Fender 5e3 Deluxe

[supro66]

I built my second tube amp the First was a Supro 6420 Thunderbolt
this one a Fender 5e3 deluxe
I am going to build my second Supro should I use carbon resistors does it matter

Nice work!   I quit using Carbon because more often than not I was taking one or more out because I'd get noise issues, so for a few cents more I just do metal film for everything.

Merry Xmas amp!


Second the motion on metal films. On an amp like that, what do you have, 21 resistors? What's the cost delta, like $5, right?

It just happened I had this Green Pleather laying around from a boat I recovered the side walls so why not use it and I had one green knob so I got one more from Doug
