Same speakers, same cabinet, different tolex...different sound

Re: Same speakers, same cabinet, different tolex...different sound

People just don't pay enough attention to the critical details .... tone glue and tone tolex are vital factors but mostly totally (and tonally) overlooked.

Ehh they're the same circuits too, except my Green is 120w and the Orange is 80w, and the Green has more gain on tap. This is obviously a function of the color of the tolex.

Do they both have the same B+? That could make a big difference. EVH got more distortion by lowering the B+ with a Variac.

Got schematics for both specific amps? I could dissect them for ya.

maybe the speakers in one are wired backwards
