Just remember, Princetons, Deluxes, Vibroluxes etc. also don't have a mid control. You can boost the mid by cutting treble and bass and increasing volume. Sometimes I set things up this way depending...

I have done a number of side by side comparisons. I have 4 original DeArmond's of which 2 are 1100's, 1 is a 1000, and the other is the Rhythm Chief. I also have 4 of the reissues. I had one reissue...

The Milkman 100 is a great amp, and being a "Pedal" amp. it could be used very well in a "no amp" situation where one is going direct into a PA. It is a Class D solid state amp with a tube pre-amp...
