All user reviews for the Fender Champion 110

Solid state amp is what you would expect...not great but OK for home or office practice use. The amp is a cheap solid state amp that will allow a user to play at low volumes or use the headphone jack to play silently without interruption.

The amp is really loud as well. being that it is solid state the amps tend to be able to hit louder volumes naturally. This thing is rated at 75 watts which is a bit much if you ask me. Being i think the tone is terrible as it is and having 75 watts of that is a bit too much to handle.

You have a master volume, a gain and another volume for the gain. Then you have the standard treble, middle, and bass, with an added reverb control knob. You also have a speaker output if you want to run in into another 1x12, 2x12, or 4x12 speaker cabinet.

SOUNDS

You will get a decent tone for a solid state from this amp. If you are used to tube amps then this will not be your cup of tea. You will find yourself getting real irritated at the solid state tone that will eventually lead you to turning the amp off.

Any old guitar will do with this amp. Again tone is not the answer with this amp...practice is the answer. If you have a junk guitar or even a decent Gibson Les Paul or Fender Stratocaster you will find that it doesn't matter too much. The tone is cheap, thin, and metallic. It will not be warm and thick or any other description you would give a sweet thick tube amp distortion.

OVERALL OPINION

Since these amps have been discontinued I have no idea what the going used rate is for these amps. Since it is solid state I can't imagine it being over $250 for a used amp.

I would recommend this amp to a Fender amp lover who needs a cheap practice amp that will get an ok clean tone and lousy distortion tone. You won't break the bank buying one of these amps either. They are cheaply made and cheaply priced.

30 watt transistor. It is more than enough to play in the apartment or home, and I play sometimes with a battery m'enttedant perfectly. However, with other instruments, must be pushed ...

There's the usual buttons, with 2 channels. It can connect a footswitch, headphones and

Nothing special .... what

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, there's no need to read the manual (I even know if y 'is one)

SOUNDS

It is a sound fender (one suspects ...), clean sounds are good and the distortion is sufficient for a lot of musical styles, but it will never be enough for the metal.
I play mainly blues, and sometimes a little rock, and I am always satisfied until the report's price.

OVERALL OPINION

I like this amp, it is worth its price.

It's been 5 years that I served and never a problem.

Clearly, c ttrès well.

A lil amp transistor that hard though ... 30W, HP 10 '(I think), 1 clean channel, a channel with footswitch Overd. Headphone jack, External speaker (8 ohms), a spring reverb. very simple and effective. Fragile connectors (Jacks)

UTILIZATION

Small amp easy to use, good clear sound and warm without too much problem. Disto nice. 2-page manual but it does serve is nothing (plug play, say like Bill Gates, except that here it's true)

SOUNDS

This amp is perfect for what I play, it is clear that this is not a stage amp, although I have already used as such and he did well. Certainly not you come to a sound pressure of a 100W amp but I like not push the amps too ... The right balance so that it sounds, there have presence and c good. The amp tends to saturate somewhat on the low frequencies if he sends signal bcp, but I use this defect in DUB. The reverb is nice and fast rule. The distortion is versatile, more like a lead (I use only very rarely, I prefer my effects). I would say that matter volume is not so bad, considering I used to repeat and hear the guitar tlm despite the HP 10 'that moves not bcp wind. In short, nice amp, trasheur discouraged, even when relatively robust (that's 5 years as I dragged it into a okaz + and I just resolder the connectors, apart from that, 0 now.)

OVERALL OPINION

I redeemed immediately (amp longer manufactured), actually nah, I'm keeping well and I spinal another if I had money like that happen to 30W and 100W in my room at the studio, HAPPINESS, but Jah not raining tickets 500 euros ...

QUALITY Price: HT okaz has 800 balls !!!!!!!!!!

Transistor 30watts, 2 channels light / saturated, headphone jack, External speaker, footswitch. HP 10 "labeled Fender (a Jensen?). The equipment is good but it makes better since.
Compact but quite heavy for size. It's tough.

UTILIZATION

Plug and play ... It's simple. It is not a super sharp gas factory.
He used to play guitar, not to spend hours looking for a sound.

SOUNDS

The equalization application has to be well worked, it is quite effective.

The clean sounds are very good for this type of amp, even at low volume. My Laney 15W tube is less rich (it changes when you push).
The overdrive channel is less successful, a little cold, difficult to get a bluesy sound or a sharp crunch in the Keith Richards. It's modern. But it depends on taste.
The reverb is bof, it lacks thickness. Correct anyway without abuse (not the surf music).
All guitars sound fine with this amp, but a good strat clean, it does.
In short, the amp gain to be used for volume "room" in the clear. With a good overdrive pedal, it's all good.
My rating: 8 for the clear, 4 for the saturation. But with a good clear sound, it always comes out.

OVERALL OPINION

I was being tested a few weeks. The clean channel I was pleasantly surprised.
If it is to play loudly in groups, there are better (a little light). For the diversity of sounds, there are better (the integrated DSP). For the price / pleasure, there's more (Behringer GM110!). But hey, that Fender is well constructed, it is honest. Too bad the look a little "modern".
I think that there is opportunity, then less than 150 euros, the plan is good and he will lose more value. But today, it takes with other products more fun, maybe more gadget.

PS: The notes compare what is comparable on the market.

Amp 25 W
clear, saturated
reverb
trebble setting, middle and bass
1 output footswitch
1 headphone
1 output to 12 ohm speaker

The Champion 110 is no longer manufactured by Fender!

UTILIZATION

The Champion 110 is very easy to use. There is no need to leave St. Cyr to find the used.

Very good for personal use. It can take the shock in rehearsal but it will take longer pushed.

This is not an amp for metal. It is great for blues and rock base. For my part, I use it for any style.

It's been years since I have it, I do not part with it for the world.

SOUNDS

Excellent clear sound! When played with a Start, it gives all its energy.

For my part, I have one I played with a PRS, the sound is very plain but lacks safe to rock nag at saturation.

OVERALL OPINION

Its typical FENDER !!!!! but nothing prevents its use with a different guitar! a friend with the Try Lespaul, the sound was super nice.

It is a very good amp, not too expensive in time (though!). It's been 10 years since I have and I do not regret it.

25W transistor
the rest was already said

UTILIZATION

Here, no need for manual or spend hours searching for THE sound
it works right away

SOUNDS

Well, I must say that I have a stat of 73
the clean sound is the sound Fender Start, simply.
I do not push too the drive because it does not fit my style but it sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had ten years, I read a magazine that said: this is the best amp room!
I went to buy it, I do not regret ever, ten years after

I read it was a fair bit repeating with a battery, etc. ..
WRONG!
during an internship, I had the opportunity to rehearse with:

TWO batteries, full horn section, bass, percussion
all at the same time of course ...

I assure you that you heard me!

Then, transistor amplifier fender, mine is a 25 watt
input, footswitch, headphones, speaker output 8homs
3 Band Equalizer
master volume, gain and everything that goes with a built-in reverb

UTILIZATION

Amp could not be more simple, it should not have invented the 2-liter bottle to use it. OCCAZ purchased from a friend, he had no user manual, and I am yet to use it is you say.

SOUNDS

That amp was built for the Stratocaster and the Telecaster guitar is a very polyvalente.c is amp is polyvalent.Il are ways to play blues, rock, I even tried to play metallica, and AC passes rather not mal.par cons, it's better now not to push too far the gain on pain of being left with a nice breath ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for the past two months, and I do not think I vai change before long ... I love the sound it provides and for its tiny size of this dynamic amp um!
I have an uncle who works in a music store, and I must say I already try a lot of amp. this is not one of the best I've used, but it's a good amp .
in my view, the price / quality ratio is very good, since I acquired it for 100euros
I do it again this election eyes closed

after a few months of use, I just changed: I removed the hp and I coupled with a 2 * 12 orange amps, it sounds harsh! I play a jackson kelly pro on it, which I equipped with a gibson T500, bin now when I play clean, I saturate the preamp input of the beast, so it sounds roots, but not great, so in disto, ca 2 times saturated, which gives not great, but hey, it works with them, there is still correct with a stratum.

Combo 100% transistor being part of a must for working at home.
connectivity is reduced but adapted for use with this particular very proper headphone.
25W SMR on a HP performance limits its correct operation of the notch 1 volume knob.
Without digital effects (and better) with a 3-band equalizer and a reverb properly efficient delay line.

Attention to it: it resonates at certain frequencies generated by the hp: take the precaution of cushioning with plasticine or patafix to reduce the nuisance.

UTILIZATION

Configuration childish manual useless, tonal palette Fenderienne easily adjustable.

SOUNDS

I walk between smooth jazz, jazz and blues with a half box replica ES335 rewired in the rules of art and features replicas of 57 Classics (and yes, I finally removed my Dimarzio Virtual PAFs for sumptuous uen question of balance).

Once worked for Food (diodes, capas), the op amp's changed (replaced by TL072 OPA2134), qq and other trinkets on the signal path, the amp sounds bcp nobler, much less pinching at the top, sounding less dirty and bcp several fluid.

In these circumstances, it becomes very versatile and I'm curious to fce the challenger Fender "intubated"!

OVERALL OPINION

Less than 1 month of use and it's fine like that!

After passing through a Cube 60, a Laney LC15R and have tested a Super Champ XD, it seems best suited of all to my tastes, which proves that the value (to be assigned) does not wait the number of brouzoufs!

Marriage is therefore the one that suits me the best among all tests, and 80 € hand, there is no shadow of a comment (I had the components used to upgrade in stock ...).

Q / P supersonic after modifications!

And as the Fender customer service responds to 1 / 4 of hair, I got the pattern from the U.S. to 48 for any subsequent interventions.

I would do if this election? In your opinion ...

The Fender Champion 110 is a solid-state combo amplifier with one 10 inch speaker. The speaker is described as a "special edition" and not much else is stated about it.

The amp has two channels, clean and distortion with shared eq controls consisting of bass, mid, treble and a global reverb control.

Also found on the front panel are a guitar input jack, an input jack for a footswitch, an 8 ohm external speaker output (which disengages the Fender's internal speaker, and a headphone out jack.



UTILIZATION

This amp is easy to use and dial in good tones with. The manual is well written.

SOUNDS

The circuit in this 25 watt solid state amp is designed to have clipping similar to a tube amp. Of course it doesn't actually sound or feel like a tube amp, but for what it is, it's really not a bad amp for beginners or for anyone who wants a decent practice amp to play quietly at home.

The eq is well thought out and is home to a few nice tones. The clean channel is pretty good (hey, it's a Fender so it had better sound good!) Full and chimey, but not overly bright. It lets the character of the guitar shine through.

The distortion can be dialed in to sound scooped with the mid control backed off to 0, or brighter and more cutting with the treble and mid up a bit. The low end is usable until it reaches about 3-4:00, where it begins sounding flubby.

Fender calls the Mid control their "tone-shaping" control, and I agree that it can give the amp a modern scooped metal tone, or a nice thick lead tone, all the way to a very honky and overly middy tone.

It's nice that Fender included onboard reverb in this amp, but the quality is really lacking. It's nothing like the reverb in their higher grade tube amps, not that I would expect it to be for this price, but it sounds pretty bad. It's not terrible as long as you use it VERY sparingly. Give it too much and it's way to prominent. It sounds cheap when overused. Subtlety is key here!


OVERALL OPINION

My amp dates back to '92 or '93 and has since began to fall apart. Most of the jacks are scratchy and loose, and the input jack hardly makes a connection anymore. The master volume on the clean channel quit working, so the amp is very loud despite the setting. This makes it unusable for quiet at-home playing, which sucks as that's all it's really good for anyway.

Something has happened to the way the amp's eq controls affect the tone also, because now the treble control is completely worthless and I have to keep it at zero or the distortion tone sounds like razor blades and bees. It's a buzzy, harsh mess! The input jack problem is very common with this amp from what I have heard and read online from other users.

It's a cheaply made amp and it's inexpensive, so I didn't expect it to last forever, but I take very good care of my gear and I was hoping it wouldn't completely fall apart.

I guess if you can find one used for a very low price, and it's in good condition then it would be worth buying, otherwise, buy a Peavey or even a Line 6 practice amp. Or just get yourself a nice low watt tube amp for practice like a Baron Snott Watt.
