Winfield 5E3 Tweed Deluxe reproduction 2026
$1300 plus shipping.
New build May 23, 2026. Pine cabinet and tweed cloth covered. Uses contemporary Power transformer and Output transformer from Hammond organ (the best for a Tweed Deluxe, IMHO). The OT was originally a lay down version which I converted to a stand up. I painted it Gold because I thought it was cool in Gold. The speaker is an original cone Jensen P12RH, from 1948.The "H" indicates that the speaker is a P12R but with a stronger magnet. The original cone is in excellent shape and it sounds like it should. Modifications are tweaking the cathode capacitor on Channel one to eliminate the notorious flubby bass, and including a Bright cap on channel two. No Disappointments!
