You're probably looking for used, but just in case.

Midwest Buy & Sell in Chicago IL has a few Blackface Bandmasters, & Dual Showman.
They also have some silver face Bassman, Dual Showman & Bandmasters
What I found interesting were the Dual Showman Reverbs & the Bandmaster Reverbs they had instock
Minstrel Music in Niles IL has a very clean Blackface Showman in stock.

And with any old Fender head, Bob can make you a BEAUTIFUL Beaver Bottom cabinet like my 2-12 Bandmaster cab and Reverb chassis:

Just keep that in mind if you find a good head locally and need to match a cab to it. I HIGHLY recommend him as he builds quality stuff. I've been using this Bandmaster cabinet with my Showman and Bandmaster heads for a few years now and I just got the Reverb cab from him last week.

1962 Bandmaster

Brownface Bandy, all original tranformers, tolex, grillcloth, hardware. Large Astrons replaced with Spragues, some resistors replaced, 3 prong cord added. This was a working amp--now electronically perfect. Flash on the pic washed out the color. The Blonde tolex is a more golden hue than blonde from cigarette smoke, with a cool cigarette burn on top of the head. This is the early 30 inch cab, original speakers long gone--now loaded with two 1961 Jensen P12N alnicos.
If interested, make me an offer. I can email more pics and gut shots. I'm jonesing for a Gretsch. Otherwise, wouldn't think of letting it go. Amp is in Los Angeles.

Yes. The original baffle board and center divider board are there. I believe some earlier models had no center board. This one is a 30 inch wide cabinet, with a center board. Below is pic with insulation removed and 1961 Jensen P12N speakers.

Hey rotNroby!
Sold the tone ring. Loaded it with an Eminence Commenwealth and played a 64 Bandy thru it for awhile, then sold both separately. Boy was that cab heavy. I get stuff, pour money into it, get bored and sell it at a loss. I note that you have been selling some good stuff here, too.
I'll trade you the '62 Bandy for that sweet vintage VW Bus you had.

The VW Westy is my mini RV... Thats a keeper>> Yeah Mike, The Gomez Tone ring cabinet was just a beast to move around however, it sounded great!! Been playing my 61 Showman lately I came really close to letting it go here on the "Surf" I was only using my 61 Bandy. Man I'm so glad i didn't. The 61 Showman just pulls like a locomotive freight train !!! My Bandy is perfect for smaller stuff but man The Showman and the Bandmaster together WOW!!!! It hits like a ton of TNT !!! Love it man!! I'm sorry I'm getting carried away here on the wrong thread ... Talk to you soon Mike. On one more note,, Bob over @ Beaver bottoms makes really the best Cabinets for the $$ on this plaint !!!
