Now, if this wasn't in a JERRY TONE section I'd have a much different opinion on this head. So it will not really sound like a Twin or half a Twin.Īnd to get it there will be a few hours on a tech bench + tank + tubes + new OT and that's assuming it doesn't need caps or any other components that may have drifted.

That will be alot of work, actually, and not reversible.įurther, the OT (output transformer) is smaller and therefore will break up early. modify housing to add a reverb tank or maybe need a repro REVERB head change circuit and modify chasis to add:Ģ. I'm not sure why anyone is saying it's easy and inexpensive:ġ. Heads with reverb are about 4" taller than that for the reverb tank to lay in it. 1954, that amp is in a short head therefore no reverb. I read each and every post but my opinion was directly to Cmnaround based on his original post. I always found the amp to not be quite what I wanted sound wise. The head is named after on of Fenders most revered classic models, but when you get beyond the blackface styling, you. I was given a ’64 Bandmaster head that I rebuilt to pretty good working conditions. Sorry if you did read them, just seems like ya didn't. The Bandmaster VM head and its accompanying 2 x 12 cabinet are the latest additions to Fenders Vintage Modified range of amplifiers, which aims to blend elements of vintage and modern amps together.

I have a SMS and do love it, but like I said your post is sounding like you didn't read all the other posts.
Blackface bandmaster head mods#
Some do have reverb, and the mods are very simple and inexpensive. Hippieguy1954 wrote:Hey Strumminsix, if you read the posts before yours, you can see that what your saying is debatable.
