Is there any other differences b/w the HD130 and HD150 heads other than 20watts? I have my heart set on a HD150 reverb, but wonder if I should be willing to settle on a HD130 if one becomes available. |

There are several differences:
1. The HD-130 can have either a tube phase splitter circuit (older models w/12AX7) or the solid-state phase splitter (newer models w/JE1692 transistors). The HD-150 has a solid-state phase splitter w/2N6488 transistors.
2. The HD-130 is wired for 6CA7/EL34 output tubes, the HD-150 is wired for 6L6 output tubes.
3. The HD-130 is available with or without Reverb & Tremelo (and has no Phasor) depending on the model. The HD-150 is available with or w/o Reverb & Phasor and has no Tremelo.
4. The HD-130 has silver badges, the HD-150 has black badges.
That and 20 watts about tells the story.

It should be a great amp (and the loudest of the Music Man family too!).
