Vintage 1954 Fender Tweed Champ 5D1 Wide Panel USA Amplifier
Vintage 1954 Fender Tweed Champ 5D1 Wide Panel USA Amplifier
This is by far the cleanest Tweed Champ you’ll ever find! I found this stunner sat in the corner of a store in Florida last year, and just couldn’t refuse bringing it back with me. It’s an original 1954 ‘Wide Panel’ Tweed Champ, model 5D1. It is fully original including the Cletron speaker, and in wonderful working order. Aside from the 6V6 being a newer Sovtek example, the other valves are all original. It’s a stupidly cool amplifier with an incredible history – don’t miss out! Please see the pictures for more information as these form part of my description. Offers welcome on this one!

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
