I think the main visual difference is a white rounded box around the eq toggle. The schematics I downloaded has a separate set for the B. I'm not very familiar with schematics, so I'm not sure exactly what the differences are.
Anyway, I've decided on the DC-5 so I can afford other gear to go...
Well, I've never used an amp before so I don't have anything effects-wise right now. However in the future if I do some live playing, I might want to do it.
I am however interested in the master volume mod.
I just found a schematic here...
Is there a part list available so I can find out what caps I need? My dad builds/repairs amps for a hobby/side job so I'll probably get him to do it for me.
Well, I went with the hardly used amp because it is a B model. I should have a DC-5 combo at my door by Monday or Tuesday. Woohoo!
In the mean time I'm researching isolation cabs. Any one have experience with them? Certain brands better than others?

Going to ask about those particular things you...
Yeah I think I'm going to go with a DC-5 for now.
That said... when shopping on ebay is there anything I should look out for, red flags etc...or any questions I should ask the seller?
