Well, the original 5F6A was designed as a bass amp back in the 50's. 8)

However, with an open back cab and four 10" speakers, it makes a better guitar amp than bass amp, especially in much of today's music.

Note: This should have been posted in the Modern Amp forum, not the Vintage Amp forum.

If you simply must have a tweed combo bass amp, you'll have better luck with one of the new TV-front Bassman's.
