Here's an absolutely meticulously hand wired classic Fender 5D3 Tweed circuit clone built into a standard 5E3 chassis that is ready to be mounted in your own compatible cabinet. The layout has been slightly modified to ensure dead quiet operation. This has a tighter low end (due to the lower value coupling caps) and more gritty-in-a-good-way overdrive (due to the the paraphase phase inverter).
The 5D3 traditionally has only three inputs where the 5E3 has four. The implementation is a modification to get the 5D3's standard inputs sounds as well as the variation. Normal Channel Input 1 offers no grid-stopper. Normal Channel Input 2 offers an effect 32 kΩ grid stopper resistance at the input. The Bright Channel offers your traditional 5E3 "HI / LO" inputs.

Important - This amplifier is not designed to used as a stand alone "head" and should be mounted in a cabinet of some sort to enclose the internal components. Potentially lethal voltages inside.
Chassis is standard 5E3 size. Mounting holes are 13.5" on center. Will fit Mojotone or Weber Cabinets no problem.
