HBX-AC15 - To all at Frenzel Tube Amps. I just received my HBX-AC15
and it sounds beautiful. Thank you for your hard work! I can't believe it. Thanks, Jay W.
FM-5E3 - This amp is just wonderful! It sounds great with
my '52 reissue Tele, and it's a LOUD 25 watts. Cleans up nicely with the guitar volume. So many different great
tones can be coaxed out of it, depending on the settings. It's definitely the most versatile amp I've ever
owned. *Very* touch sensitive and lots of sweet, classic tones in there, and that's just with the 6L6s. Beautiful
cleans, and it can scream without any pedals (except the A/B/Y I made to use with it). In cathode bias mode, single
notes break up sooooo creamy and smooth. The bias point seems just perfect, nice gradual onset of distortion
in both fixed and cathode mode. I don't know how you do it. It's exactly what I'd hoped for. Great job, great
design. Can't wait till I can buy one of your other models from you! I will recommend you and your amps to anyone
who'll listen! A happy customer, Rex B.
FM- 5E3 - I use the FM5E3
with both my work for Richie Havens and for my own group Swamp Cabbage. With Richie I play a 1953 ES-175 with a single original
P-90. The accurate clarity of the Frenzel perfectly offsets the inherit potential muddiness of a rhythm position P-90 allowing
the guitar to tastefully find a unique place in the mix of Richie's acoustic presentation. The guitar's naturally rich lows
are maintained while the boom is gone. The low notes are gloriously clear much like the electric guitar's role in old Motown
mixes. I find myself only using the M option because it provides the extra needed highs but the F option is wonderful for
twangy natured guitars. My favorite speaker complement is on Celestion Vintage 30 12". My road survival strategy is
to plug the Frenzel into house provided backline amps which are usually Fender 65 Deluxe re-issues. With Swamp Cabbage I
use old Guild Starfires and M-75's and crank the Frenzel to the zone of nasty yet articulate trailer trash." "Swamp Cabbage" www.walterparks.com
FM-5E3SDP - "this is just to let
you know that I am very happy and satisfied with your amp: it sound exactly the way a good old tube amp is supposed
to. Way better than all the reissue around. " Alberto Z. Novara, Italy
FM-5E3
- This note regards my FM 5E3 Deluxe Plus which I received just about one month ago. First... WOW!!! I thought that this amp
sounded GREAT when it first arrived, but I was mistaken. In fact, my acquaintances (i.e. employees) at Guitar Center (about
as jaded and "brand conscious" a group as you're ever likely to find), who had asked me to bring the amp around for them to
see and hear before I even received it (I had described it to them after I had ordered it) were absolutely FLOORED!As I said,
I thought this thing sounded GREAT when it first arrived, but we're now about one month down the road, and it CONTINUES TO
IMPROVE as things get more and more "broken in". I am more pleased with my "new" tone every day!!I just can't say enough,
and I tell EVERYONE who is willing to listen to me gloat. ;-) Thanks again for a wonderful product and an exceptional buying
/ support experience! Jeff F.
FM-25TPR
- Words cannot describe what his amp sounds like! It has exceeded everyone of my expectations. Thanks for taking the time
to answer all my questions so I was able to get what I wanted, and the way I wanted it. I can't tell you how much I appreciate
it, Oh and did I say it sounds amazing? Thanks Again, Larry A.
BluTone 50 -"First amp I have used in years that gives me incredible tone and sustain with power to spare.
50 watts that feels like 100. Looks cool too..... " Harvey {Snake} Mandel
BluTone 50 “…All I can say Jim is thank you x 1,000,000! The reason why I started playing
guitar was for this sound. It is a true work of genius and I feel very proud to be the owner of such an amazing amp…” Andy
Joskowski - Bracing ed - Leeds, England
BluTone 50 - “The BluTone 50, is simply put, pure tone in it's rawest form! A real and true expression of what
I play! I'll never use any other amp!. I guess my favorite piece of gear is my Frenzel Amp.It's serial #0005LDI. Specially
made for me from Trevor Frenzel . Fortunately, I can change the tubes for different sounds. 6L6's for a thinner but beefy
top and 6550's for an awesome full low end ZZ Top sound. Of course, all of that is pushed through a 2x12 Tone
Tubby loaded Frenzel cabinet. Larry Ireland - The SUNKATS - Irving,
TX
FM-5E3 - "I own
a Sound City 50+ which is an amazing amplifier, its just to loud. I have played a Carr Rambler, VHT Pitbull, and Bruno Underground
30, and planned on buying the Sewell Texiplex 25. I am proud to be playing the Frenzel FM - 5E3 Deluxe Plus. it is exactly
the tone I have been looking for. After 36 years of playing guitar, I am not trying to sound like anyone other than myself.
Its been a long journey, but Frenzel put me exactly where I want to be. Thanks. " Buddy - Fort Worth, Texas
FM-5E1 - "The FM - 5E1 Champ Plus arrived yesterday and I must say that I am a
very happy man; the amp sounds superb. Over the past 10 years I have only used vintage and/or hand made tube amps and yours
is as good if not better than any of them. The pick attack is incredible and it produces wonderful overtones; I make and play
my own custom built electrics using the Novax fan fretted system, the guitars have accurate intonation and string balance
and produce chiming type sounds when using chords; your amp complements my guitars perfectly. " George B. - Queensland, Australia -
FM - 5E3 - Jim, I received my FM-5E3 today- what a great amp. Awesome cleans, and a very organic distortion, not
to mention how well it's built. The only downside is that I was planning on building a Marshall style cabinet for it,
but I don't think I can bring myself to cover up such a beautiful chassis! So, I'm back to square one on the cabinet
design. Anyhow, it was well worth the wait and I'm sure you'll be getting orders from me in the future. Oh, and by the
way, in this world of Super Wal-Marts and mass produced garbage, it's awesome to come across a grassroots, family style business
like Frenzel. Seriously, the music industry needs more business like yours. Regards, Eric M. Berwyn, PA
FM-5E3
- Hello MR Frenzel:Thank you for the amp that you built for me . It is all I expected and more. It sounds great.Thanks
again. Michael K.
FM-5E3SD - Jim: Great packing job, not a wrinkle on the inner box, even UPS couldn't hurt this
one! The amp does sound beautiful : Far more clean headroom than I anticipated, far less "dark" than tweed amps I've heard,
great range of tones with amazing bass response(both tonally and power-wise), and beautiful harmonics/overtones in the NNFB
mode. With an overdrive pedal(TS-808 type), yes, it does get great classic to heavy rock sounds. Very satisfied! Andrew V.
JF-5E1 - Hi Jim, now the amp is here and I'm
verry happy with it ! It's a beautiful little case so to say, I really like its small size and its great sound. Best
regards to Texas. Marco P. Karlsruhe, Germany
HBX-WC30 -
I got my new WC30 a few days ago. Just wanted to let you know
that everytime I turn this amp on, I am surprised. Depending on the pre/master setting, on the CLEAN inputs, I
can go from bell-like clarity to a thick crunch overdrive with tons of attack and sustain. The variety of sounds from
the CLEAN input alone is worth the price. I am literally blown away by the BOOST inputs. I can't believe
the sustain and raw power of this channel. With the pre and master set to less than 1/3 of the knobs travel, the amp
starts breathing fire. Most amps loose attack when the preamp volume is increased to higher distortion levels but this
amp has the attack of a sledge hammer at all levels with amazing tone and sustain. I own many amps and have played most of
the "big name" amps; I have not heard an amp yet that can stand toe to toe with the amp, at any price. I love this amp, thanks.
Jimmy W.
HBX-WC30 Received
amp head in March 2007. Killer. The best. Get this one. 30 watts of sheer tone. Two channels that can do any style of music.
I hooked up an ABY footswitch to it to go between channels or to use both. It screams in any language. I will be dumping some
of my other amps because this is the one. It also works perfectly with my powered reverb unit (and other effects) in the effects
loop circuit. This is the model with the two EL34's in it. Can't say enough about his amp. You have to get one and try it
yourself. Gary J.
FM-5E3 - Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know how much I am enjoying
my FRENZEL FM - 5E3 "Deluxe Plus". I have had this love affair with my old Fender Princeton since the early 70's, but there's
a new girl in town. The FM - 5E3 is so flexible. I have been using it for recording and am able to get
such a variety of tones. I used to use a lot of pedals to get the drive tones that I wanted but now just stick a clean boost
(Klon) in front and wail. The effects loop is also great. Never really used one until now. I placed a tube tape echo and a
Fender tube reverb in the loop and am loving the clarity. Great piece of equipment. I'm spreading the word. Mark W.
JF-6G2 - Hey Jim… I got the amp Thursday and it was in perfect condition.
Looks great and sounds even better I will use it
out this Tuesday. Thanks again Phil B.
FM-5E1BF - I got
the amp yesterday. I don’t have my cabinet done yet so I ran it trough the speaker in my
Music Man amp. It was all I hoped for, I am really glad I got the 6v6 option, there is nothing like pushing a power tube,
the dynamics with this amp are awesome. I then decided to hook it up as
a pre-amp to my Music Man 112 RD 50 (IMHO one of the tastiest clean amps around), and was thrust into
blues heaven. This rig is now my “Pride and Joy”. Thanks much, Tom S.
FM-5E1SS - I'm running some tremolo and reverb
through the amp to a 1x12 cabinet with my Gibson Les Paul Special, and all I can say is... SWEET! Brings out the true tone
of my guitar, which is what an amp should do. Great build quality, great deal! Keep up the good
work! Geoffrey W.
