"CAN'T STOP PLAYING IT!"

Feature:
It has everything the original had and more.

Quality:
It's a Fender and I expect to keep it for many years.

Value:
There's a few small tube amps out there now. Some people might prefer a particular sound over this one, but this is the coolest, smallest, and it's a Fender.

Desirability:
I bought it after quite a bit of research.

Sound:
It's a reissue or tribute of a vintage product and does that vintage sound perfectly. Although it is not hand wired, it has hotter tubes to allow it to be overdriven more. My other amps and effects are gathering dust.

Ease of Use:
You can get an amazing variety of sounds from it by varying inputs, volume knobs on the amp and guitar and your guitars tone knob(s). Beginners would do well to learn how to control their tone with these rather than relying on pedals, buttons, and knobs. Learn to create your tone with your fingers. You can always recognize the greats regardless of what they are playing.

Support:
I've owned several Fender products and never needed support. That's the way I like it!

Overall:
If you want true vintage tube tone without spending an enormous amount of cash, get one.

Quality:

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
A fun and affordable tribute to a rare and historic Fender amp. The new Champion 600 is a 5-watt tube amp with a 6 in. speaker and 1950 “two-tone” looks. Fender added a higher-gain preamp circuit to let the overdriven tone exceed that of the original, and they also added a choice of high- or low-gain inputs. Internal speaker jack enables use of a larger speaker cabinet.

Features:
Tube Preamp and Tube Power Amp (1 x 12AX7 tube; 1 x 6V6 tube)

5 watts into a 6 in. Special Design speaker

High-gain and low-gain inputs; hotter preamp circuit than the 1950 original for warm natural overdrive when turned up

Single volume control

External speaker output

Brown and blonde vinyl covering; vintage-correct 1950 "two-tone" cosmetics

Leather strap handle

Red jewel pilot light
