1958 Tweed Deluxe 5C3... Typo?

I realize it's a fair ways off to start nitpicking... but pick I shall!

 

When I saw the LaGrange was based on a Tweed Deluxe, I started doing some poking around as to how the LaGrange might differ from the Tweed Deluxe in this patch. While researching, I realized that the notes seem to refer to something that doesn't exist.  The 5C3 circuit was used until sometime in 1954, and in 1958 the circuit being used was the 5E3.

 

While there are some that would argue, "C'mon... it's a tweed deluxe... C, E, K, Z, it's going to be pretty much the same", it sounds like there's a noticeable difference between them - more low end, additional gain stage - which is why the 5E3 is so coveted.
