MGR/Anonymous « Fender Champion 30 »
Published on 07/14/02 at 15:00I paid $216 at musiciansfriend.com
The sound is excellent for the price. I was very happy with my purchase.
I was pleased with the amp until about the third day I used it. The amp just wouldn't turn on. I went on the internet and did some research on the amp. I found that many other people were experiencing the same problems as well, the amp would just flat out stop working. From what I read, apparently only the amps made in 2002 were experiencing this problem. There was even one instance where an individual had the same problem not once but twice after exchanging the first one. I called up fender to ask them if there was a bad batch of champion 30s and their only response was, "not that I know of." The customer service rep was not helpful at all.
The quality is good for it's price.
Do not buy this amp!!!! Avoid at all costs, or at least wait until all of the bad amps are taken out of the bunch.
