Tweed Champ
The Tweed Champ has been the most used 5 watt amp for studio recordings by various artist such as Eric Clapton, Joe Perry and Jimmy Page. The Champ is single ended and class A, designed with a simple circuit it will crank up nicely at bedroom volumes and will sound great also with a boost pedal for extra break up.
Hand Wired to perfection and a wiring layout you will appreciate. Our very own branded Achillies power capacitors for ultimate tone and stability have been adapted to the build. Strictly requested (knot free) Radiata pine when building our cabinets, which gives that perfect balance we need to offer you the finest amplifiers on the market. Constructed with Traditional Dovetail Joinery and wrapped with authentic Fender Tweed cloth covering or select our range of tolex covering options. We have gone to great lengths to apply the tweed cloth that the pattern will flow in the same direction anywhere you look at the cabinet, as did the originals. To finish the cabinet we have applied 2 heavy coats of Nitrocellulose lacquer to protect your amplifier for years to come.
