A boutique amp of the rarest kind in Europe: the MISSION CHICAGO 50,
50-watt version of the Bluesharp amp hand-built in Denver, Colorado, by Bruce Collins. 10“ and 12” speakers (Cannabis Rex and 1028K from Eminence), switch between fixed bias and cathode bias (minus approx. 20W), deep switch for even more bass, 3-way switch for adjustment to different microphone types.
I have mounted completely hidden microphones (sennheiser 906e and Superlux) in the amp! Behind the front cover but directly in front of the speakers are a Superlux and a Sennheiser microphone, which are wired to an XLR socket on the back. Plug & Play!!
A padded handmade cover is also included!
The sound is incredible, whether at full - or relatively low volume. Warm, rough, with a bass growl that massages the soles of your feet when you stand next to it. I still have 4 amps (which is why I'm selling one of my best ones now) and I have to say that it's the only one that can keep up with the sound of the Sonny Jr. amp (also a handmade American amp)! Relatively moderate weight!
No dents, burn marks, cracks, stains, or glass edges. Non-smoking household.
Fully functional, built and imported in 2012.
No exchanges. Outrageous price inquiries or obviously non-serious inquiries will not be answered. No returns.
