All user reviews for the Fender Champ "Silverface" [1968-1982]

Everything has been said, we regret the front panel receiving grillcloth squirming in all directions and I quickly replaced by a plywood but it is only aesthetic.
I gather here, my 3 silverface Champ, small collection, a 1969, a 1973 and a 1976.

UTILIZATION

More simply, it is difficult!

SOUNDS

As my field 1966, see my opinion, these vintage fender amps sound really is a pleasure to turn and let his fingers through the neck of a guitar. The single coils are wonders and double bottom cruncher with gusto. On my 4 field, both have original hp, the 66 and 73, the other 2 are equipped with hp Jensen C8R, I have not tested the Weber Jensen are perfect but what they say.

OVERALL OPINION

I love all the 4, they have all been modified to be completely silent and long life.
The desire to share my impressions and my info is on my site under construction: phleroyer.e-monsite.com, go check it out, it does not eat bread and you can learn a few things there.

All Tube Amp w 12
a volume and a bass that's all acute
not stand by, is aluminum and it works.

UTILIZATION

There are sound. corrections are not particularly effective. it seems that the volume has already pushed the amp 2 thoroughly.

SOUNDS

Sound: of madness in its purest form. it tears the fire, a great presence, an attack on folie.Bien there is not much a serious cause of HP 8 inches but with a good guitar it explodes ILICO.
there is a simple sound, this indefinable thing that we take pleasure in listening. I tried it without effect with a tele custom and it's hard to get over it. incredible. This material is exactly the opposite of what it is building (Indeed, modeling, etc. ..) and I think that sometimes the simplest things are the best.

OVERALL OPINION

I'm going back tomorrow morning or in the store I found and I'll buy it.

All Tube Amp (3) A class type
Power 6 WTTS announcement but only on paper because in real life is another lemonade.
bin for the connection is a very simple amp with 2 input jack but no headphone output unfortunately.
Rglages 3, a volume that serves as a gain, treble and bass.Comme I said it's a great amp but super simple config in its quality.
I put 7 in the absence of headphones ...

UTILIZATION

Config extra simple rule is sound basic clean and the rest follows by itself, it mounts the volume to cruncher lamps and are down to clean.
Its level is the beauty of its tube, it is impossible dcrire if we have never heard before but once we return not essay to the transistors it is so good.
I bought 1 month ago so I have no manual but I think it is necessary so it's easy to get a superb sound easily.
It is transported around easily and it sounds ... what more?
I put 8 because it is very portable and not very heavy, a good solid manufacturing made in USA.

SOUNDS

I play blues and some rock too hardos so it suits me really well, I play with 3 / 4 of the time I'm home, it is nanmoins an overdrive pedal if you want a little cruncher volume since the gain depends on the volume.
Its a very hot and a little fat but it depends on the AC lamps also two and a groove tube fender that n is no origin.
Cot stuff I play with a strat Paul Beusher I change to the team with lace sensor red and blue and a small middle clapton way booster, and my favorite is my team of 335 epiphone gibson classic 57 'to the bridge that I let go so it's worth all the others.
For my overdrive pedals belcat is a simple but great quality and cheap level of very good workmanship.
With all this I spend the big super crictallin its a little greasy but so bon.c is a really good amp that MRIT to plug a good scratch. but my fender squier tele with vintage reissue it goes really well on it ... Not a scratch besion a 2000 euros not eh ...
I put 10 because the sound is amazing for an amp of this size, it dominates my Marshall Valvestate 100 watts in terms of quality by far! vineau not on the power of course.

OVERALL OPINION

I have the last one month and a half almost and I love this amp so it's a bad extra.Le cot is its price because it is really very expensive for its power (theorik) of 6w.J ' had tried a fender blues junior and pro junior but it has nothing to do ... the sound of the original tube is truly the best according moi.Je am not at all a fan of shiny new product so it's also my ptetre default, but to judge the quality of the vintage will never Exceeds by a nine stuff ... At least in ske j've seen until now.
Report quality took a bit expensive but the quality really pays more than the power, I do not regret at all because it's really an amp genius who deserves to pay a little more cher.Je got it for 400 euros so it's a bit expensive but puts the argus a 450 and mine is in great condition.
I put 10 because I'm really a fan (in case you would not not notice )
I hope you will aid you have an opinion ..

Fender all-tube watts field 6 for its silver face silver front panel, a lamp to the amp, one for prampli lamp, a lamp rectifier, they are brand new Electro Harmonix.

Two inputs, one volume, one rglage severe acute rglage one, a power switch and basta.
Simpler you die.

I changed the HP original Fender for a Jensen MOD 20 watts. I benefit from this change to make it an internal toilet and it is buffered in March 1972 and there is the name of a guy can be described in the editor.
Re-shift to an HP Jensen alnico. No photo is the ultimate in HP for this amp. I urge the references.

UTILIZATION

No manual is simple, one branch is allowed to heat lamps, and go.

The clean sound is warm and dynamic trs, above 5 volume with double started itches, you have to climb a little more with simple.

By mounting the volume of the guitar was a clear playing soft, and presto, you activate the right hand, a dlicieusement crunch. At the former.

Going up the volume too much, it is limited by the 8-inch hp original (a fender on mine), it saturates too tt on strings and night the clarity and precision of sound.
I will get a 20 watt Jensen to solve this problem.
I found that with low zero, the better hp cash and the sound is much better.

Note that it supports trs well the effects of all sauces, such as saturated modlisations. Out what the big sound despite the size, and always with a reasonable noise level.

Be careful, though acute and mdiums are divine, do not expect deep bass with an 8 inch. Against by the rest of the spectrum that's all OK. We should try with a 10 hp or 12 inches, but it takes 4 ohms to avoid losing in potato.

My rating is for the 7-hp fender.

I mount the HP Jensen, I ride my note 9, I have a lot more bass, and finally the hp is the power, so strongly recommended modification of this amp.

SOUNDS

For jazz and blues, this amp is a rgal is as limited use, but that he does like no other in this size.

Used with strato, Leduc, such as happiness.

We rule the amp once and for all, and it does the rest with the volume and tone of the guitar.

A low volume I do cruncher with a tube screamer if I do not want to play hard.

Still only 8 to hp.

I ride with the Jensen 10.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a month to replace a 1000 super performer but too powerful, and then the lamp is so much better ...

Caution 6 watt tear, DGIG the volume is quite impressive, there is plenty to be done by the neighbors hair. I think sincrement have as much or more than 20 db watt transistor. I can not imagine a vintage 12-inch ...

If I find another, I take in a stro must be even more terrible.

Recommended for what it has Designed t: jazz and blues.
