NAD silver to black to blonde bandmaster

You may recall this amp. It's ex-Bender bandmaster that started life a silver faced head getting black face mods and a tweaked normal channel to Brown/Blonde it up a little. Bought it from Ben a while back and finally got round to doing my own adjustments.
Now featuring a blonde cab and wheat grill, smart new black face plate and cream cupcake knobs.
Returned the old Texas heat neo for portability (the JBL was menacingy heavy).
Quick resolder of a dodgy cap ans we're away.
Has a master volume knob at the back and with this tweaked back a little and some speaker attenuation and the ubiquitous 6g15 outboard reverb this is a diabolically sweet sounding set up.

Looking good
Now you will have to re-tolex the outboard reverb unit to match.

Yeah. Appreciate YT is far from the best place to demo audio gear. Doesn't stop me buying shitloads based on their demos...

Id happily put something up there for you if I could easily do so right now.
I like watching fail videos on you tube. Actually most of my musical prowess would fit quite well into that category come to think of it ....
