Description
A vintage 1974 Silverface Fender Champ 1x8 tube combo amp. These hand-wired little amps are great if you're looking for a boutique-quality practice or recording amp on a budget. The small size and low power lets you get some serious overdrive tones without the serious volume levels. The replaced speaker and output tranformer are original Fender OEM parts that both date to 1977, so they were most likely replaced in 1977 by a Fender service center. Both parts are identical to what would have been originally used in 1974. This amp has been cleaned and serviced. It is fully functional and sounds great. Includes original docs.
