Award-Session BB45 BluesBaby

A fantastic, lightweight, 1x12" guitar combo from well-respected British manufacturer Award-Session. With a preamp based on their industry standard JD10 Jerry Donahue pedal and a reliable solid-state 45w 'RetroTone' power amp designed to emulate a valve amp's dynamic characteristics; all pushed through a 12" Celestion V-Type speaker. As the name suggests, the BluesBaby produces a great bluesy/tweed tone in spades, with a smooth, natural breakup when you want it! This amp is also a superb platform for pedalboards and emulator processors.

In excellent condition throughout, and comes with a Fender drop-over cover.
