From The Web:
The Fender '57 Custom Champ tube amplifier brings you the authentic sound, looks, and vibe of a classic. It pumps five watts of tube-powered tone through an 8" Weber Special Design speaker, which includes an alnico magnet for vintage sound. The handwired circuitry ensures that you can easily manipulate your guitar's volume and tone controls to get a range of dynamic, responsive tones. And the Fender '57 Custom Champ's solid pine cabinet, lacquered tweed covering, and leather strap handle make the '57 Custom Champ look as amazing as it sounds.
Authentic 5F1 Circuitry for Heightened Dynamics and Sweet Overdrive
The '57 Custom Champ features Fender's acclaimed 5F1 circuit, which has become legendary for its heightened dynamic response and sweet-sounding tube overdrive when pushed. A 12AX7 preamp tube matched to a classic 6V6 power amp tube generates the in-demand overdrive that has made this circuit a staple of recorded music. When the volume is cranked, this amp sings with the natural compression and rich even-order harmonics of a power tube working at peak output.
Weber Special Design Speaker for Classic Champ Tone
The '57 Custom Champ is loaded with an 8" 4-ohm Weber Special Design alnico speaker. Specially designed to stay true to the classic Champ sound. Compressing to create a full tone at higher levels, the speaker also ably reproduces the classic tones found at the top of the amp's volume knob.
Authentic Components and Handwired Craftsmanship
The '57 Custom Champ features handwired craftsmanship and modern sourced components chosen for their authentically vintage Fender tone, including yellow coupling capacitors that provide sparkly cleans and creamy overdrive with a smooth top end and round mids. On stage, the amp looks great while retaining the classic Champ's visual appeal—lacquered tweed, leather handle and Bassman grille cloth. In the studio, the 5-watt design means you can explore the full range of available tones without overloading sensitive microphones or your ears.
A Style-Spanning Performer for Any Guitarist
Updated components, hand wired craftsmanship and a classic circuit design combine to create the '57 Custom Champ, a style-spanning performer suited for guitarists of all types.
A wide variety of playable tones inhabit this hand-wired performer—from crisp, classic cleans to naturally compressed overdrive that responds remarkably to guitar volume and picking dynamic changes.
