Description
In a historic collaboration, Fender introduces its first artist signature amplifiers-EC Series amps bearing the name of legendary guitarist Eric Clapton.
Clapton recorded some of his biggest hits with a tweed Champ; a late 1950s practice amp and Fender classic prized by countless pros for its great low-output sound and easy-to-record performance. He still uses one today, and weve answered his call for a special model with several distinctive features by introducing the EC Vibro-Champ. Built to Claptons own exacting specifications and handmade in the United States, its a fascinating variation on the 57 Champ designed with a 50s-era output tube bias tremolo (which produced a more throbbing pulse than later Fender tremolo circuits) and a switchable power attenuator (reduces speaker output). Its a must for Clapton fans and guitarists who want the ultimate in low-power tube performance.
Features include hand-wired all-tube circuitry on eyelet board with premium components; circuit based on late-50s Fender Champ amp model 5F1 (about 5 watts); tremolo speed control and footswitch jack (footswitch optional); single 8 Weber Signature speaker with alnico magnet for dynamic, sensitive response; Groove Tubes 6V6GT output tube, two 12AX7 preamp tubes and 5Y3GT rectifier tube; Schumacher custom transformers; internal speaker disconnect (allows use of external 4-ohm speaker enclosure); finger-joined solid pine enclosure for warm, resonant tone; lacquered tweed covering with vintage-style brown/gold grille cloth and leather strap handle. Deluxe fitted cover included.

I have purchased this amp form Cosmo music 10 days ago.
It is reallly an incredible tone machine!
Great little amp for practice or recording!
Quality construction is top notch!
Fender should include the on/off footswitch for activate/desactivate the tremolo,
Highly recommended!
