Looking to downsize to a smaller amp, especially since I have a Bandmaster cab without a head. This is a 1966 Single Showman head that was owned by John Blair with a 1964-66 Single 15 cabinet with tone-ring. The cabinet has a JBL D140F because I used it for bass as well as guitar. Anyway, it has an awesome sound to it. Amp has been re-tolexed in blonde with correct gold sparkle grille for the 1963-4 short blackface period. Looking to trade for a brownface Bandmaster head or will sell outright. I have better pictures of the amp that I will post later, but here it is from last year:

It's been the best-sounding Showman I've ever had. I just don't use it with the Single 15 cabinet anymore because I'm not playing huge outdoor shows. It sounds great with the Bandmaster cabinet, but I think it'd be easier to sell it as a pair with the correct cabinet.
I'm in no hurry, but if you're interested, let me know via PM.

Wow. That is a beautiful amp!
Did you use this one when recording Get Coco-Naughty?

No, this was the live amplifier. We used all small amps for the recording of the CD. I used a Deluxe and the other guitarist used a Princeton.

Cool beans. Its a great sounding album either way! Hey - are you still with the Coconauts?
If I was a good enough player, I would consider that amp - but trust me, no one needs or wants to hear me play that loudly. Yet.

Hey Matt,
I don't have a brownface bandmaster but would you be interested in a 1960 brownface Pro?
