The Narrow Panel Tweed Champ you dream about! Probably the most mojo heavy amp I own this 1961 Tweed not only has its original capacitor set and back panel but has that perfect gritty tweed tone that modern amps just can’t replicate.

Purchased from Detroit, not much was known about its original owner. All that remained for clues inside was an old Bobby pin and the corner of a vintage lifesavers wrapper so whoever she was this rocker had fresh breath and great taste in musical gear.

Original tweed is in awesome vibey condition, the amp also retains its original speaker with a repaired original cone. The only modern safety changes that have occurred have been the addition of a 3 prong cord and sealing off the original heat shield with modern shield tape. Also has a high quality mix of old stock tubes. The original handle is very worn out and included but has been replaced with a modern replacement for use. The back panel screws have also been replaced.
