Mike;
As a personal preference I always preferred the look of the Model 20s over the later Baby Grand cabinets, though the chassis is only a TRF, they were obviously built to a budget since they use 171As in push pull rather then the more modern #45s, but in a table model that's more then enough. The model 21 is the same set with a Coombs styled cabinet, which was eventually used with the model 70 chassis, the 90 cab is obviously larger, and that may explain why it has a peak, likely to make it look less bulky, but also to offer a perceived value over it's cheaper sibling.

Arran
