Great find, happy new Super Champ amp day. I've long been a pawn shop prowler. Dig through a lot of stones but occasionally find a diamond. Cheers

I would love to try one someday. Congrats on the cool amp...


And now, I'm off to find a schematic...

Congrats, on the closet queen!
Looks new.

Do you bring that up on a variac, or just play it, or replace the filter caps first?

I powered it up at the pawn shop every function worked fine at closer inspection I honesty don't think the amp was played
the tubes are stock rebranded Fender and all test NOS. nice pair of black plate 6V6 the 6C10 triple sided triode reverb driver tube
I have only seen in Ampeg it's rare as hens teeth now. At home when I powered up with the variac it only draws .250mA the can filter capacitor
is still good. The only reason I got this amp the last one I had got an offer I couldn't refuse and it is an unique amp in Fender history.
