I bought this amp thinking it would be good for noodling around in the living room and jamming along with records at moderate volume. When it arrived I was impressed by its good looks and myriad features. Then I turned it on. What a disappointment. This thing sounds really poor. Any distortion setting is accompanied by a tremendous amount of background noise and hiss. The "amp models" are nothing more than progressive levels of gain, each coming with an exponential increase in noise. Any of my large amps produce better tone with far less unwanted background sound. I'm not suggesting that comparing this thing to a Marshall or Mesa is fair, but isn't the job of a low power practice amp to produce crunchy tones at mild volume? I found it impossible to jam along with any rock album, because the noise (for me) simply ruins the music. The only usable tones this thing has are the squeaky clean ones, and even these are somewhat thin and trebly. I bought the Champion to replace a Roland Micro-Cube which wasn't quite loud enough. After about an hour of messing with the Fender, and trying many different guitars I put it back in the box to return. Aside from the volume issue, the Roland beats this thing hands-down. Every tone is superior, even coming from a speaker half the size. I cannot recommend this amplifier in any way.Read full review

I bought this amp for use in my home studio. I like the different amp models and the many effects, and that the back is open. I also like that the amp is simple to use, and that the settings are in the front and easy to see. The electronics are not over-computerized, which cause some amps to have the most problems. The only thing I don't like about this amp is that the power cord is a separate piece that sticks out in the back when plugged in, and can result in a loose connection with age, or even in a lost cord. I prefer a power cord that is hard-wired and pointing down into the amp's storage area. The amp's many various sound combinations are fine for my needs. No pedals are necessary. I've had other amps with many models and effects, like the Peavey Viper, Line 6 Spiders, Vox, Crate and more, but the Fender Champion (like the similarly equipped Fender Bullet and DSP amps) is my favorite. I give it 4/5 because of the power cord, and because there is no 4.5/5 choice.Read full review
