5 Watt hand wired 1x8 Tube Amp that is considered to be the king of recording and practice amps.
The 5F1 Classic Tweed Champ is one of the most iconic little tube amplifiers. It's Clapton's "Layla" amp, Joe Walsh’s "Funk #49" amp, and Keith Richards secret studio weapon on countless Stones tracks. It can be heard on all sorts of other the classic rock and blues cuts too. It has a distinctive aggressive overdrive that is familiar from the moment you plug in. It has a low 5 watts of output so can be fully cranked with ease.
This is a beautiful hand-wired amplifier finished in an eye catching Dark Tweed!
Featuring an 8" Weber Alnico Classic Speaker 4ohm.
Internal speaker is not hard wired to the amplifier - it is plugged into a speaker jack (stock from Carl's) giving you the option to easily plug into a larger/different (4ohm) speaker cabinet.
