Mission Amps

Bruce Collins of Mission Amps, coordinated a project to build a tweed Deluxe 5E3 style guitar amp. The goal of the project was to build high quality, great-sounding clones of the immensely popular narrow panel Fender tweed Deluxe 5E3 circuit at a significant savings over boutique prices. This model is ideally suited for both the beginner and advanced builder due to its relative ease of construction and killer tone.

He received about 50 responses from people interested in joining the project, many for whom, including myself, this would be their first homebrew amp. Since he is a custom amp builder and repairman with a relationship with parts suppliers, he offered to gather the chassis, transformers, and all other electronic parts in the form of a kit. Project members were on their own as to cabinet and speaker options. He also supplied a high quality schematic, color-coded layout and help via email as needed.
