There is really no difference, except for the cathode resistor on stage 2 of the Vibrato circuit. It has been mentioned that some values on the phase inverter were changed, but that depends on the actual model, and not the circuit number used across all models. In other words, you will find AA schematics with either choice of phase inverter values. Same goes for the AB schematics.

Brian Arnold,

Look on the back panel it’ll say Columbia musical instruments back there! if its pre-CBS it wont,,you’re 65 isn’t!!!

jim,

Greetings, On my pre-CBS Blackface Deluxe, the tube chart sticker says the circuit is AB763. It was made March of 1965 according to the “OC” date stamp on the sticker. (‘O’ is ’65, ‘C’ is March.) You have these listed as AA763. Can anyone tell me the difference between these two circuits? Thanks (:
