Fender responded in fall 1954 with a redesigned version of the amp, the narrow-panel model 5D6—the first 4×10” Bassman. It pumped 40 watts through four 10” blue Jensen P10-R speakers. It still had only two inputs, “normal” and “bright,” indicating that Fender was well aware that the amp was being used by guitar players, too.

During November 1954, Fender introduced the newly designed 5D6 Bassman amplifier offering four 10" speakers and was designed utilizing two rectifier tubes. The 5D6 was a major departure from the earlier 5B6 Fender Bassman model.
