Hello all, Long time lurker first time poster. I have just come into a Paul amp from the 60's I believe? I know very little about this amp BASS MK II

Ive included a pic or 2
hope you can help
also The speaker is a Jensen and since it weighs very little so I'm assuming their is no MAgnet in the speaker.

I appologize seeing as I know very little about amps
It has 3 power tubes big ones and 3 pre tubes smaller ones

here are some pics

I have higher res pics but I uploaded these so they wouldn't take up so much space

I've seen lots of variations of these Canadian-made budget amps. Most were combos with an 8" speaker, single-ended and had series-string heaters. The
last characteristic made them extremely unsafe to use. If yours doesn't have a power transformer then it has series-string heaters. I've never seen a head and cabinet before but have a "Supreme" combo large enough to put a 15"
speaker in but with only an 8", also made by Pine.

The fact that is has 6 tubes in it makes it unlikely that it has series heaters. Besides, IMO the danger in those amps is overstated, but I digress.

The Jensen would have to have a magnet, it would not operate without one. Could you post a pic, or a link, of it? A wide shot of the speaker plus a close up of the numbers on it would help identify it.

Also, could you list the types of tubes it has, that would help identify what type of amp it is.

I'm confused on the help your looking for with the amp, are you having problems with it? Just want to know more about it?

Cool looking amp BTW.

I have one of these. A tiny lil combo I bought strictly because my name is Paul. Is this one for sale?? Horribly constructed lil cardboard monsters. Mine sounds kinda.. Eh, ya know? Nothing special. Just like an anemic champ. The look is cool though and they have my name on em!
