Bassman and Super Reverb, the Concert provides 40 watts of glorious dual 6L6/5881 power.

It shares its DNA with the Bassman, most notably in the power and output sections. For that reason, the Concert pushes the high fidelity character of the late 50s Bassman forward, with the distinct midrange voice of the early 60s brown amps. The solid state rectifier also tightens up the overall feel, similar in the way the 6G6-A/B Blonde Bassman responds. It also features the incredible harmonic vibrato circuit that has become a fixture in the bigger Brown/Blonde Fenders.

This is about as early an example as you'll encounter on the market, representing the earliest iterations of the model with its original rough tolex. The tube chart stamp of 'JH' indicates August 1960 production. The amp was just recently serviced including a recap, and is loaded with a quartet of Weber Alnico Signature 10" speakers. It's got a replaced handle in the correct style as well. It sounds rich and clear, with the perfect mix of punch and sweetness that great 10" alnico speakers can deliver in a circuit like this. The harmonic tremolo is to die for, and almost single-handedly worth the price of admission.

Includes single-button brown footswitch and an aftermarket slipcover. On Consignment.
