Why We Love This Product!

Real-deal Fender Tone!

The Fender Band-Master VM Tube Head sports genuine Fender tube tone, looks, and performance — at a price you'll love. The 40-watt Band-Master VM Tube Head uses genuine 12AX7 and 6L6 tubes to give you 40 watts of true Fender sound, and adds a healthy dose of easily accessible DSP effects. Plug into this 2-channel powerhouse and you'll be able to go from classic Blackface to heavy crunch, with ease. And, thanks to the classic styling, there's no mistaking this head for anything but a Fender when you take the stage. You get genuine Fender tone — and plenty of it — with the Band-Master VM Tube Head.


Fender Band-Master VM Tube Head quick look:
    • Genuine Fender tube tone, with a modern twist
    • Excellent DSP effects right onboard
    • Plenty of tube power and a range of tones

Genuine Fender tube tone, with a modern twist
Fender tube amps set the standard for others to follow, and they're still a gigantic part of top players' rigs. Popular models like the Showman and Band-Master, the first pro tube heads on the market, are considered collectors items today. The Band-Master VM amp takes the desirable mid-powered tube head concept to "Vintage Modified" performance by combining a genuine tube amp with a complement of essential effects.

Plenty of tube power and a range of tones
The Band-Master VM Tube Head produces 40 watts from its 6L6-driven power section, making it loud enough for the stage while allowing you to turn up and take advantage of all that power-tube goodness. This amp's versatile tube preamplifier section offers lots of tone and gain settings &mdash ;from world-standard Blackface Fender clean to aggressive overdrive with post-gain EQ.

Premium DSP effects right onboard
Fender made premium effects right into the Band-Master VM Tube Head. The built-in DSP platform adds reverb, chorus/vibrato, and delay effects with the convenience and tweakability of standard stompboxes, without the need for extra cables or power supplies. The Band-Master VM amp (combined with its companion 212 VM enclosure — sold separately) is the perfect head/cabinet rig for onstage versatility and big, fat Fender tone.
