RCE G5 preset

Verified · 92/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.

The G5 is a small tube practice amp from Radio Communications Equipment & Engineering of Montreal. Two inputs are mixed and feed one half of a 6SL7, then a single 1M volume control, then the second 6SL7 half, which drives one cathode-biased 6V6 in single-ended Class A. The output transformer feeds a 6-inch speaker. There is no tone control and no negative feedback, and a 5Y3 rectifier supplies the power.

Schematic-derived preset files for 16 Fractal and Line 6 modelers: Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, Axe-Fx III, FM3, FM9, and the full Helix family (Floor, LT, Rack, HX Stomp, HX Stomp XL, Native).

Gridleak extracts amp parameters from original circuit schematics using AI vision — component values, gain staging, tone stack topology, tube types — then generates native preset files for every supported modeler. Every extraction is scored 0–100 and the score is published.
