Since then a lot of amps have come and gone. Even a blackface showman and a blackface bandmaster. But the amp that has shone over all others for me has been the brownface 'blonde' bassman 6g6-b that Ryan built.
Ive had for a long time a hankering for a big iron balls out 85w 4x6l6 clean beast but with that brownface tone stack. The early iteration of of the showman is what dick dale used to make miserlou tones. And thats what I intend to build

Today I ordered a chassis, face plates and filter cap housing from ebay. Ive also started to make a list of components and done some basic pricing.
At the moment im thinking brown tolex but I might yet be swayed to blonde....
