1958 Fender Tweed Narrow Panel Deluxe Amp 5E3 with 5F6 tube chart Tweed
No Sales Tax For Customers Outside Of California.
Yet another entry in our tweed collection, this 1958 Fender Tweed Deluxe 5E3 in all-original, untouched condition.
It is getting tough to find an example like this one, an amp with no repairs, changes or mods with clean tweed etc. This one is a museum piece for sure! It is fully functional and sounds amazing.
We powered it up on our variac, which is a good idea with an old, original amp like this. I would recommend a filter cap replacement if your intent is to use the amp regularly and/or if you don't have a variac on hand to bring the amp up slowly. I can do the work for the next owner prior to shipment, including adding a grounded power cable if desired. I would house the new caps in the old covers to keep the vintage look, and the original parts would go with the amp. Until a buyer is ready to go, we're just going to leave the amp as it is.
