rmike	Re: Standby switch on 5E3 Like Jim, this is how I wired my 5E3 standby. I looked at a tweed bassman schematic. The only complaint is the sound of the filter cap discharging (or something!) as you flip to standby after playing. It produces a rather annoying buzzzzzzz that fades out after a few seconds. I remedy this by just turning it off after playing, effectively skipping the stby. You only need stby when powering up (as far as I knoww....) mike
