Showman circuit

Hi

There is a few circuits for the Showman amp:

1. 6G14
2. AA763
3. AB763
4. AA768 Reverb
5. AC568
6. AA270 Reverb

Which one is preferred by players ? Is there any real difference to the tone ?

Regards

Paul

The 6G14 (white) would be the most different from the rest. This one will have substantially more hair and snarl than the later tamer varieties. It will also typically bring about twice the dough. The reverb models are just head versions of Twin Reverbs. The non-reverb models are essentially Bandmasters w/ 80-100w output sections.
