American Style / 5E3 Tweed Deluxe / Re: Is the 5e3 right for me?

Thanks for all the info guys! Sounds like the perfect amp for me. I will mostly use it for recording and rarely in a band (i play in a punk-rock band---my marshalls handle that  ). I'm not worried about the cleans either. I usually just set the amp for an overdrive sound and clean up with the help of the guitars volume pot. Do they sound good with greenbacks? I have one of those Marshall 4x12 with greenbacks. mcinku: je že kar nekaj Slovencev na forumu, kajne  I will use English so everybody can understand... Greenback is actually the same speaker I use and I love it. For me it's perfect match for 5E3. You can hear my clip in a 5E3 SoundClip section. I used my 1x12" Greenback cab for that recording. |

Hey Nik!
No need to feel down man.
As long as people are still buying en enjoying your amps, who cares about them nitpickers??
All they do I try to bash you, they'll never buy anything from you anyway so why bother.
Exactly, like I said before, market should decide if this is a good idea. If nobody is buying, why offer such a product. You are not braking any laws, so where's the problem.  ...customers want a good amp at fair price. |

5E3 is a special amp... once you start playing it, you just can let it go.  Just think of it, did you ever heard somebody bashing these amps? I tried to maximize the headroom in mine by installing 6L6, GZ34 tubes (bigger trannies are needed for this) and Vol/Tone Mod from Mission amps. Vol/Tone mod also brighten the amp a bit which is good. These amps are really dark sounding, especially if you don't use the right speaker. After all these mods... let's just say, it'll stay with me forever. |

Oh, ok then - I thought I read on HC you changed from 6V6 to 6L6. Oh well, I'll check out the clips  That would be my BF Champ with switchable bias so I can use both 6V6 or 6L6. |

I tried just two speakers with my 5E3... Jensen C12K - nice speaker but to dark, my next choice was Celestion Greenback and I was sold just as soon as I heard it  . Maybe there are even better speakers out there but I'm happy with my choice. |

For starters I'd day loose the categories for different amps. Just keep the Britsh Style, American Style, etc.
Yes I was thinking the same thing. |

Oh, and those are some NICE cabs mcinku How did that 6L6 mod change the tone on the 5E3? Thanks for a compliment, I like this old retro style. How did 6L6 change the tone? I actually don't know. I never used it with 6V6. All I can say I love how it sounds with 6L6. ...but I should also say I installed the Vol/Tone Mod from Bruce and it fits me perfectly. You will find my clips in the 5E3 clip section. |

Damn those snobs.  I don't know what those guys at AmpGarage are saying but I can imagine. The same shit was happening with TW clones. For crying out loud, he is not selling a Dumble... it's a clone, not even the exact one!!!! everybody everywhere is doing it... and I'm not talking only amps here... I say Fu**k them all and bring back the amp, the market will decide if this is a good idea or not. Those guys can cry as much as they want. BRING IT BACK, BRING IT BACK !!!!!! |

You built the cabs yourself? Very good woodwork I had a lot of help from my friend. He is the wood guy, I was just a errand boy. |
