I just picked up a Champ 25 SE the new tube amp from Fender
and I love the sound. Got it for $329.00 and I am so happy with
it. Nice quiet tube sound, great upgrade from the Champ 12.

there was one up at Ted's in Manchester last time I was up there. It looked like a hybrid - transistor preamp with tube power amp. I'd say it was mighty nicely constructed. There were spring retainer "hats" for the power tubes. It sounded MUCH better than a Champ12. Please Pat, tell us more! | |||||

The Champ 25se normal channel features the standard compliment of

shift button for that ultra clean sound. The drive channel features
Gain, Volume, and seperate EQ consisting of Contour, Treble, and Bass

enhanced.

and an effects loop, and a headphone jack.
Last but not least the Champ has a 25 Watt tube amp, two 6l6gc's and
one 7025/12ax7a

| 2539.4 | RAVEN1::BLAIR | What *is* it, Man? | Thu Jun 18 1992 13:43 | 10 | |
Pat,
25 watts into a 12" speaker, eh? What is the speaker (watts) rating?
Does it 'breakup' nicely?
Also, how does the reverb sound? Does it compare favorably to
other (e.g., Twin) Fender reverb units?
Thanks,
-pat
