1965 Ampeg B15 ND
Is anyone familiar with this amp? It's rare. I'm trying to get a value. Any input would be appreciated.

Ampeg B15 ND
I don't know what the ND stands for. I can't figure out how to attach a file here. I only see "manage files." You can google it and find almost the same thing.

ND?
In an interview with Jess Oliver, he says:
"Model A-15, the A stood for Accordion. It was the same as the B-15 but accordion players liked to be assured it was designed for accordion. The B-15, B was for bass. The B-15N, the N stood for new engineering changes. The B-12X and B-18X, the X stood for extra power or extra effects like reverb or vibrato. As for the B15ND, I think that was the same circuitry only made with a printed circuit instead of an eyelet board. I'd have to dig up the schematics to confirm that." |
well..

I played thru B15s in the studios and stages year round for nearly 20 years. My first amp was a B12, sounds like a vitamin, lol. Then I bought the last B18 in stock at Manny's in NYC around 1968 I think. I never owned a B15 personally but they were almost always on the gig there either as the 'house' gear or a rental. |

yes..
The Black one. The older ones were a Blue Tweed look, almost Paisley. Pics of an oldie? I think the re-issue that the current Ampeg company is making has the old Blue color. I recall seeing it in a trade magazine press release.
