1960 Fender Champ
For your consideration, Garrett Park Guitars presents this 1960 Fender Champ
Fender first launched the Champ guitar amplifier in 1948. The Champ was known for having the lowest power output and the simplest circuitry among all Fender tube amplifiers. It featured a single 6V6 power tube, and its power stage is typically single-ended and class A. With just five watts, its straightforward yet rich circuit made the Champ a popular choice in recording studios.
By 1955 Fender started putting its amps in the "Narrow Panel" tweed cabinet with a plastic oxblood color grill cloth,[and by this time the Champ was officially named the Champ (model 5E1). Through 1957, Champs only had a six-inch speaker, but the 1958 model 5F1 featured an 8". The 5E1[and 5F1 circuits used a 12AX7 dual triode in the preamplifier to provide two stages of voltage amplification, and a single 6V6GT power tube to produce about 5 watts.
The list of recordings the Champ was used on is endless but most notably Eric Clapton and Duane Allman used Champs on "Layla".
This Champ from 1960 is in very nice condition and it sounds amazing too. It is all original including the speaker and cord, we even have the original 6V6 power tube (included in a box). The tweed is in very good condition
