COULD THIS BE YOUR VINTAGE GIGGING TONE FOR THE NEXT 20+ YEARS?

Welcome to this 1966 Fender Bandmaster. This amplifier has undergone a comprehensive restoration by myself with the aim of preserving its vintage character while making it a dependable amplifier for regular use.

Offering the ideal balance of gigging power, exceptional clean headroom and the unmistakable Fender sound, it excels as a pedal platform while retaining the history of a genuine mid-'60s blackface amplifier. The circuit has been carefully inspected, previous modifications reversed, and age-related components replaced with carefully selected, high-quality parts to maximise reliability.

Whether you're looking to buy your first vintage Fender or simply want an amplifier you can rely on for years to come, this represents an opportunity to own the real deal over an inferior modern product at this price point.

Every step of the restoration has been documented, and this record will be supplied to the new owner. The amplifier has been fully tested, including rehearsal and gig use, where it proved remarkably toneful and with an impressively low noise floor. The tremolo operates perfectly, and the amp is ready to be enjoyed immediately.

Please get in touch before purchase if you have any questions or would like to arrange a viewing. The amplifier is currently listed as collection only, although I'm happy to discuss shipping or delivery options (UK only). For additional peace of mind, I'm prepared to continue to support the amplifier after the sale and stand behind my work.

Points to note:

- Original rear panel is not present.

- Tremolo footswitch is not included (I can supply a shorting plug if required to enable the effect).

- There are cosmetic marks and signs of use consistent with its age. Please refer to the photographs.
