5e3 schematic Q.
Hi,  
 
I'm about to build a 5e3...it'll be my firsttry at building an amp.  
I would go for the kit from Bruce but since i'm in the Netherlands by the time it's here with import taxes and shipment it'll be a small fortune.  
What i wanted to ask, is the schematic of the 5e3 at the Fender Amp field guide site correct?  
Or should some small things be different.  
I Did see a difference between that schematic and Bruce's schematic that's why i'm asking.  
 
Cheers and thanks,  
Willem

My Tweedy schem is based on a version of my Soulkicker amp, a 5E3 derivative... and has minor changes to help keep the noise down a little, less hum and make the amp a little more reliable using easily obtained parts.

Bruce what mods do you use to reduce the hum and how much difference does it make?
