The other reviews seem to be for different products. This is a 300watt tube head. The tone is absolutely perfect in vintage mode. The OD channel seems nice too but I mostly use the other. The design of components, using separate chassis is clever but is means that you have connectors all over the place. The driver tubes in the power amp section have sleeves making it nearly impossible to remove the tubes without breaking them-bad design. If they had mounted them on the chassis with shields, it would be fine. The top of the wood case is unsupported and flexes- do not put weight on it or it will break from the feel of it. No speak ons unfortunately, but lots of features for most any application. Make sure your cabinet is wide enough for the head- most are not. The auto-bias is a nice addition, as is the front-mounted mute. Overall, it's a reasonable alternative to the SVT, and it is lighter. Nowhere near the quality of the Mesa 400+ I used for years, but as they are out of production, this is my new pick.

I love this!! Great tone and versatility.
Big sound light weight this is perfect!

Great tone. Love the modern channel, the overdrive is sooo good. There is several topics in talk bass forums for more detailed info about EQ and stuff. I use mine with a Fender Neo 410 cab and a Sterling SubRay4 bass.

Visually, the amp is very sleek and classy-looking. Structurally, it feels very solidly-built, with no rattling parts of any kind. I plugged mine into a 4ohm 4x10 Fender Rumble Cabinet (the previous iteration, not the newer 8ohm V3 version), and started working the dials.

First of all, it is worth noting that you should start the Vintage Channel EQ at Fender's classic flat setting, where the Bass and Treble controls are both at 1, and the Mid at 10. That's a good starting point from which you can boost and cut to taste. My only modification to that setting was to activate the "Deep" circuit by pulling up the Bass pot to boost the low end and mellow the midrange a little. I also set the Channel Volume control at "10", and used the Master Volume to keep me at bedroom playing level. Playing a Fender Precision Bass Special with P/J pickups, I got a warm, vintage tone with just the right amount of Midrange to cut through the mix. Think late 60's/early 70's stuff. Rolling the tone dial back on my bass gave me a really nice Motown vibe.

Switching to the Overdrive channel, again I set my Gain and Channel Volume at 10, while still controlling my output with the Master control. I left the Blend control at 1, and started with the EQ flat at 6 across the board. From there, I pulled up the Bass pot to activate the Deep circuit, set the Mid sweep at 5, with the level set at 7, and boosted the Treble control to 8. This gave me a punchy, modern, semi-scooped tone which, at band practice, allowed me to fully support the low end and allow the guitars to occupy most of the mid space. For a little more overdrive grit, I simply boosted the Blend control by one notch. Really, really nice stuff.

Overall, I am very pleased with the amp. It's rugged, looks professional and sounds great! Plus, it held its own VERY well against two loud guitarists and an equally loud drummer. At one point, with my volume set at just under 5, I was actually too loud. If you're trying to decide between this amp or something louder, give some serious thought to the venues in which you expect to play. For most of us, my gut says this amp will provide more than enough power - especially with PA support.

My ONLY real complaint about this amp is the "Dogbone" carry handle that Fender uses. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT try to carry this amp by that handle alone. It is cheap and will likely break under the amp's weight if you use it for too long. If you do some research on these Dogbone handles, you will find many other people have found this out the hard way. When carrying the amp, always use the spring-loaded side handles. Cheap carry handle aside, this is a very nice amp that's worth considering.

The Fender Bassman Pro 100T is a very nice tube amp with two input channels, 4 6550 power tubes and am auto bias circuit . I am playing the amp with matching Fender 410 neo cabinet for over a year now (yes, the cab is light weight too!). No problems whatsoever and the amp performs very reliably. I am sure that this amplifier will last for many years of trouble free service. It is pretty loud with the 410 neo, which I believe is quite efficient. I would say for small to medium club blues gigging it will work very well, but it also has DI for plugging into a PA system if needed. A little more money upfront will save you chiropractor and technician bills down the road. It is not a small amp but it does not weigh much either. Yet, it provides a weighty tube tone through either one of two input channels. I played different amps over the years, including MOSFET and other solid state amps. Don't let the 100W into any impedance (2, 4 or 8 ohms) fool you, it can compete handily with solid state amps claiming 500 Watts. However, back to he tubes was a real treat for me. There are larger, smaller, more powerful, lighter or cheaper amps available, but I am very pleased with this amp and cab.
