I have a 2005 vintage :D Bassman 250 / 210 - Rated output of 250 watts at 4 ohms.

Does anyone know what the amp power output rating is at 8 ohms?

Ohms law suggests 125w, but we all know there is a power factor involved.

now that the warranty is expired, I'm planning on loading it with two 16 ohm speakers so I can run an extension cab.

Thanks!

125 watts sounds about right. Fender didn't spec this amp at 8 ohms in the owner's manual. If you don't have one here is a link to one: http://www.americanmusical.com/ItemFiles/Manual/FenderBassman250BassAmpsManual.pdf

Whether it in reality is 100 watts or 150 watts RMS the difference either way would be like 0.75 db either way from 125 watts. So very little difference.
