I finally got around to completing the How the 5E3 Deluxe Amp Works webpage. With the number of 5E3 kits being sold I thought it might help some newbies understand what the amp is doing. I try to detail how the amp functions and how changing component values will affect the amp's voice.
If you're interested take a look and as always suggestions and corrections are welcome.

Really great stuff on your site Rob. You've put a lot of effort in. Well done.
Re: How the 5E3 Deluxe Amp Works
Showing a proper ground on the power cord connection makes sense for safety. Moving the fuse to the hot side of the switch, instead of on the original neutral, would also make sense for the same reason.
If it says "Vintage" on it, -it isn't.

Yes, I agree and I'll get around to editing the Fender schematic to reflect that one of these days.jjman wrote:Showing a proper ground on the power cord connection makes sense for safety.
