This is another recording experiment to see if I got a better sound by recording the two Tweed Bassman amps out of phase.  Also, this is a notice to let you know I will be out of touch for the next two weeks.  I think the recording still sounds better with the amps "in phase" versus "out" except at the end when I kick in the Vibe Baby.  I think the Vibe sounds cool with the amps out of phase.  Phasing is something you have to be careful of when you use two or more amps.  It the speakers on one amp vibrate the exact opposite (phase shift) of the other amp, some frequencies with cancel each other out depending on the room and it is usually the bass frequencies that suffer most.  So, if you play to amps together and they are sound kind of thin, then they are most likely out of phase.  A good amp switcher will have a switch to switch one amp to match the phase of the other.
