AMP-KIT: Tweed Pro 5E5-A Style WITHOUT CABINET
The Tweed Pro 5E5-A with its huge 15" Spekaer is a late-mid 1950s amp and featured the single-rectifier power supply exactly like the 5E7 Bandmaster and the 5F4 Super - This amp has a much bolder tone compared to the later higher power models and fits wonderful for big and warm clean guitar tones or fat growl when pushed a bit. This 5E5-A type amp got popular by famous west-coast guitar players. By the way, this is also one of the best amps we've ever heard for Blues-Harmonica "Harp" playing. No kidding, no feedback issues! No effects required, just a good High-Z mic and if you have your guts together then the tone of William Clark or Rod Piazza can be easily achieved.
