[@nickolasecker9596]

I have a hand wired 5e3 from a local builder and agree that it’s the most articulate amp I’ve ever tried. The way your pick attack determines how cleanly or distorted your notes and chords are really makes for an inspiring piece of gear when dialed in just before the amp distorts.

I was not aware of "jantelagen," so I googled it. The Swedish were on the money with that concept. I can think of one country in particular that would benefit from this concept.

[@stefftrim]

Thank you, Johan. I am thinking about building a 5E3 from the same British company as I did with my JTM45 1964 model. I remember when you played the Marshall JTM45, 1964 model, you said the exact same thing about picking. It was also responsive to the picking.

[@f.duranleau4416]

Hi Johan! Thanks for this fun and interesting video! I own a 5E3 replica made by Trinity Amps of Canada and it sounds great. It is equipped with a VRM knob ( Voltage Regulator Module) to bring the Mains voltage down, a bit like a Variac would do. My amp technician Richard Onslow told me that, to get the proper tone of the '50s Fender tweed amps, you got to run them on 110 Volts AC and not the current 120 Volts AC. That's because back then, in the '50s, the voltage in the USA was 110 Volts, not 120 Volts. The were designed when 110 Volts was the standard Mains voltage in the USA....So I use the VRM knob on my Trinity 5E3 amp to get the proper vintage '50s Mains voltage of 110 Volts.

Thanks! Sounds like an interesting amp!

[@Stratman78]

What's the output transformer on your '59 5Е3? I heard Fender started using the 125A1A output transformers in 1959 in the Harvard, Vibrolux, Deluxe & the Tremolux tweed amps. And it's the same 20 watt transformer that was used in the 6G3 Deluxe & the Blackface-Silverface Deluxe amps.

[@thorinbane]

Congrats on 100k

[@darwinsaye]

This is the one 4 input amp that is better if you don’t jumper the channels. If you plug into one channel you can make really cool changes to the gain structure with adjustments of the channel you are *not* plugged into. For instance if you are in channel 1 cranked and find it flubby, you turn up channel 2 to about two o’clock, and the signal will tighten up. Also the tone circuit is pre gain - as you turn up the tone control you will drive the gain harder. Probably the most interactive controls on any amp ever made.

[@JohanSegeborn]

I recognised that coupling too but this still was my favourite settings

[@simongjose]

I was just about to write the same thing (albeit less well) Just got my first 5e3 clone last week, the timing is perfect 👌 Mine was modded to have tubed reverb and flub capacitors switch

I've got a '93 Fender Blues Deluxe 40 watt, 12" celestion speaker and that's a great amp but even for the clarity of that amp, which is articulate and classy, glassy and heaven sent, I think I'd go for this '57 but I'd have to really put them side by side because the original Deluxe, which I've got, is just glass to dirt but articulate dirt. Then again, having thought about it I'm happy with what I've got really.

Sounds fantastic! ive had both the modern jensen P12Q and the modern P12N - I kept the P12Q .In my case the P12N had to much bass in a setup with a - "DRz Z ezg 50" which is kind of super reverb - and likely the modern P12N doesn't sound like Johans NOS P12N at all . . Johan waited for the right use /amp. Johans many videos really showed me how important the speaker is together with the( right) amp. hint: two or more of The 10" vintage celestion g10 50 s are really good together with a Fender super reverb amp-type.

[@GuyNarnarian]

Amp sounds amazing man. I was thinking about picking up a UA Woodrow, but I don't think it can do these sounds like the real amp. Simple circuit but the speaker and cabinet and everything else makes a big difference. I have Princeton that came stock with the PQ12, its a fantastic sounding amp and speaker, but doesn't break up as nicely as this unless its really cranked. Even then, its not the most pleasing distorted sound. The Woodrow sounds like it gets too farty, this really has THAT distorted sound that comes from the tweed circuit.

[@-Atmos1]

A review of the Supro Delegate would be interesting .

[@DanBlake3rd]

That original P12N sounds amazing. Great find, Sir. There is something in those old speakers. It’s hard to describe, but when you find a good one, you know it. The are lots of opinions on the best production speaker for a tweed deluxe. For me, not having an old vintage 12, the Jensen P12Q RI works pretty well in the meantime. Do I hear the opening Goldfinger lick?
