Is this a champ clone right??



There is also a Tweed Twin clone (2x12) among others:
http://www.joyochina.cn/en/product/fl_30.html

The joyo products seems to be very good, any of you has tried one of this amps?

In my country one store has the champ clone, for a very good price (a little more than a Laney Cub 10)

1847 - How exactly does that link help the OP with any information on this amp? It's simply an advert for an amp that's been heavily modified. It gives you no information regarding the original circuit!

Rogonzab - Yes it's a champ clone. It's 5 watts and has a 6V6 power valve, a 5Y3 rectifier, a 12AX7 preamp valve and an 8" speaker. It's apparently point to point wired as well. It should make a fine little practice amp and could be useful for small duo gigs.

"There is also a Bassman clone (2x10) among others:
http://www.joyochina.cn/en/product/fl_30.html"

The 40W Vintage Clean is a reproduction low power tweed twin (5E8A) with 2x12", not a bassman.

Kingley, 1847 post does help. The mods that you do in an amp are the thing that you dont like about it.

"I have modified this extensively to the original fender tweed champ specs" So is not a original champ circuit

"I have bypassed the silly tone control that Joyo decided to include." A bad tone control??


5F6H, you are right, I judge the book by his cover. Is a 2x12, I will correct that of the original post.

I cant find info on the prices, but the litle one it does have a good price (at least in my country)
