Amp Demo 1981 Fender Silverface Champ Part 2
Part 2
I re-recorded the demo with better sound and with 2 guitars are different settings.
First guitar is a Les Paul and then an SC Relics T-Style, firstly quite clean and then turned up a bit.
Sharing the same circuit as the blackface era amplifiers, the exact same circuit, this amplifier can still be found today relatively cheaply and is worth buying on sight.
It has a single 6V6GT, a single ECC83/12AX7 and a 5Y3GT rectifier and a small 8" speaker. Not the greatest speaker it has to be said but it works fine and the amplifier sounds full. It can get ragged quickly at volume with a humbucker equipped guitar and the speaker can start ripping and sounding quite bad if pushed really hard but at lower volumes it's fine.
Input 1 is un-attenuated whereas Input 2 has a fixed pad on it to reduce the input level and best suits a humbucker guitar.
It's not a quiet amplifier really and puts out some volume in my room. Really when using a Les Paul, anything past 7 just results in a farty crackling with the 8" speaker. If I took the signal into an external cabinet, that wouldn't be a problem.
It's not a high gain amp and simple in design with a single ECC83/12AX7A pre-amp valve and single ended 6V6GT. I switch on a JHS Spring Tank reverb pedal during the video for some space around the notes.
