Up for sale, a 1980 Fender Vibro Champ in excellent 100% original condition and in perfect working order. One of Fender's purest circuits, the Vibro Champ's Class A design delivers five all tube watts of clear, chiming cleans and raucous, sizzling drive with a twist of the Volume knob. This Vibro Champ breaks up nicely too, sounding positively huge with a mic in front of it.
