Fender Champion 600: 5 Watts Of Tube Goodness

November 06, 2007
Fender Champion 600

The Fender Champion 600 is an old-school amp with a little kick. This 5-Watt class A munchkin includes a specially designed 6-inch speaker that barks vintage tone. In this video Dan pairs it up with his Burns of London Relic. This guitar is the twangiest guitar this side of Nashville and the tone of the guitar and the amp mesh together nicely to create a very interesting and unique tone.

Check out the video to hear how this combination sounds as recorded throught the Neumann U87Ai mic and the Focusrite ISA428 preamp.

Nice in-depth walkthrough. I liked the screencast format... I mean, I like video too, but the screencast worked for this review.

Thanks for the review. I'm just starting to learn and I need something for practice. No need for big and expensive right now. Plus I like vintage. Looks and sound.
