Just had the amp checked out and retubed and it sounds amzing, unfortunately I am moving and can't keep it. This is an amazing blonde bandmaster. This is some info from an estute Ebayer "dog bone & rougher blonde tolex. The 6G amps have all sorts of cosmetic anomalies as tolex was a new product. If you look at your cabinet, the round brown discolorations are from the interaction of pine sap with the tolex. It was a big reason why they eventually went to black tolex. In the 6G years, there are at least 3 basic cosmetic concepts that changed each year. The combos were all brown(except the Twin) and the separate head/cab arrangements are all blonde. The grill cloth changed each year as did the texture of the tolex. In that way, the 60-63 Fender amps are entirely a transitional period that the company left too soon in my opinion.". The chasis and circuit is blonde, the power transformer is a blonde bassman (think Brian Setzer), while the output and choke are a blackface bandmaster. This was the way I bought the amp. It comes with a new footswitch for the tremolo.I tried to include as many pictures as possible. Please look at all the pictures. This is an incredible sounding vintage amp!!! Shipping is $75
