EMPIRETONE 5F1 CLONE IN 5E3 CASE WITH 8 AND 1O INCH SPEAKERS TRADES for guitar

AJSAJS Frets: 40
edited September 2023 in Amps £
I bought this 5f1 clone off  MAW4NEU in April this year.  I have never had a 5F1 before and I liked the sound and simplicity so much I had a 12 watt 5 e3 clone built so I could gig with it.

Here is the original description

'Its a beautiful Hand Wired Valve Guitar Amplifier based on the Classic 57 Fender Champ. It's recently been serviced by "AlnicoMagnet" in Rochdale so it is in excellent running order . . . Its almost silent in operation with close to zero hum or background noise, as such, it has made for an excellent recording Amplifier over my time of ownership.

It has a Mercury Magnetic Transformer and an extra wide cab to accommodate the 8" x 8 ohm Jensen Speaker and the 10" x 8 ohm Fender Speaker. The Current Valves are sound and the whole Amp is fabricated from quality components.

As per any 5F1 Fender Champ Clone there is just the one knob . . . on / off + Volume . . Simple ! !  . . . The Jensen and the Fender Ceramic Speakers deliver a beautiful sweet tone and its been an absolute joy to own.'

And a link to the original listing because the pictures are much better than mine.

    I can 100% vouch for the Empiretone Champ, its a fantastic Amp and it worked really well for me at home and Band Practice, even with our noisy drummer . . I can also vouch 100% for AJS too, as I've known him on and off for years, what a top bloke :-)
    Id just like to point out that, despite all the video and DNA evidence, it genuinely wasn't me, your Honour  !
