base on a 5E3 circuit type, Fender Deluxe 59 head version

here is the inside

built on high quality vintage type components

included few mods

  1. triode/penthode switching (hal/full power)
  2. analog effect loop without any component added in original circuit
  3. diode protection for rectifier tube
  4. diodes/tube rectifier option, to enjoy the vintage lag of tube rectifier or more modern sounding with diodes
  5. Negative feedback switch with option no cathode cap option (3 positions, orginal, NFB, no cap)
  6. Upgraded rectifier tube from 5Y3 to GZ34 (5Y3 still accepted) to run power tube a better bias

all mod (outside 6) are still keeping original circuit option so it is possible to run the amp as originaly designed
