I'm interested to know how a black/silverface such as a super break up compares with a tweed amp such as a bassman. I know that tweed amps are much thicker sounding but are the other amps like this or do they have a cleaner thinner sound when cranked to ten? I would like to know from anyone who has humbuckers how it sounds.

Welcome to the Forum Willguitarman. I have experience with the '65 BF Super Reverb (bought in 1965 lol) . The finest 45 watt amp ever made IMHO YMMV (to quote my favorite Martian). Try as many of the amps you have mentioned in your post as you can and the let us know how it goes. Have fun here !

If you "know" that then you should be able to answer your own question.
