The Fender 5E3 tweed Deluxe is considered by many the perfect recording amp. It offers 12 watts from two 6V6 output tubes through a 12” Jensen speaker in a finger jointed pine cab. This example features original tweed covering which has naturally ambered. The sound is authentic golden era Fender tweed tone.
