The Tone Master ’59 Bassman amplifier uses massive digital processing power to achieve a single remarkable feat: faithfully modeling the circuitry and 45-watt power output of an original Bassman tube amp. Using a high-performance class D power amp to achieve the headroom and dynamics of the tube amp, the result is pure Bassman tone that’s virtually indistinguishable from the original.
This remarkable Fender technology is paired with the sparkle and touch sensitivity of four Jensen® P-10R speakers, as well as player-centric additions like convolution spring reverb, a vintage/tight switch for smoother bass response and a post-power amp effects loop. Other features include an output power selector for full power and five attenuated settings, impulse response (IR) XLR line output for detailed cabinet simulations, mute switch, and lightweight pine cabinet.
The Tone Master '59 Bassman is a perfect replication of the legendary tube amplifier with modern features for today’s most demanding professionals. It sounds like the original, without the extra weight and maintenance.
Our power convolution spring reverb model is a modern addition to the classic tweed era Bassman circuit.
Post amp model effects loop for delay and other time based effects. A first on Tone Master Amplifiers.
This amp’s rear panel is packed with useful controls and connections: Vintage/Tight switch for smoother bass response, line output with level control, ground lift switch and a three-way IR cabinet simulation switch to select various microphone options.
Enjoy full, natural tone at almost any volume—from a full 45W of Fender power down to bedroom and apartment-friendly 0.5W.
Jensen® Alnico speakers are the traditional Fender speakers, with sweet articulation for clean sounds and cool vintage-style breakup when pushed.
