Tweed Deluxe 5E3 builders statement

The Tweed Deluxe 5E3 is a great amplifier for small venues or quiet drummers. It always sound a little dirty but it delivers the full and complete guitar sound without the mid cut many later amplifiers had. Great amp for Blues and mild Blues Rock.

I have to say this is one of my all time favorite amps. It is kind of a one trick pony but it is a pony I love very much. As a big Neil Young fan this on is a must have for me. Equipped with a JENSEN C12N and some 6L6 power tubes…….the crazy horse gets to run wild ;-).
