There's acres of chat around this subject on Talkbass (and I suspect that there are far more users in the US than in the UK and Europe). The main points seem to be that the 751 mid centres on 800 (400 for the 750), the 751 has an active stack, and the 751 lost the sometimes hissy driver valve - an AU7 from memory. A lot of players seem to put a Telefunken in the V1 position in both (I haven't). I've been playing these for well over 20 years and I'd happily use either. For me, there's very little difference, though the 751 is perhaps more tweakable, and the 750 more desirable. I prefer the '50s sci-fi lab aesthetic of the 750. The difference was once described to me as 'the 750 is the amp the engineers built, the 751 is the amp the accountants built'. The cost control is a little more evident in the 751. Both absolute monster amps and my favourites by a large margin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
