StewMac Build Your Own '59 Tweed 15W Amp Kit

Description: The dirty little devil that shaped guitar history With mysteriously fat saturated tone, this little monster makes it easy to achieve seismic distortion. This amp's 5E3 circuit is an enigma. Why do the controls on the channel you're NOT using make your tone so great? Some say it's caused by defects in the circuit design, others dive deep into the nuances of the engineering ... but whether it was a happy accident or pure genius, this amp is one of the finest examples of vintage tone available anywhere, at any price. StewMac has lovingly recreated this timeless amplifier in our '59 Tweed 15W Amp Kit. This is one of our Icon Kits: loving reproductions of vintage classics. If this project sounds hard, don't worry.
