I just pulled an 'Ampeg Portaflex' bass tube amp out of a dumpster
(literally) yesterday. It appears to be a 1x15 with 2 6L6GC driving
the output stage. Its a 'flip top' amp covered in black tolex, serial
number 066252. Seems to work fine, its a VERY quiet amp for its
supposed age (I'd guess at least 1960's?). It rattles a little, but i
expect it just needs cleaning up/tightening up a bit, or maybe it needs
a recone. Anyone know much about these amps?
