From the vintagehofner site:
The Pick-A-Back and Pick-A-Bass were Wem's first "piggy-back" units, introduced circa 1963 during the transitional Watkins to Wem period. The 14W valve head seems to have been an early version of the ER15, although it is not marked as such. 2-inputs, 2-channels, each with volume, bass and treble controls. The head was common to both models : the cabs bore the model name, and the Pick-A-Back had 2 x 10" speakers as opposed to the single 12" unit in the Pick-A-Bass.... more
