Grill is very clean, control panel shows some marks but no rusting/damage, covering is very clean with some general marks but no major tears/rips/etc. Speaker is original Jensen special design blue label.

Up for sale, a 1967 Fender Vibro Champ in excellent condition and in perfect working order. This little Blackface-era Fender wonder delivers five watts of pure Class A tube tone! A surprisingly loud amp with the original alnico 8 speaker, this Vibro Champ delivers just the right amount of glassy, sparkling clean tone before pushing into smooth, lightly compressed tube overdrive at about 4 on the volume knob. Dynamic, responsive, and absolutely huge sounding when you put a microphone in front of it, it’s hard to beat the Vibro Champ for pure simplicity and great tone. And of course, Fender’s lush sounding tremolo circuit has a strong pulse and wide range of speeds, perfect for subtle shifts in volume or machine gun chop. The circuit is very original, with stock Schumacher transformers that date between late 66 and mid 1967, and pots that date to the 42nd week of 66. The circuit features a brand new multi-section filter can cap along with a couple new Sprague capacitors in the preamp to ensure optimal functionality. The tube chart is very clean and fully intact, with an “QB” code which translates to February of 1967. The speaker is the original Fender-branded Oxford 8 with a clean blue Fender foil label on the alnico magnet. The original smooth black tolex and silver sparkle grillcloth is quite clean. All of the stock hardware is intact, with light patina on the original handle caps and sphinx glides. The tolex is free of notable wear, and the grillcloth has only light aging, with the original raised Fender badge intact. The faceplate is very clean with its full compliment of black witch hat knobs, and this Vibro Champ is an ideal specimen of Class A Blackface Fender tone.
