All user reviews for the Fender Champ "Blackface" [1964-1967]

Any amp lamp, correct 5Y3, a 12AX7 preamp and a 6V6 in power.
2 inputs, a normal and attenuated.
3 knobs: 1 volume, 1 treble and 1 bass
1 Hp 8 inch into 4 ohms
The cabinet is solid pine which is for me the main difference with the silverface.

UTILIZATION

As they say in these cases, no need for manual although mine arrived with all historical documents and the cover as it lights up, it leaves a little heat, adjusting the volume, treble and serious depending on the guitar and sing it!

SOUNDS

There is pure happiness, vintage Fender sound good lens makes you vibrate and returns in the figure that you play, the good and the bad, he lets nothing pass. SG is a wonder but I would prefer a Telecaster. Note that it agrees very well my boss GT10, all-digital!

OVERALL OPINION

To be honest, I bought a 1966 blackface because it is my birth year, I wanted to make me happy and I do not regret it, but you pay dearly for the next vintage, rare. I have three other field, in 1969, one from 1973 and one from 1976. Aside from the massive cabinet making for 66, 69 and mixed for plywood chipboard + for 73 and 76, these amps once slightly modified, is worth!
I am creating a site where you can find pictures, comments and mods very simple and honnéreuses to make an amp completely silent and will last for years!
