I bought this for my office, but even a champ seems too loud in this environment (!). This amp deserves to be played more…and loudly. This amazing 5F1 champ was custom built in Asheville, NC by John Schuske of The Amp Shop. Only the best components were used, including an Alnico Voice of Rock (VOR) V8A-25 speaker (Jensen sticker attached to complete the look) and vintage GE tubes. The cabinet is solid pine covered in lacquered tweed. The tone is rich with barking break up, and it's incredibly quiet when idling. The person I bought it from put it head-to-head with an early-60's Fender Champ, and he ended up selling the Fender and kept this one! If you're looking for that iconic, vintage tweed Champ tone, look no further. I'll also throw in a JJ 5Y3 as a backup, which realistically you'll never need.
$675 shipped (PPff) or trade toward Allen LF or Chihuahua or a Kendrick Solo7 (will entertain other trades).
