1959 Fender Champ (5F1)

SOLD

We are happy to offer you a very special deal: an original 1959 Champ in great condition, sounding like a true monster.

The amp appears to have been recovered with tweed many, many years ago (which explains our price). It is a world-class job (probably done by Fender), and you would probably never know if I didn't tell you.

The circuit is entirely original (except for the electrolytics, for safety reasons). Transformers are original, and chassis & volume pot are dated late 1959. The speaker is a Jensen Alnico from 1963, and it sounds wonderful.

Requires 110V for operation.

It has a very special sound, so vintage... super sweet & warm cleans at low volumes, and such a tone monster when cranked. True tone bliss with humbuckers.

Great chance to own a Layla amp. Awesome looks and sound. Definitely a killer tool for the recording musician, too.
