In Reply to: Fender tweed Champ amp update posted by FenderLover on March 22, 2016 at 19:55:44:
Tried the amp out. Used my 1999 MIM Telecaster. Tone is very nice. OD tone is not quite up to the 1949 Champion 600. I guess I just like that RCA 5693 pentode. It has better OD tone to me, than the 12AX7. At least, for the way I setup my guitars. [Tend to use hot alnico pickups].Test drive it some more, later tonight. BTW... this amp cranked to 12, yes it goes to 12, is pretty loud. I mean, I can easily drown out the stereo. That Weber speaker is not bad, efficiency-wise, for a tiny 6-inch speaker.
