Fender Bantam Bass
The Fender Bantam Bass was a bass
trapezoidal Yamaha speaker using a white styrofoam cone, and so the speakers blew very easily. As a result, the amp was not a commercial success, and it is rare to find a Bantam Bass today that still has its original speaker.[1] The Bantam tone circuit was used in the Bassman 10
combo amps, introduced in 1972, but these were barely good enough to compete with the other amps available at the time.
