We just received about 120 basses, guitars and amps from Tom Hamilton of Aerosmith. Tom is a founding member of Aerosmith. After 50 years in one of the hardest touring bands ever, he’s accumulated so much gear that’s he’s asked us to help put it in the hands of people who can love it as much as he has. This gear has made rock ‘n’ roll history on the world’s largest stages and most intense studio scrutiny. Now it’s your turn to take it, and make your own rock history.

From the Tom Hamilton Aerosmith Collection. This early 1960s Ampeg B-15N Portaflex Flip Top bass amp was part of Tom’s collection of Aerosmith recording amps. The legendary Ampeg B-15 earned it’s spot at the top of the best recording bass amps for decades. These things sound amazing. Not loud enough for the Aerosmith live stage but an absolute dream to record with.

The amp was tested by Tom’s techs and is in excellent working condition with no notable issues. Includes a COA signed by Tom Hamilton and is identified by an Aerosmith inventory tag.
