Hello guys (and gals...?), I'm new here.
I just purchased a 5e3, the one that is on YouTube demoed by palmiuga. It happens we live close....
I must say that its quite beautifully sounding. I've been to a shop with my strat to try a fender reissue, and it's the same amp...except for the fact that i found the reissue a tad bit colder, just a little bit more honey on the ceriatone. I'm not able to say now where does the difference come from, both amps have been played in quite dampened and not very big rooms...
The Ceriatone I bought has a Tad cabinet and a Jensen Alnico 5 P12N, I wasn't able to check the Fender reissue....
Anyway it's a great amp, it's a bit difficult to stop playing once you're on!
