Looking for some Insight in Dumble Steel String Singer Phase Inverter
#1
After reading the Dumble chapter in TUT6 (if you don't have it get it!)  I got really interested in the different Dumble circuits. Most are simply variations of what is in TUT6  but the Steel String Singer caught my attention since it's a little different. Basically what I'm seeing is the Dumble clean channel but with a reverb configured a bit like standalone reverb unit and switchable filter.  That makes sense to me.  

However the topology of the phase inverter does not. It looks like a schmitt but has a cathode follower for each drive line.  Is there any benefit to this approach over the standard plate driven configuration? Has anyone here played an amp with this topology? I've attached a schematic!

Hmmm....I've having trouble  attaching  the PDF.  Hopefully you guys can still envision what I'm talking about....
