Is there anyone else here who would like to see a '59 Tweed Bandmaster reissue to go along with the Twin and Bassman already out or am I the only one?

I'll tell ya, I'd like to see the classic BF piggyback Bandmaster reissued back offered with both a lightweight small single-12" cab and also double 12" cab option just like the original, which was quite compact and easy to handle itself. I think the market today would demand reverb, so add that on, SS for the circuit is ok.

Also a twin 6V6 head would be beyond awesome! Use the same cabs as above.

Kids today forget, but most of the blues bands that came, for instance, through the coffeehouses of Cambridge in the 60's had BF 2-12 piggybacks, the cab on its end, tall-wise with the head on top. So the knobs were up high and easily accessible to the standing player, and the height of the top speaker allowed it to easily project over the heads of the front rows. I think that is what you call...IDEAL.

You want more projection and bottom end for outdoors...add a cab. Playing a small club, leave cab 2 at home.

Life was not only simpler back then, it was...what's the word, oh ya...BETTER.
