I recently purchased a Kasino "concert" Bass head, and later a matching "Lounge" guitar amp. Both have the blue metal face. Was there a difference in the years of production Blueface vs. Striped cloth? Or was it just solely a model diffence? I understand that Kasino was produced respectively from 71-75?
Thanks, woodsey

You can gain a lot of info on the Kasino tab on the left. The striped versions were the first with the amps and bass amps having the amps in the speaker cabinets. The second stripe versions were the Little Joe, Fever, Natural, and Bass. They were the best of all the kasinos for features, the last series were the blue faced amps that were the exact match to the Kustom line at the time. 1970 to 75 were the years Kasino's were in the lineup.

Hi pleat,
Thanks for the response. do you know if Kasino line made a matching Bass speaker cab to go with the heads, or did the musicians just use Kustom cabs?

On the left side of your screen, there are the listings you can click on. Click the literature tab, then click Kasino, on that page you can click on any of images to enlarge them.
Yes, Kasino made matching 115 and 2x15 cabs along with a folded horn 15" cabinet.
