In the beginning Fender paired small combo amps with lap steels and electric guitars aimed at student players, but word of the superior tone and build quality quickly spread among professional musicians. Ultimately as previously mentioned, LOUDER is going to come from different speakers, but you can get a little cleaner longer with the Bassman OT and bumping the mids a little.Founded in the mid-1940s in Fullerton, California by Leo Fender, the legendary amps produced by this company have been heard on countless recordings and are influential on countless other amp makers. Increasing the midrange has the effect of increased gain, although actually it just makes the tone stack less lossy. A Twin or most other blackface amps with middle controls use a 10K middle pot. You can pretend you have a middle control cranked up by removing the typical 6.8K middle resistors and replacing them.

Your mileage may vary, but I prefer that sound. I play Fenders with the mid controls cranked. This is worth mentioning because you will also not have middle controls on the Bandmaster head.

Since the basic Blackface circuit pretty much a Blackface circuit, I have to conclude that the transformer is the reason for the difference.ДЄlso worth mentioning is another minor mod I did to the tone stacks on the Bassman.

The other 50W Fender amps seem to crack up a little sooner than the Bassman.

The 'Normal' Channel is your standard Blackface circuit. I keep the amp at right around 5, which is just on the verge of breakup (I A/B this amp with an AC30 + boost for crunch). It also doesn't get 'farty' with humbuckers, although my LP has fairly low output as humbuckers go, and I've never tried anything hotter than that. Adds a nice thump and twang to the bottom end of a telecaster without getting distorted when I want clean. I used the deep switch to select between a. On the Bassman, I modded the 'bass' channel as basically a 5f6A preamp complete with the cathode follower, since the extra tube was available. The Bandmaster definitely does not have the bottom end of the Bassman. My primary gigging amp is a somewhat modified 68 Bassman head.

A Bassman head transformer however, would most definitely extend and clean up the bottom end. Certainly not enough to justify the cost. The answer to your original question is basically 'yes.' But a TR transformer really won't do you that many favors.
