Welcome, you are looking at a great piece. 
This is the Vintage 1971 Fender Bassman Electric Guitar Tube Amplifier.
The Bassman is one of the most celebrated amplifiers of all time. Beginning life in the 50s as a bass amplifier, guitar players players quickly claimed it as their own.
That great tube tone- especially when pushed- creates those classic tones we have heard live & on record for the last 50 years. 
The Bassman is 50 watts of all tube power- dual Tung-Sol 6L6's, (3) 12ax7's, and (1) 12AT7.
Point to point wired for the ultimate in responsive tone.
Two channels- Bass & Normal.
Both channels have Volume, Treble, & Bass controls.
The Bass channel has that great compressed warm tone-engage the Deep switch for an even warmer tone- perfect for jazz comps.
The Normal channel has that famous Fender sparkle- great for strummed cleans.
On either channel, as you push the volume, you encounter a lot of really cool classic tones.
From 'pushed' Nashville cleans, to amazing tube sustain.
This beauty is in good overall condition- typical marks from age and normal use.
The power cord was changed to 3-prong at some point
This Bassman has been tested and works as it should.
