Nirvana's Bleach-Era Touring Backline Goes Up For Sale

Black and silver panel Fender Twins loaded with JBL speakers, the exact rig used during Nirvana's early touring days, have gone up for sale.

MusicRadar's Jonathan Horsley reported on the sale, noting "bring yer own Boss DS-1 and you're good to go." The amps represent a crucial period in Nirvana's sonic evolution, before the band transitioned to Mesa/Boogie amplifiers for the Nevermind sessions.

For gear historians and tone chasers, these amps offer a direct connection to the raw, abrasive sound that defined the Seattle grunge movement.

More on the radar.
