Has anyone compared the black twin reverb tone master to the blond one with the Celestion speakers played with steel guitar. Sorry but 6 string comparisons will not tell what I need to know. I need an amp with dual channels but I need it clean even if it is turned up.

I've got a blonde TM Twin, bought it for use when I play guitar/steel gigs (2 channels works better for me). I don't know about how it sounds compared to the black TM Twin, but it sounds great on steel to me, and it's definitely not distorted. I'm a big fan of Celestion speakers (although I've never until now tried a Celestion Neo) and I think the 'color' they have and I like is still there in the Neo. The tone might or might not be to your liking, but I don't think distortion at higher volumes would be a problem. I'm not a really loud player, but I've had mine in 85W mode, volume on about 5 or a bit more, and it was still clean.

I'm curious to see if anyone else has tried the blonde TM for steel, and what they think.

I have owned a Blonde TM Twin for about a month and absolutely love the tone I am getting from this amp. the guitar player in our band also commented on how good it sounds at the last couple of gigs we played. Reverb is good and I am not a big fan of other effects and find the built in reverb to do the job in a live situation. I also have a Black Box in front of it and it does a great job sweetening the tone just the right amount.
