    I own a Fender Champ II amp in mint condition.
    I bought it in 1984 and have had it on the shelf for years in my den.
    It might have a 100 hours on it.
    New tubes but I have the originals.
    New grill cloth due to a coffee spill but the speaker wasn’t touched..
    Original speaker.
    I want to sell it. Thanks for your attention.

    I also have a Champ II and really like the amp. This is really a cool amp and it is amazing the amount of tones you can get with only four knobs! Mine has new tubes but I have the originals as well. The original speaker was damaged, so I pulled the chassis out of the original cab (kept it, of course) and built another cabinet to make it a head. I usually run it to a 2X12 and it sounds great.

    I have a Champ II as well in absolute mint condition and I’m considering selling it since I have a Super Champ (same year). They’re both dead mint and I’m happy to provide photos, video demo and live chat. Would be shipping from Los Angeles.

    I built a Champ II from a VC kit. I followed the original circuitry schematic except for a Mid pot and opting for a GZ34 Rectifier and BIAS pot. I can always put is a SS plug, but the 385 Vp is adequate. I had a space issue for a 10″ ceramic and opted for a C10Q, not my first choice but I couldn’t fit the WGS. It is a mini deluxe for sure.
