As someone who spent months building and customizing a 5E3 kit, this makes me sad. Why would you take such a classic circuit and then change every single thing about it? If you wanted 6L6es wouldn’t it make more sense to start with a Fender 6L6 design from the same era?
I do like the blue speaker – mine has that one too.
Love this content, Bradley. Top quality production too, big boi.
Do we know? Definitely that this amp came with 6l6s. Some people believe that they are interchangeable with a six v6. If the owner changed it can't blame the amp company
it sucks … essentially
I dont get the concept of this amp. $8K and your reverb and trem pots are buried in the back of the amp??? How long is that $500+ speaker going to last? lol
Looking forward to part 2 of this Lazy mess.
I built mine for a few hundred. It is EPIC sounding. I had to do a lot to get it into the sweet spot but $8K USD or AUD is nuts for any amp.
I would find out if this is the real deal before slating it too much, there are lots of fakes around, lazy j will happily verify it. They are hugely respected in the uk and have a massive waiting list to get one, if they were badly made they definitely wouldn’t have the rep they do over here.
I would gladly pay 8000aus for a 5e3 if it had a foam machine and blue strobing leds included! Great video Brad, looking forward for part 2 and for a peak inside those inclosures.
Hey Brad thanks for the insight. Just shows you that an amp can be pretty and sound ok but looking close can reveal all fur coat and no knickers . I know the that pedal show guys big up the lazy js and boogies …..it's like guys that know how to drive a car but don't know how to change a wheel . Great content .❤
is this try not to laugh challenge?
Guitarist Magazine gave this amp the Gold Guitarist Choice medal when they came out!!
Funny how they call themselves the Guitarists Bible!!?!!
I meant Deluxe reverb PT from Evatco
Hi Brad, I used a Hammond deluxe reverb in my 5E3, got it from EVATCO and suits their 5E3 chassis and also the Mojotone chassis
Well said!!!
It's only overpriced if they don't sell any. We can see they must be shifting some.
That is a lot of cabbage right there at current exchange rates.
Is that even really power scaling? Just looks like a common VVR. You’d think $8k would get you an actual London Power Scaling kit in it. I mean I could see maybe $1500 (USD) for the amp.
Wow, just a brief check online, these things are major pain in the ass to buy too. No wholesaler, no real retailers as such, just some random dudes from a shop in Sydney and another in Canberra who act as agents to take a deposit and put you in touch with the builder directly and they sort the rest out from there. Prices are based on whatever the UK to Aussie exchange rate is on the day. Import duties, shipping and taxes are added on top. So… no firm prices? No warranty I presume? F*** that. Imagine spending all that money and this pile of turd turns up. And then catches on fire.
Quite the rats nest going on there. Random wire snaked outside the chassis, and others snaked in the back. I guess a person doesn't get much for 8 grand these days….
