Fender 5E5-A Pro (1958)
Vintage
These late 50s Fender Tweed Pros are heralded for their big, broad voice with bold low end and punchy highs.
Following the original 5E5 Pro (known as a big brother to the 5E3), the later fixed-bias 5E5-A/B Pro is bigger and tighter sounding with a more musical sweep from lower volume cleans to more refined gained up tones when the amp is cooking. The 15" speaker shifts the frequency response a bit to give things a bit of a kick in the upper mid range as well.This particular example comes from one of our most trusted customers who has been collecting premium vintage amplifiers for many years. The circuit remains original including all electrolytic and filter caps. The original tweed covering is in very good shape with natural aging befitting of a 65+ year old amp. While the original Jensen P15N speaker is included in the sale, it has been pulled out in favor of a modern Warehouse G15A. The tube chart is worn and faded in areas but definitely original to the cabinet. Interior chassis stamp 'HG' tells us that it was completed in July of 1958. Ideal for players and collectors alike, this 1958 Tweed Pro would add some serious vibe and tone to your stable.
