Fender Bassman according to this site:
http://www.bigmuffpage.com/The_Tonebender_Timeline_3.html
"•1969 March - Jimmy Page uses a Tone Bender in a MK II case for Led Zeppelin's Danmark's Radio performance on March 17th (available on the Led Zeppelin DVD). The Tone Bender is wrapped with white tape, possibly because the bottom plate screws were lost, or simply as a quick way to remove the bottom plate to change batteries. Jimmy played through an Arbiter Power One Hundred (similar to a Sound City 105) amp with the drive set high for a dirty tone. A Fender Bassman speaker cabinet is under the Arbiter and a Rickenbacker Transonic cab to the right. Although many people think Jimmy's Tone Bender seems to be on through most of the performance, it is more likely the overdriven tone is simply the Arbiter amp. Jimmy can be seen and heard switching his Tone Bender on for the Dazed and Confused solo and can be heard switching it on for the solo in How Many More Times, then seen turning it off again before the bow solo. Becasue the footage is black and white, it is unclear if this is Page's previous gold Tonebender, or a silver Tonebender. Based on the tape wrapped around the case, this is most likely the sampe silver Tonebender he was seen using shortly thereafter."

Hmmm. I guess there were some cosmetic changes made, then.

The handle placement and corner protectors look similar to a Bassman cab, but the baffle appears to be recessed further and has piping around it. It doesn't appear to have a centre handle either. No idea on the badge.

Looks like it may be slightly deeper than a normal Bassman cab as well?

Possibly just some off brand Fender clone?
