(You'll see me playing guitar with this amp)

This is a custom handmade, hand-wired tube combo amplifier inspired by the classic Fender ’57 Deluxe Tweed.
It delivers the unmistakable tweed character with fast touch response, thick and warm midrange, and natural compression and overdrive as the volume is pushed. The result is an exceptionally expressive, dynamic, and musical amp.

Reason for Sale

This amplifier is only being sold because I recently purchased a Two-Rock Classic Reverb and am downsizing my collection.
It is not being sold due to any functional issues and has been properly maintained.

Tube & Circuit Overview

The amp features a tube-rectified power section, contributing to its organic feel, natural sag, and smooth dynamic response.

• Power tubes: 6V6S × 2
• Rectifier tube: × 1
• Preamp tubes: Ruby 12AX7 × 2

While rooted in the familiar 5E3-style tonal foundation, this slightly unique configuration offers a wide tonal range—from articulate cleans to rich, harmonically complex crunch.

Speaker & Cabinet

A 12-inch Eminence speaker is installed, and the open-back cabinet design provides an airy response with wide, three-dimensional sound projection and excellent room fill.
