Title: 5e3 tweed deluxe - stevie ray vaughan sound ?
Post by: gitarrero on March 16, 2008, 06:40:39 PM
hi folks,

I've heard some clips of the 5e3, but well - the audio quality is quite compressed, plus I don't know the fender line of amps too much, so here's my question:

does the 5e3 delivers that "steve ray vaughan"-type of sound with a strat (that kind of "shimmer" in the heights - listening example from vaughan: "taxman" (and many other songs))..?

I couldn't find any soundclips from the bassman from ceriatone, so I was wondering if the 5e3 is the similar, or if not, what are the differences.

thanks,

martin

I wouldn't go with 5E3 for SRV tone.

My choice would be some BF, SF like amp (Super Reverb, Vibroverb, even Twin...) with one or two TS-9s.  ;)

..hmmm... ok.

what are the "corresponding models" from f*nder for the ceriatone-models anyway, ie. for what does the ceriatone "super amp" (and all other models) stand for?

that would help defenitly.

thanks,

martin
