1972 50W Marshall. It sounded horrible. To bright and not enough grind. Many, many moons later I plugged into and it sounded fantastic. What changed you ask?...

No, I haven't measured the B+. This amp several hundred hours on it with the 5AR4. I'm just not sure if running the 5AR4 is going to bother the PT or run...

SFVR calls for 5UR4 but has 5AR4
I bought the this 79 SFVR used and it already had the BF mod. It was loaded with an 5AR4 instead of the 5UR4.

Yes, I used finger joints for the cabinet. I built a micro adjustable finger joint jig for the table saw. The joints turned out perfect. It was almost a shame...

Here is my finished 5E3
This is a Mission Amps 5E3 kit. I built the amp several years ago. At the time I had no wood working tools but was determined to build the cabinet myself....

How many yards?
I read somewhere a long time ago how much material it took to cover the 5E3 cabinet. Anyone know?

I belive it is the tone stack that is largely responsible for the Marshall sound. Not the only variable, but I'd say it is the main one.

Excellent work Jaydawg. Thanks for the pic's. Very helpful. Is that the PC 4212 dovetail jig you're using? I was thinking about making a finger joint jig...
