Description

The Vibro-Champ is a timeless low-wattage design, perfect for practice, recording, and gigging. The Silverface era offers a great value alternative to the Blackface models, with the Champ circuits remaining largely unchanged throughout the 70s, unlike their larger counterparts. This amp is in great condition, showing only minor signs of previous wear. The upper back panel is missing, which is strangely common with these. Internally, the preamp electrolytics and bias resistor have been replaced. Otherwise, the circuit has remained stock. The RCA speaker jack was replaced with a standard 1/4" type.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
