There are many ways to tweak the tone or "voice" of a guitar tube amplifier. Amp designers and modders can alter the clean and overdrive tone by changing component values, adding components, removing components, adding gain stages or even adding complete circuits like negative feedback. This page also discusses how your amp's controls work which will help you get the most out of your guitar and amp. Knowing what a resonance control or cut control actually do to the guitar signal can make you a better player. You can tweak the voice early in the amp circuit for the greatest overall effect, especially on the overdrive tone, or you can tweak it late for minimal side effect. It's ideal to have early and late tone controls in an amplifier circuit to offer the most versatility.

I'm not trying to improve the 5E3 so much as I'm trying to make the amp more versatile. Some of the mods work well together too. When I need more headroom I'll flip the feedback switch on but this pairs well with the Lead Channel and High Gain mods.
