1965 Fender Vibro Champ just into the shop! Second to the Princeton Reverb, they're widely regarded as one of the best low-wattage combos that Fender ever put out. Perfect for home use, studio work, and the occasional mellow gig, the Vibro Champ represents the final evolution of the heralded Champ circuit with wonderful 60s Fender tone.

This is a great sounding and relatively clean example that has been well maintained over the years. It's likely one of the last to feature the pre-CBS spec, with a no-logo baffle and FEIC nomenclature. Its original speaker was replaced at some point with an older Zenith 8" speaker. Top back panel screws were replaced as well. It recently received a recap and service, and some old stock genuine vintage Fender grill cloth replaced modern cloth that was installed when we acquired the amp.

**Please Note: All vintage amplifiers - regardless of service history - contain electronic components that will eventually require replacement or repair. This is often unpredictable and should be expected as a vintage amplifier owner. We are not responsible for additional service upon receipt.**
Condition: Vintage. Fully inspected and set up by TME staff before it ships or leaves the showroom.
