Who knows who it was, why he did it, or where or when? Hard to
say. It was probably in a rowdy roadhouse in Bakersfield or some
place like that. What we do know is that some unknown guitarist
“appropriated” his bass player’s amp for some reason, thus
discovering that the sturdy 4x10” Fender Bassman, while a fin e bass
amp, also happened to be a real beauty of a guitar amp. If you’ve
ever cranked one up, you know. It’s still true today.
