Strangely enough in the Amps the difference wasn't as obvious as was in a guitar.
Specially with old caps like the Paper-n-Oil and the old Bumble Bee's, the low end was nicer sometimes but the mid and highs were mucked about with a little too much for me, specially when one is focussed on that mid-honk which can interfere with pulling other nice tones available from the wood (sometimes).
The Black Beauties I have are NOS, I got them from an old guy who used to run a radio repair shop.
Old guy, that's funny, here I am 50 and I'm calling him and "old guy", well life rolls on until....
Amen to that.
