What exactly is the difference between the blackface Tremolux and Bandmaster heads? Is the circuit different or is it just the cabinet that it came with?
Tremolux uses tube rectification whereas the Bandmaster and Concert use solid state otherwise it is mostly the same circuits are almost identical. The input cap to the phase inverter is 500p in piggyback amps and 1n in the combos.
