Product Information


A fun and affordable tribute to an historic Fender model!

The Fender Champion Amp is a 5W tube guitar amplifier with a 6-inch speaker and 1950 "two tone" cosmetics. This simple tribute to the cute and collectible 1949-53 era Fender guitar amplifier makes small-room sessions lots of fun! Originally intended as a student model, the Champion Amp (also known as the Champ) has also been employed by many professionals for its low output, easy-to-record capabilities. Fender has added a higher-gain preamp circuit to take the overdriven tone beyond that of the original, and a choice of High- or Low-gain inputs. An internal speaker output jack allows the use of a larger speaker cabinet.

The original Champion 600 had a low-gain preamp with 6SJ7 tube; the 12AX7 and associated tone circuitry lets the amp be driven harder for more overdrive.

5W tube power amplifier driving a 6-inch speaker provides perfect low volume for practice or recording.

Internal speaker can be disconnected, allowing amp to be used with a larger external speaker cabinet.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

Wonderful little amp

I don't usually write reveiws...for anything. So it shows just how much I love this little amp (Fender Champion 600 5W 1x6 Combo Amp). I was looking for a good practice amp, so I went to guitarcenter. I grabbed a Les Paul, plugged in, and man does it sing. The clean tone is very glassy and thick. Great for Jazz. Crank it up, and you get a beutiful bluesy crunch. The simplistic design, the leather exterior, and retro look sealed the deal for me. For 200$ you're getting a whole lotta amp. Though it's only 5 watts It's actually quite loud. I think it would be unreasonable to gig with it, but I record with the thing alot. It's well suited for everything-except maybe metal. I actually play in a Hardcore band, so I use a pedal and it sounds wonderful.

The Champ is the Amp!

When I saw this amp, I thought what can 5 watts and a 6 inch speaker do? I am impressed! The sound this amp produces is awesome! Just buy a Holy Grail Reverb Pedal to use with the amp and you will be ready to go.

Special Use Amp

OK, I've been using this for about 3 weeks now, mostly with a Gibson Les Paul. I also own a Fender Princeton Recording amp so I'm hooked on that all-tube overdrive sound. This little amp is only 5 watts with "low" and "high" gain inputs. It has a wonderful tone in either mode: instant full-on cranked tube amp sound. The issue for some is that you can really only use it at a low volume: assuming your guitar volume knobs at 10- you can only do about 6 on the amp volume before it gets muddy. It's perfect for using in an apartment bedroom, you won't need any pedals unless you favor metal. Price, tone and quality are top-notch, just don't expect too much in the volume department.

Cool Lil' Combo

I picked one of these up a week and a half ago and I am impressed with the tone of this little beauty. With a Strat, you get an amazing amount of bass for just a 6" speaker. Cranked, it sounds like the tone in ZZ Topp's "Blue Jean Blues". It is not a loud amp. But it makes up for it in crisp clear tone. Put a reverb or delay in front of it and it's like a trip to the fifties.Les Paul owners will have to back off on the guitar volume to avoid too much mud.Strat players who love blues will dig this amp.

Sweet little amp

I bought this amp the day after I bought the Crate V8 Palmino. I wanted a small tube amp after selling my big tube combo. This little amp has the sweetest tone if you want a clean to slightly overdriven sound. I think it really lets the tone of your guitar shine through because there is no tone circuit, just pure, sweet, glistening sound. I am playing a Schecter Blackjack with Seymour Duncans on it and running a Digitech RP250 through it. In short, while the Crate screams, this little honey sings. This amp is staying with me, the Crate is not.
