69 Fender Bandmaster reverb ohms output

Ive got a 69 head and Im building a cab. ive got a couple of Jensen C10Q's and 8ohms and Id like to know my impedance before I wire the thing up! Also a clue on how to wire the speakers would be good too! Im kinda green at this.
Thanks LARGE gang!

Your amp has a 4 ohm output transformer.

If the speakers are 8 ohms apiece, wire them in parallel to get 4 ohms.

Here is a page with instructions to do it.

Thanks Regis!

Thanks alot for the info.. cool page too! I got the cab working. Ive still got to get the tolex and some corners and a handle and oh yeah the grille cloth. Even so.. it sounds great. I put in 2 Jensen C12Q's bought em online for 40 bucks each. The BandMaster is sounding sweeet! It does crackle a bit when I first turn it on though. Is that normal.. ?
Thanks!
Ben
