Brownface Bandmaster = surf music nirvana! I put a new mercury magnetics oversized OT transformer in it when I got it and it probably added the equivalent of 10 watts of power, plus it sounds so sweet. It's plenty loud but not quite Showman loud, which is fine with me.
I often play with my new Quilter Steelaire, which is a fantastic amp and SO LIGHTWEIGHT! but when it comes to getting the best surf guitar lead tone I can, this is the one.
PS I've since put on proper brownface era Fender badges.
This looks anyway like a Transitional blackface, grill cloth and logos, unless those have been changed. You are right of course, no discussion. Although when it comes to volume the Showman is a step ahead. But in the end a Bandmaster is a mini-showman.
Anyway... why did you post all these cool facts in the Surfer Joe Festival thread  Is it an excuse to tell me to offer Bandmasters as backline for the festival? hahahahhahahaha

Well I am working at my desk and got the email notification. And when I see beautiful amps my brain reacts immediately!

In the meantime, check the video, COMMENT IT, share it with friends, pre-advise your mama that next year, in June, you will be out of home for a few days to come to listen and dance to crazy surf music in bella Italia.
Bump for the surfer joe video:

BTW it's a legit 62 bandmaster. I got it for $200 as it was a punk rock beater, but after a little rehab it's an f'n surf machine now. None of the cosmetics are original, but the chassis is.

I bumped it, so people who missed it on the last page, might see it now.
There was some amp talk, that could possibly distract people from the video.

BUONGIORNO.
The festival dates are finally announced. The concerts' line up, the exhibition and seminars schedule, and so on, will be announced on JANUARY 1st as usual. I will spend my first hour of the new year working on the web site only for you people!
So, the online ref for everything is still www.surferjoefestival.com
This is outdated of course, it will be properly adjusted with details asap.
It is going to be great, again lots of concerts.
Get ready and start preparing your Italian vacation...

A very good poster.
Who did draw it?
See you at least in Ulm on January 21st, 2017 Lorenzo.
If I will manage again to come to the festival depends on my health and financial situation in the summer of 2017.

Yooooooooo! SURF COMMUNITY!
We are getting closer to JANUARY 1st - the magic date that will see the annual announcement of the SURFER JOE SUMMER FESTIVAL 2017.
Now it's the time that Surfer Joe becomes again spammy, annoying, over-promoting... I know some of you might hate me for this, but I honestly and deeply don't give a shit if you do 
Claiming to be a surf fan and not coming to the Surfer Joe Summer Festival is just a crime. YES! You don't come = you are a criminal! (of course if you tried hard and you really cannot you are forgiven...)
Anyway, we will have again a cool program, I am very excited to see you all once more in this global surf meeting of friends. And with me as always Luca, Francesco and all our team at Surfer Joe.
JUNE 22-25... announcement coming on January 1st.
FACEBOOK EVENT >> https://www.facebook.com/events/760943924071467/
WEB SITE >> www.surferjoefestival.com (will be updated soon...)

Dear Mr. Santa Claus, all I really want is a plane ticket to the Surfer Joe Festival. I have been very good this year. You can even ask my wife!
