90's Model Ampeg SVT III PRO - Seeking Detail

Hi everyone,
I've found some TB threads regarding the different SVT3 (Pro) varieties, but not much substantial detail on differences.

I am interested in the model with the Red/Blue "SVT" logo. From the Ampeg website I can find the user manual for the 'current' model, and an older model, but nothing for this "in between model" that is reportedly made in USA. The front end controls are essentially identical to the current model, but I have read that the preamp is different.

Anyone have some tribal or concrete knowledge on this model? Any user manuals floating around?
