This is *the* definitive 5E3 demo. Great job on "the one amp to rule them all"!!
The PERFECT tutorial for a 5E3 amp.
Thank you for doing this without effects! It is so nice to hear the amp.
My gosh man, you’re playing is so beautiful and chaotic all at once. Great video! Love my 5e3 and this perfectly covers all the little quirks and nuances that make it so great.
I too, am a member of the Tweed Brotherhood. I don't have a 5E3, but I have the 5E9. That's the Tremolux. It does exactly the same things that yours is doing, with the addition of the early style tremolo. There's no opto coupler, it changes the bias of the inverter, and it's vastly different from the later trems. It's more like riding the volume knob rather than the "on-off" kind of sound you get with black and silver face models.
Leo Fender should have gotten the Nobel Prize for amp design. Every one of those things, from the Champ, up to the Bassman or the twin, are spectacular.
The only Tweeds that I don't instantly love are the ones that need work, and when that's done, they join the family as members in good standing. They are among some of the finest products that this country has ever produced. I can't imagine how anybody could be a guitar player and not want one.
Thanks for posting, I've known about all of the Tweed voodoo for many moons, but it was fun watching you go through the moves with yours. Your enthusiasm made this fun to watch, and besides, you're a hell of a player.
You got lotsa heart brother!
You are one passionate young guitarslinger! Rock on! What a crazy good demo. I thought I knew it all about this beauty of a circuit. More tweaking baby. Thank you heaps for your great playing and sharing your experience with the 5E3!
The precision which with you move across the fretboard never ceases to amaze. Also, this amp is glorious, I want one so bad now.
Jay, this video is fantastic and covers everything you need to know about the 5E3. I had a Fender CS Tweed Deluxe head years ago, loved it, but sold it like an idiot. I picked up a brand new combo last month and just put an Alnico Blue in it. I have literally owned over 100 amps in my time. Everyone should try this amp at least once in their career to feel the truth of tube powered tone. This is the benchmark amp for me! Thanks again for the video, great job.
This video is way cool! You added a lot of understanding and enthusiasm for an amp I would have not thought so capable. Thanks!
Considering a 5E3 amp and this truly is the full in-depth look at the interactions of the volumes, channels , and tone. This answered all my questions. Thank you for doing what you do.
Hope it helps you unlock some extra magic :)
Excellent demo of the possibilities of the tweed deluxe, Thanks for posting.
Building a 5e3 circuit now. I've been slowly buying parts and just waiting on transformer set now then I'll be able to crank it! Can't wait. This video makes me feel even more better about my choice.
Stellar review as usual, @JayLeonardJ. Love your enthusiasm and killer chops! This video is so important for people interested in the Tweed Deluxe. There is a much older YT video out there where @RecProAudio just shows the knobs/panel and talks about the interactivity of the knobs and the ability to get a much broader range of clean tones. Had I not seen that, I would have stupidly sold my Tweed Deluxe due to falsely believing that it can't do any good cleans. But thanks to that video (and this one!), since then it has been total bliss and lifelong learning with with this amp. Thanks for the game changing tips!
Glad you enjoyed the vid! Happy tweaking!
Thanks so much for the demo. I got a 5e3 clone several years ago and I thought I had a grasp of how to use it, that is until I saw your video. Your video opened up so many more avenues to explore.
Glad you got something out of the vid... Happy exploring!
Great demo! I’m a simple dude, I want to understand what my gear is doing enough to get the tones I want. Whether that be a knob that is well labeled, or having this new found knowledge of a jumped 5E3, I’m happy when I can dial in what’s in my mind, but also, get surprised when I’m looking for something new.
Absolutely the best explanation on how to use this circuit and how it works YT video of all time!!!!
Love your plying and passion
This helped me a million fold!!!
Really appreciate it!
J Leonard Jay.. thank you for you fantastic playing and teachings!
I have a Lil’ Dawg 5e3 amp and this really helped me more than anything else! I immediately put this into practice… literally the guys in the band were loving my tones last week, because I much more knew what I was doing with it.. and I have been more confident and even more pleased with my awesome sound. Thank you!
Sooo glad the tips helped!! Keep it loud and rock on :)
Very educational. Thanks Jay. Love your playing
Wow - I have a 5E3 that I took on a trade and I had no idea what this wonderful little amp is capable of. You show so much love in all the sound combinations. I'm going to go try to get some of that myself right now!! Awesome video Jay!
Happy tweaking!
Really enjoyed your review. I just built a 5E3 15W kit and I'm learning the different tones. Your video gave me a good start.
Fabulous !!! Thank you for this video, your playing is absolutely fantastic, and you get all tones you want only with your guitar, the amp… and your fingers, while many of us can reach a few of these tones with a lot of pedals. Great ! 🤩
Thanks! Really appreciate it :)
Well done! Among the best if not the best 5E3 demo and tutorial.
Wow, thanks! Really appreciate it :)
That was wonderful. The definitive guide to the 5E3 with an amazing test pilot!
Thanks a ton!
You should show an example of how to use an A/B box to channel switch....a cool trick with these
This is great!
I have a original 5e3 and sounds fantastic.
This demo shows all right.
Thx bro
This is a very high-value video. You probably sold me on a ‘57 custom deluxe (currently have a champ). Simply the best video on this amp available. Your knowledge and competence with this equipment to a very high standard.
I really appreciate it!!! Enjoy your Deluxe and rock on!!
Love the circuit interactions of the '50s Tweed amplifiers, ditto for the '50s Gibson Les Paul wiring, so many small nuances' it takes a bit of time to learn what the amp/guitar combo are capable of.
Great demo, lots of great information and you kept it interesting.
Also, thank you for your minimalistic signal chain (Guitar, Instrument Cable, Amplifier), very much appreciated that you kept is simple and concise.
Perfect demo, Amazing talent !
Just what I needed to pull the trigger on one 👋👍
Thank you
Finally! An overview of the 5E3 the demonstrates why it is legendary. I don’t own one, and might never, but totally respect it as a creative tool. For gigging, however, I need more immediate access to several sonic flavours literally « on tap »😊 Jay, thanks as usual for the passionate and creative content you produce-also, for the diplomatic reminder that we all need to explore our gear to their full capabilities, as wonderful surprises await🙏
Such a great demo of this amp Jay. I really feel this circuit is at the top of the list of the most beautiful sounding amps ever created.
Thanks so much, great work on this amp!!!
@@JayLeonardJ dude where can u lead me to your video where you lock these 2 stars on your guitar neck i camt find it anymore..... i did it omce id like to do it again ....ps6
probably the best amp demo i've ever seen and great tasteful playing man, very nice!
Thanks!
BEST VIDEO EVER about this issue ! GREAT !
Hardly the 1 trick pony some think it is. Great demo showcasing how many sounds it has. I built my own many years ago. Truly an inspiration.
Really appreciate it :)
Very enjoyable, informative video and excellent and appropriate guitar playing! Deluxe 5E3 ? Hard to say the greatest amp design ever but certainly nothing better.
This video is such a generous gift. Thank you!!
Thanks!
Nicely done! I've owned & gigged with an original '58 5E3 since 1979. Lemme clarify - the normal channel was originally intended for hiZ microphones and used a 12AY7 instead of a 12AX7 for the input stage. To my ear the AY7 offers a bit more "breath" in the 5E3's tone
Have owned one for almost a month now. It’s totally amazing, the interactive controls, tons of dynamics and a bottom end like I’ve never heard before. It’s the last amp I’ll ever need.
Superb playing!
Greatest demo ever.
5e3 is my new amp for some few days .. such beautiful tones and versatility ❤
Great demo.. well done!
Thanks!
Great review and super great tones!!!
Loved that! Great demonstration of the strangeness of tweed amp setting
Thanks :)
Fantastic amp, and fantastic playing!
Some great detail in using an old school amp there buddy, some fab playing too.. Very few show how to really use such an amp to its best effect & ability between guitar & amp and you've nailed it! I have a LazyJ20 and love how the amp is an instrument in itself, This method also works wonderfully with a Fender Blues Junior too to get those output valves cookin with glorious tone at your fingertips. These type of amps also take pedals in the front end perfectly too. Once you've mastered its amazing capabilities, It really is THE REAL DEAL TONE MONSTER !
Excellent video. Thanks for all your time and hard work!
My pleasure!
So great! 10000 amps in one. I'm inspired, must get a 5e3, great thing master.
Absolutely remarkable playing…and a totally illuminating tutorial. Wow. There is demand to directly A/B this with a UA Woodrow ‘55 pedal.
Killer demo. Bustin all the styles. I'm going for one based on my 5watt Champ spoiling me for life.
Holy Smokes Jay, best 5e3 deep dive ever❤️👍🏼
Thanks!
This was amazing, thank you!
Those amps are a tone machine all done without pedals. The sound is like a living thing with a mind of it`s own. Thanks for the info.
You are genius!! This is poetry! So beautifu - pure passion, pure power, pure love! Thank you so much for your curiosity and love! Great expirience
Wow, thank you so much :)
This is the best tutorial for using this awesome tone monster. Thanks.
Thanks!!!
Fantastic video! I've been playing a 5E3 (Clark Beaufort) since 2006 and I knew the controls were interactive, but I never really messed around with them much. I just found a sound I liked and it was set it and forget it (especially in the last couple years a s a clean pedal platform split to a Vox AC15HW60).. Now I'm eager to mess around more with it. Really great video.
Great video! This is legit the best amp review and demo video that I've seen so far. The "how too" and instructional aspects of how to get certain tones is so helpful. a observation and suggestion - if you branded your channel explicitly as an "amp channel" and started doing regular amp reviews (classic amps and new ones), you'd be hitting a key nitch that people are hungry for. I think you'd quickly grow this into one of the biggest music channels. just thought. Anyhow, great work man.
What a really interesting comment. I never thought about that and you might be on to something. Really appreciate it.
@@JayLeonardJ I'd have to agree with the op 100%. This vid was my first exposure to your channel. Wow !! I'm blown away by your knowledge of this little amp. Very impressive.. [Subscribed ! 🍻] your playing really showcased what this amp is capable of. Truly great ! Love the enthusiasm. Your vibe is contagious.. I would totally love to hear your input on other classic amp designs.
Best 5E3 tutorial I've seen so far. No wonder Niel Young went so deep into this amp to figure out his fave presets. An amazing blend of clean, grit and dirt in a fairly complex blending of what seems like should be 3 simple controls!
Thanks so much! Yeah, really surprising how many secrets are hidden in those 3 knobs :)
Sidenote: Which song of his should I listen to study his tone?
Thanks man! I learned a lot... I'm going to go play with my vintage 5E3 and my Victoria version and see the differences.
Thanks so much for this IN DEPTH vid on the Deluxe 5E3!! I'm so excited to get mine soon.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@JayLeonardJwhat pre amp tubes are you running in yours??
Excellent demo, I learned a lot!
great great great demo. wow nice work. only eclipsed by your stellar and exciting playing. rock on man
I really appreciate it, thanks!
Superb demo. Thank you for posting.
My pleasure!
Bit late to the party Jay, the best description of the interaction on the 5e3 I've seen. Thank you
Really appreciate it: I wanted to make this vid for YEARS!
So good, Jay!!
Thanks so much man! Always great to hear from you :)
excellent demo of this amp. Thanx man.
Just clicked buy on the Fender. Been loving my lil Champ but wanted more headroom... Looking forward to using these tips. Love how buckers push a tweed...
Thanks for your Video ! Great Stuff Man! Loved your chops too! Can't wait for my Lazy J - J20 to Arrive ! Should be a Blast to Play !
I hear those amps rock! Enjoy :)
This guy obviously understands the electrical/electronic functioning of the amp, and can talk about it with enthusiasm. Emblematic? Antithesis? And he has a good vocabulary, and knows how to use it. Not a single "awesome", "like", "literally", or any of the other junk language most people use. Wow, so he's articulate, too! Then there's the fact that he can play. Kudos!
It really means a lot to me. Thanks for enjoying the video :)
This is an amazing video. 10/10 perfection. Subscribed 😅
thanks!!!
This post really opens up getting those classic 5e3 sounds. Would give it 2 x 👍, if I could! Will have re-watch this one again, and again.
Thanks! Hope it helps :)
After watching your video I went out and bought a custom 5E3 , it came with a vintage 30 speaker. it is great I am loving it but I connected my old blue alnico to it and WOW!! you could just imagine the result of that. A1. Thanks.
Those blues have such a cool character to them. Great speakers!
This is my next gear purchase and I cant wait.
Oops was a bit impatient & didn't wait till the end. Apologies. Sounds fantastic!
Awesome demo Jay, I really enjoyed all the settings! You did a great job of explaining the different combinations and interactions that are possible as well as demoing the quirkiness of certain settings.
Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to play through a 5E3 circuit yet so I can't speak from personal experience. I can imagine that it would be frustrating for someone if they didn't know about these tricks and weren't much into tinkering with different settings. Regardless, I don't think it would bother me because I love tweaking sounds and getting nitty gritty with my gear.
I once owned a Pignose G60VR all tube amp. My friend helped me mod it a bit and it sounded really great. However, there was one really weird thing about the way the treble knob worked. The most trebly setting possible was actually achieved by turning the treble knob all the way down! Then if you started turning it up, it would get super dark and gradually brighter and brighter up till the highest setting. However, even that wasn't as trebly as it on zero.
I love a bright sound so I usually just left it on zero but people would always be confused by that if they came over to jam or played through that amp.
Killer Demo JLJ !!
A local builder here in Melbourne (Barry Marie @ Barwatt) will be putting one of these together for me. This video is invaluable and has me super excited to have a play with it. Might even goose it with the Univox Unidrive I built for myself :). Thank you so much!
No prob! Happy tweaking :)
Thanks, this is excellent! Thought I knew all the quirks of my 5e3 but I was wrong!
Happy to help! Nothing is better than finding new sounds in familiar gear :)
Spectacular demo Jay. It took me a good year to discover all of that and you still showed me a couple nuances I hadn’t found. The dimed normal volume when on the bright channel was HUGE.
Yeah, I love that trick! Glad I could help :)
So much I didn’t know about my amp! Thank you! I have some playing around to do tomorrow!
Enjoy!
Great demo. I’m open to new ideas, so if it piece of gear has something different to offer, than what I’m accustom to, I consider that a good thing
Considering a 5e3.. thx for the demo and lesson. Excellent job 🤙🏽
Happy to help!
Great job. I finally understand the 5E3! thanks now i have to get one.
Glad I could help!
Simple circuits are always the most dynamic. Man, I don’t know how your channel isn’t huge yet!
Wow...pretty amazing ... thanks for that!
I think your channel would explode if you created a good lesson series, your playing is superb.
Great job, you covered it all except the "Throwing it off a cliff" test. You hammered that amp good and proper and it did'nt flinch once! I played a similar heavy handed style once through an expensive super modern "Built like a tank" combo at a recording session and the thing began to melt and fill the air with smoke, the funny thing is the owner was'nt upset at all as she opened a cabinet and pulled out an old "Champ" which had been retired cos it was too basic and old fashioned according to the company that sold her the combo with bells and whistles, stereo chorus, complex eq, in/out , 2x10 speakers but it did'nt like dynamics( more like a hifi) so if you played the same way all the time softly it was happy and sounded good but as soon as you changed the attack it would groan and make some really weird sci-fi sounds like it was possesed and eventually it just became a carcass for spare bits. The Champ just keeps getting better the more you use it. Thanks again for the viddy
The 5E3 is an awesome amp!
However I would like to mention something useful that is almost always overlooked...
You can use an A/B box to switch between the inputs for clean and dirty channels
Set one volume at 3 or 4 and the other up around 9.
You can choose whether to turn the Normal or Bright up or down depending on how it sounds with your guitar.
Additionally you can use lo input on one channel and hi I put on the other.
This can be a very useful setup for the 5E3 and literally NOBODY ever mentions or demos it.
Give it a try.
You're welcome!
🤘
Great demo
Awesome!
You had me in the intro. Dear me! What tones!
Thanks :)
Dude your tone is SICK!!!!!
Thanks :)
Damn. That was excellent. I've got a 5E3. Guess I know what I'll be doing after work!
Hope you unlock some fun tones out of it :)
Best video I’ve seen on these amps
Thanks so much, hoped it helped :)
Dude! Awesome! Thank you.
Your welcome!
Jay…..one of my favorite guitarists!
Thanks so much!
nice demo and playing
I own a Fender 57 Custom Deluxe and just WOW. Amazing review.
Rock on!
Thanks for your excellent demonstration of this versatile amp 👍🙂👌 Now I just need to decide whether to build this or the 5E9 Tremolux 🤔😋 Subscribed!
Oooh, those Tremolux amps do indeed seems amazing!
@@JayLeonardJ Yes, they sure do! 🙂👍
To answer your question as a tube amp designer, I love a deluxe and all of the interactive controls. you can better dial in a tone then, use your guitar controls and an overdrive to get everywhere you want to be.
Great job! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I have gladly viewed this multiple times now trying to learn about my Woodrow believe it or not.
That was really damn good. Thank you
Thanks!
