Fender Bandmaster 5E7 preset

Close · 75/100 confidence. Most values readable. Minor gaps filled by inference from similar circuits.

The Fender Bandmaster 5E7 is a mid-tweed-era 3×10 combo running 26 watts through two 6L6GC output tubes with a 5U4 tube rectifier. Its three-speaker configuration gave it a distinctive spread and projection compared to single-speaker amps of the era. The 5E7 circuit shares much of its preamp DNA with other tweed Fenders of the period: warm, harmonically complex breakup with a soft, spongy feel courtesy of the tube rectifier. Country and rockabilly players found its natural compression and bloom especially musical.
