The 1483 was a fine, straightforward bass amplifier. The successor to the 1473, and the predecessor to the solid-state 1463. It was listed in the Spring/Summer 1965 catalog simply as "The Bass Amplifier." The 1483 was easy to carry around with its amp-in-the-back storage, had a respectable amount of power, and the 15-inch Jensen put all 23 watts to 'room-shaking' use.
