Fender 57 Custom Champ - THE ULTIMATE RECORDING TOOL!

[@Astral_Wave]

His videos have such a unique vibe to them. Great gear and player as well, always.

[@underground_man]

Remarkable Neil Young vibes from this recording! Sometimes, all you need is a tiny Fender amp that's about to explode.

[@JohanSegeborn]

I’m so glad to hear that!

[@philippberry4900]

I’m pretty sure Greg LeRoy used my tweed champ on a Crazy Horse album or two. I don’t know if was ever on any Neil Young records though. He had it for quite a while in the 70s.

[@gavinpearcey]

Amp is pretty good, but that groove is serious business.

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks Gavin! Makes my day to hear that!

@@JohanSegeborn glad I could make your day. Have you swapped a 12ax7 into the v1 spot to see how much that little wolf can growl?

[@cchavez248]

@@gavinpearcey I can't speak for Johan, but I do know the 5f1 only has 1 preamp tube so, chances are, the amp came stock with a single 12ax7 in the preamp slot.

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks Isaac! Glad to hear it!

[@PatrickHalferty]

Just have to say when I look up any amp and you have already have a review video I always watch first. I feel like alot of amp reviews are missing room sound as part of the video. Hard telling what a amp sounds like with a close mic. I mean a slight movement of the mic can change alot. Room mics give me the best idea of how the amp sounds. Most people don't jam by themselves with close mic. They're sitting in the same room, and I much prefer room sound mixed in with close mics. I think you're the best guitar and amp review on youtube.

[@fespot]

Great sounds! I own a 1958 Champ, and actually living in your neighbourhood. If you would like to compare those amp, just let me know!

Great little amp. I have one and if you add Strymon Flint with harmonic tremolo and little reverb + Hudson Broadcast in front of it, it will sound unbelievable good "in the room".
