This is a basic 5e3 amp with a 1X12 jensen speaker. It has a mod to let you play at lower volumes. The mod is optional and removes the interaction between voume controls.

Sounds great for blues and classic rock. When you turn it up, nice breakup. Great clean on lower volumes.

I have been playing for over thirty years. It is a simple well made amp with great tweed sound. I would buy another if lost. The owner is a very fair person to deal with. Give one a try!

This amp is a 1x12 Combo with a 55 Jensen P-12q speaker.
Very similar to a 50s Fender Tweed Deluxe with two channels.
I primarily use it for blues. However it packs a big punch for mainstream rock.
I wouldn't want more than the three controls. Two volume and one tone.
I use the amp for primarily for recording but was able to take it to a gig recently. had plenty of stage volume. Even though it does not have a lot of controls or channel switching I find i can get any sound aout of this amp I need. A bonus is when you change the volume from the channel your not in it will add color to your tone.

I 50's Les Pauls with either p90s or pafs.
The amp is very quiet. The amp will give you a crystal clear tone with the volume down on the guitar and when driven it has a very smooth breakup.

I have had the amp a few months now and I use it regularly.
Don't foresee any problems with reliability.

This is a hand made unit by Tungsten Amplification
Adam Palow is very knowledgeable in his field.
I find only a great concern that I was happy with the amp.
Adam seems to want to please his clients

I have been playing for forty years and this amp is the first I really felt I can just do everything with. Record a low volumes with a great tone and play live with ample stage volume.
Overall I am very happy with this amp and would recommend it for any style.
