VINTAGE Fender Bandmaster Reverb Amp TFL 5005D
The Fender Bandmaster Reverb TFL 5005D is one of those under-the-radar silverface gems — big, clean Fender tone with lush onboard reverb and tremolo, all in a head format that’s as flexible in the studio as it is on stage. These mid-’70s Bandmaster Reverb heads have a sweet, full voice with tons of clean headroom, warm breakup when you push them, and that unmistakable Fender shimmer on top. If you’re chasing classic American tube tone without paying Twin Reverb money (or hauling one), the Bandmaster Reverb sits in a beautiful sweet spot.
Key Features:
-
Vintage Silverface Fender tone — bold cleans, smooth midrange, and musical breakup

-
Vintage condition with honest cosmetic wear typical for a working mid-’70s Fender head
Condition: Vintage and fully functional. Shows expected cosmetic wear from age — tolex marks, patina on hardware, and general scuffs — but no structural issues. Tubes sound strong, controls respond cleanly, and both reverb and tremolo behave exactly as they should. A great survivor and a fine example of a player-grade Bandmaster Reverb.
