Weber "Tweedifying" Champ Mods I took apart my 1976 Champ that just was nothing to brag about at all. I did the "Tweedifying" Champ mods from Weber's site - doing just the ones that added more VOLUME/Gain - I skipped the last few mods that tamed it back down and gave it this Browner sound they claim.. - Next I added a 12" Weber Classic Alnico 12A150-4 and a GZ34 Rectifier Tube. the speaker and the tube gave me all the Brown sound I could hope for and I keept the LOUD Volume and killer gain that way.. I used a empty Blues Jr. Cab for the 12" Weber Speaker and then I mounted the Champ's Chassis upside down right on top of the Blues Jr. - Looks like Sanford and Son made it.. but its just for home use. this amp is LOUD and has tone to the bone - that blows away my, Thunderbolt, Harmony H415 -Harmony H525 that I think are all for sale now because they just don't have what this has.... Theres allot to be said for modding these Fender amps, maybe I try some mods on the Deluxe Reverb --If I can find some. :RoCkIn
Allen amps has a nice 10 and 12" cab for the champ. The link posted does not work, I am just curious to check it out. I have a '66 BF champ with a Weber 8A125 speaker that I really like and electronically its stock....
yeah i take it you got rid of the tone controls, swapped a poer resistor and got rid of the negative feedback loop??? i did it to my SFVC and put a big weber ceramic innit i was LOUD and crunchy but not brown i also went with a 5u4 for a tighter low end (i call this the jessica alba mod)
