A fun and affordable tribute to a rare and historic Fender® amp. The Champion 600 is a 5-watt tube amplifier with a 6” speaker and 1950 “two-tone” looks. It`s great for practice or recording. The minimalist controls are all you need, a single volume knob and an on/off switch.
We added a higher-gain preamp circuit to let the overdriven tone exceed that of the original, and we added a choice of high- or low-gain inputs. Internal speaker jack enables use of a larger speaker cabinet.
Champion 600 History:
Fender Amps produced from 1948 to 1953 have a "TV front" shaped speaker/grill cloth area (the speaker cutout is rectangular with rounded corners and looks like an old fashioned TV). The cabinet`s wood panels were mated using "finger joined" wood, which gave a much stronger cabinet. Fender covered the cabinet in a tweed suitcase material that was popular at the time. This early tweed was light colored and had a vertical pattern. Later the pattern was changed to a diagonal style with more contrast between the light and dark fibers (the exception to the tweed rule is the 1949-1950 two tone leatherette Champion 600 amp). Control panels on the TV amps were located on the top rear, facing up (except the Champion), and had a chrome finish. The speaker grill was covered in brown mohair.
