I've built a 5e3 Deluxe recently, but I've encountered some gremlins :
99% of the time it works perfectly and sounds good, however, sometimes is creates a whistling noise and sometimes it continuously cuts out... sounds almost like bad cable loosing contact but it is not.
I only noticed it after hours of using it.
The volume knobs don't have an effect on it, so I suspect the issue lies somewhere after the volume attenuation.
My guess is an oscillation problem, maybe coupled with arching?
You can rarely hear it, and it makes it difficult to pin point the location of the problem.
Does it ring any bells to you?
