Re: [Norton AntiSpam][Harp-L] Bassman Reissue or Bassman Reissue LTD?

Most guys prefer the "blue alnico" Eminence speakers of the earlier amps to 
the Italian Jensen's that are in the later models.
Many believe that the later pine cabinet has tonal advantages, it certainly 
is lighter than Baltic birch.
The LTD's have an adjustable bias pot for the power  tubes. This is in my 
opinion the big advantage but one can be installed on the earlier amps.
The later amps have a finish coating on the tweed. Much nicer for keeping 
clean.

Haven't posted in a while but this is one I've been curious about. I know a 
few of the differences between the first Bassman Reissue and the RI LTD but 
I was wondering if anyone has had the opportunity to compare them. Which 
seemed better for harp and why? If you haven't had a chance to compare, I'd 
be happy for any input on the theoretical advantages of either.
