You got me again, Scott!
I hadn't thought much about wide panels in a long time, and indeed many (Deluxe, Bassman, Pro) use paraphase splitters. By the time you get into the narrow panel tweeds and forward, it is all cathodyne and long-tail.
I personally much prefer the sound of the later tweeds - the early ones are kinda mushy for my taste.
