This Fender Bassman was a gift to Jeff Beck from Fender. Steve Prior, Jeff's guitar technician between 1999-2014, recalls Jeff telling him that he had specially requested this amplifier from Fender via former manager Ralph Baker, having seen and heard it in action with Buddy Guy after they had performed together along side blues legends B.B. King, Albert Collins and Eric Clapton at the Apollo Hall of Fame Concert, held at the Apollo Theater in New York on 15 June 1993. Fender had lent it to Guy for the show, and for other shows previously, and Jeff, having hugely admired Guy and his playing for years (the two had first performed together during Jeff's time in The Yardbirds), was particularly keen to acquire this specific amp.
