I recently acquired a B-DEC bass amp that has no display on the LCD. I tested the audio functionality and found it to work great...sounds pretty good and loud for a little amp. Adjusting the knobs and buttons revealed that the digital section also worked fine. I opened it up to see what I could see...and found the ribbon cable from the flat LCD panel torn...thus the reason for no display.

Does anybody have any idea where I might be able to get a replacement? I have searched on the p/n found on the back of the display, but found nothing on the Internet, whatsoever.

Your help would be much appreciated!

Good question. Fender had a policy of replacing those amps instead of repairing them under warranty. I don't know if you'll find that part unless you cannibalize another B-DEC.

Used B-DECs are getting pretty cheap. See:

They are great little bass amps. If I didn't already have one, I would snag the one above for $129.

I'm probably never selling mine. It's perfect for practice and small jams.

The Fender B-DEC 30 is no longer made. However, they did all come with 5-year warranties. Since they were introduced about 5 years ago, many should still be in warranty.
