1965 Blackface Fender Vibro Champ with 10" Jupiter Ceramic Speaker and Studio Slips cover
Our users rate Reverb
1965 (May) Blackface Vibro Champ in great player condition. I upgraded the original 8" baffle (included with a Radio Shack 8" speaker) to a Mojotone baffle with a really nice Jupiter 4ohm, 25w ceramic speaker, and reused the original grill cloth. I also swapped the witch hat knobs for the ivory "transition" knobs because I preferred the look; originals included.
This amp sounds great; think Princeton tone at a more house-friendly 6W, although it gets pretty loud with the very efficient Jupiter speaker.
See pic 3 for the date codes: chassis serial number, production number on the label, OT and PT codes are all consistent with a mid-65 amp. Heavy-duty, long, grounded power cord. It includes a really nice Studio Slips cover.
Again, this is a player-grade amp, not a collector's piece.
Hate to see it go, but I've got a Tweed Champ that gets me the tone I want at a lower volume.
