Some of you will recognize this amp as my personal build of the BYOC Champlifier kit from not quite a year ago. This kit was designed to Fender's 5F1 Tweed Champ specs, using the finest quality materials and components available. Construction is turret board point-to-point, with vintage-style cloth covered wiring for everything but the transformer wiring. I then mounted it in a gorgeous lacquered tweed cabinet with a custom 10" speaker baffle, along with a Weber Sig 10AS 8 Ohm alnico speaker. The amp is in absolutely mint condition and just drips vintage Champ tone. See photos below. The only reason I'm selling it is that I'll be upgrading to the new BYOC Tweed Royal amp when the kit becomes available, and since that will be configured for switchable 5F1 and 5E3 operation, I just won't need this amp any more. It will be available for shipment as soon as I have the Tweed Royal built, which I would guess will be another month or so. So consider this an "advance offering".
If you add up the cost of the BYOC Champlifier kit (no longer available), and what I paid for the cabinet & speaker, you're looking at $625. And that doesn't factor in anything for the several hours I took to assemble it (and I do nice work). So I hope you'll recognize what an outstanding value it is at $400 plus shipping (US & Canada only), PayPal required. Interested parties please contact me by PM.
