Yes I am sitting here looking at mine and it says: “Vintage V22 Infinium.” I got it new a couple of months ago.

I believe the answer has to do with their tube management electronics in the newer Infinium, which are supposed to allow longer tube life, and the yellow pilot light, which had been blue on the older non-Infinium model.

Hi RP,
There’s a guy who shows up at a jam I play each summer with a Bugera. It sounds really good—to my ears it sounds like some classic British amps. I’d say it’s a good choice. Back when I lived out in your neck of the woods, I bought a Fender pro jr from Ch’ville music. Still have it—all-tube, 15 watt. It’s basic; no reverb, no EQ. It reminded me of my first amp (a tweed deluxe). Peace, Jimmy

Okay Martin! I can see this all coming😊🎸. Your report on the modifications will be soon and I will be ordering my parts.😊. I guess I might as well get ahead of the program and get the stuff coming. Did you say you are getting a speaker other than the Swamp Thang? I think I will go ahead and order the tubes and wait until after your report for the speaker.

NOOOOO I'm modding the V5 ONLY !!!
Here's what I ordered.... JAN Phillips AT7 and Tung-Sol EL84. Some have also swapped the speaker for an Emnence 820H which apparently really opens it up.

The Eminence speaker arrived today !! Tubes are scheduled for Thursday. I'm going to wait and make all the changes at one time because the tube change will be easier with the old speaker out.

Well the tubes showed up today, so I did the upgrade today. It's now a rockin' little amp with a nice crunch to it....However it's not the sound I was hoping for....that V22 still reigns high as my best sounding amp. The V22 has a nice clean sound that just can't be beat. The V5 will make a nice practice amp though.

After going round and round with all of your great suggestions, in the end I just couldn't leave the Fender family and ordered a Blues Jr. NOS....
