The super and bandmaster tweeds sound rather different to me. (I've only heard vintage supers, never played one ... own a Clark Tyger.) Both formats have their virtues. The super drives earlier. Similar voice, but a bit smaller in the Super, more overdrive lower on the dial.

The Bandmaster is somewhere between that and the bassman. My Tyger sounds so much like the 35 watt, 2 input tweed bassman (4x10) I couldn't afford to bring home. It puts a lot of sound on the stage ... an almost perfect compromise format in terms of gigworthiness, portability ... with this wonderful, singing voice. That said, I have long been tempted to swap out the baffle and make it into a tweed pro. I'd love to hear how this amp sounds with a really nice 15. The tweed pro type is turning into my favorite these days.
