Vintage 1964 Selmer Truvoice Bassmaster 50 Amplifier 1960s
It’s not often you find an original ‘crocodile period’ Selmer Truvoice Bassmaster 50 head. I found this in West London, where it had been for many decades. The amplifier includes some 1970s replacement EL34, but the original (3 of 4) Mullard ECC83 valves. The transformers have had some work done to them. The mains transformer is a nice original lay-down (Marshall style!) replacement from the late 1960s, and the output transformer is a slightly later Douglas transformer. The choke is original to the amplifier. With the transformer changes, the rectifier valve has been removed. The condition of this is very good indeed, as pictured. It is an amazing example. This amplifier has been serviced to a playable & safe standard, by one of our leading amp techs. To find out more about what our service includes, please check out our terms and conditions before purchasing. Get in touch for any more info – I’m always willing to do a deal including part exchange and trades!

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
