TRINITY Tramp (Champ) Guitar Amplifier, Hand-wired 5 watt.

I am selling my Trinity Tramp Amp that I bought new in 2012. It has spent its entire life in my home studio and only cosmetic issues are that some tolex is peeling on the top (you can see this in the photo of the top) and a bump on the corner (also in a photo) it picked up while moving. It is a 5 watt champ circuit with a 12AX7 and 6V6 tube but can be configured to different tubes and 4, 8, or 16 ohms speakers. Tubes are NOS that I installed a month ago.

I have included a description from the email I got when I bought it below for more details.

It has been a versatile and great sounding champ amp with a lot more flexibility than a single volume knob. It comes with a 10" Weber classic alnico speaker, installed, and includes an additional baffle if you want to install a 12" speaker instead of the 10"

I also have the 12" speaker, an Alessandro GA-SC64 that I will include for an extra $100 mounted and free shipping (it will go in a separate box). The picture has the baffle with the Alessandro on it, but that 12" speaker is NOT included unless you pay the additional $100.

The last retail price was $1200 and most decent handwired (no PCB) amps go for at least $800 so I think it's a great deal. Please email with any questions. I have shipped amps before so it will be well packed with the tubes removed so you need to be comfortable installing tubes.  

I am happy to answer any questions, please feel free to message me.

From my smoke and pet-free home.

Shipping to the lower 48 ONLY, please!

I also have the schematic which I will include.

Copied from the email I got from the builder when I bought it:

FEATURES:

The Tramp is a brand new design that incorporates extreme, useful flexibility with distinct amp voices and plenty of features. With a simple pull of a switch, you can go from Tweed to 'Tude; another pull switch and you can play Fat or Thin. Using the Volume, Master Volume and Power Level controls along with Bass and Treble, achieves tonal nirvana! The design supports 6V6, 6L6, KT66, EL34, 6CA7 and KT77 power tubes so you can swap the single power tube for added gigging volume and headroom.  Power output is approximately 6W with a 6V6, or 12W with the bigger tubes.

The Tramp is effectively two amps in one, which you can alternate between with the simple pull of a switch. It was intended to cover all the bases from Clean to Dirty, and all the possible shades in-between - and it delivers an amazing tonal range in doing so.

In Tweed mode, it's heritage is 3Fx series Tweed Princeton or Champ, with the additional benefit of Treble-Bass tone controls. Tweed is smooth and creamy with a welcome warmth, vintage voice but with a little more solidity and clarity. It is full of soul and you can really hear the Fender heritage.

In Tweed mode, the Volume control is usable through it's entire travel -gorgeous cleans around 5/6 on the dial, slight break-up around 7/8, and an amazing humming drive at 9/10. Everything you want in the classic Tweed amp spectrum, from clean to dirty, is right here.

In 'Tude mode, the Tramp exceeds what you could traditionally achieve with the simple two-tube amp format. The sound opens up with an astonishingclarity, and extended range of clean and distorted sounds. 'Tude glows with all of its harmonic content, and grinds when the guitar gets wound up.

Harmonic haze' is what it's all about in the clean parts of 'Tude - gorgeous! Just a little hair on the tone for presence with all these overtones swirling around it and a nice solid foundation. Cranked up, it's complex, raw and edgy but still under control, and smooth but in an aggressive way - there's tone right to the top.
