Hi everybody,

does anybody know the difference between a Tweed Bandmaster and a Tweed Twin (low power version), in particular regarding the tone, dynamics and breakup ? I use so far a Tweed Deluxe I'm very happy with but I am looking for an amp which offers a basically the same warm sound and tube overdrive at higher volumes - plus a bit more headroom at lower volumes.

Thanks in advance.

I am told the 5e5a Pro is more along the line of the 5e3 deluxe. The Twin is a bit different but more power yet. The bandmaster is like the Pro but uses three tens with a different output tranny I believe.
