I got this baby in for service. I liked it so well that I made a offer to buy and the owner excepted. Merry Christmas to me!
This has one 10" Special Design, about 18w of power. Huge filter caps and fixed bias, MV and mid boost. I especially like the mid boost. Plus, it's near mint!
Here is some info.

I have one! They're basically a Super Champ without the reverb or lead channel. I think they were only made for a year or two in the early eighties.

What did you pay for it?

Well, it may be a little hot. I was at a low key jam tonight, it's hard to keep this amp quiet. The settings in the first pic are typicle of what was used. The thing sounds great when you open it up...

Timeistight, what do you think about the Champ II for harp?
