- Two of my favorite studio / practice amps of all time! I think it's a good idea to compare them with different tones. To see how they really performs.

For my taste the champion is the winner. Although there are are some high frequencies, I think this could be adjustable. The champion in my ears has this brightness and punchiness that I really like while the nux sounds more compact and confined to my ears. They both sound great but I think I’m gonna stick to buying the one I intended too in the first place, the champion 20. Thanks for the video!
The Champion is more alive. Much better frequency range. The Nux sounds dull. Limited frequency response. But the bottom line is what one personally likes for their playing style. I've personally heard the Champion 20 push out some beautiful warm tones as well as high screaming distortion, which makes the Champion amp more versatile for many different playing styles. Let's face it. Fender has been around since 1946. I think that over those years, they know what they are doing. I've played Fender guitars through Fender amps for years, and I don't see myself changing ever. The Champion is clearly the winner for me. I appreciate that you do short licks to demo each amp. I hate it when those who demo amps play on and on as if they are either boasting their playing agility or trying to slyly audition online. Much mahalo!
It could be the settings. Amps dont sound the same when they are set to the same numbers on the pots.
Surely you could tweak the Nux for the same amt of highs.
Bt you r right abt the Champion being more alive here. Ive seen other reviews where the Nux is not as muffled and glloomy.
I think today people, including myself, are conditioned to like modelling amp sounds or amp sim sounds more. But honestly, the Champion actually sounds a lot more like amps just sound. The Nux is clearly perceived as modelling sound.
Congratulations on your very comprehensive comparison of these two great amps, a lot of time and effort must have gone into this video. For me the rock tone of the Fender when you are playing hell's bells is just perfect .
Great review, I am looking at the NU-X 40bt myself. If you had a line in both at the same time, the sound might be interesting? While there were significant differences between the tones of the 2 amps, I likes the NU-X better. Sound was cleaner for the most part except for the 2nd test, although the Fender is actually cheaper in Australia than the NU-X! Suprising!!
Thanks for taking the time!
I gotta say, the Mighty seems more consistent across the board but damn... That bass from the Champ cannot be rivaled.
Nice comparison video. I prefer the NUX Mighty 20 BT,overall. Plus,the NUX has a superior effects section.
Did you use the foot switch at the end of video only for switching between amps ? Overall, I think the NUX would fit my punk rock style more. The Fender sounded to harsh in the higher frequencies.
For a small Amp I like the Fender Champ 20 Sound. I use to use Fender back during the Mid to late 60’s in my Rock Band while in High School. Had a Fender Deluxe Reverb to start out with then I traded it in on a New Piggy Back Fender Bandmaster. I don’t have either anymore. I actually still own a 1968 Vox Viscount I restored at home recently. I purchased a Fender Champ 20 (5 years) ago to move around the house as needed. For $99 at the time I felt I couldn’t go wrong. I think today I saw them selling for $129.95.
Loved your comparison Jimmy. The sounds in your demo would be another great video; show us how you got them on each amp. I have the fender model and would love to know your amp settings for each sound.
Nux mighty is far more superior than Fender champion, sound of Nux is really nice, consistent and warm, while champion gives us some of the weirdest frequencies ever and a terrible speaker quality, I’m definitely buying the Nux
Fender is the better choice. 👍
hi please for help me..laney stb and nux mighty 8bt which one do you think i should buy ?
Nux is a great amp for the price. Fender sounds natural.
The NUX is pretty nice i plan on getting one anyways
It's a pretty powerful little monster!
Yeah im going to be using this in gigging paired with a Epiphone SG
Got myself BT20 & it's amazing. Link with the apps & it will blow out your mind!
I think I'm hearing a lot of harsh 2-3k frequency on the Fender speaker during drive tones. Direct, the Champion 20 sounded better than with the speaker. I just ordered at Mighty BT 20 I'm looking forward to getting it.
Did you like nux
@@cookiemonster2949 yes very much! It sounds great! I wish it had a foot controller though.
@@davecooper360 does it take guiatr pedals well?
EXCELLENT VIDEO B RAH
what is you mic set up for this comparison?
Sony FDR X3000 action camera's build in mic.
Great review 👍
I like the fender for its bright tones sounds more open to me, I'd like to know if it can handle my NUX MG30. Is it pedal friendly? Please help 🙏
If you tend to use the built in speaker, I'll say no! To me, I'll only use the Champion 20 for direct recording.
In wired recording mode Fender 20 sounds better overall so things could come down to a better speaker of the NUX.
Champion is better to my ears. But as most things are it is subjective. You become accustomed to what you listen to.
The difference is just that champion sounds like it's high with its treble... And that's adjustable yeah...
Champion is definately brighter. I don't like the muddy sound of the Mighty.
Fender win! Brasil
In my opinion, direct recording situation it is!
Its this treble fashion sound, treble wars thing again. Thats what Fender does. I think you can get more useable sounds out of the NU>X
which one is louder
FENDER: HIGHS LITTLE LOW NUX: MUDDY THROUGHOUT
Fender Champion 20 has brighter sound
Nux is much better, not to mention i have mighty series of nuX too 😊. Fender sounds too rocky. Well, thats what fender is meant for.
I don't know how in the world ANYONE could say the NUX sounds better than the Fender. Both companies make many great products. Depending on many factors, one may be better than the other in a given situation. But in THIS particular comparison video, the Champion 20 sounds far better and it was obvious from the git go that you were biased toward the NUX before the first note was played.
I'm not sponsored by NUX, and you are right when the champion is in direct recording situation. I like it more than the Mighty 20. But I just hate the built in speaker in the Champion....
At t = 5:37 the Nux is set to give more tops. The tops prior to this were absent from the Nux. The playing is cool for the dem but the fender was set to more tops throughout up to this time point.. the Nux a bit short changed..? Fender a little down at the bottom end maybe, not sure. Also the Nux seems a bit more middy which should cut through better in a mix. Nice dem mate, we’ll done.
The Fender sounds too thin. And the Nux sounds too dark and muddy.
Fender for better clean tones and Nux better for dirty tones..
champion 20 good sound.
i have mighty 20BT.
mighty 40 or champ 40 for small gig?
Can you add an effects processor to the NuX? I know it's a modeling amp but can you bypass ?
You can use pedals with this of course, but you can't bypass the amp sim.
is that good or not?@@jimmyrocks43
Nux 20bt vs Blackstar id core 10 ? which one ?
blackstar id core 20👍
Is the NUX battery powered?
Nope. If you need battery powered amp, take a look at the NUX Mighty 8
@@jimmyrocks43 Yeah, I already have the Mighty 8SE and I absolutely love it!!
The Mighty Air is coming to the market! You'll gonna enjoy that I bet! Check out my review of it~
@@jimmyrocks43 The Mighty Air?? I haven't heard about that one. Do you have any inside information about any of the specs or if it's battery powered?
To me fender sounds more alive but the nux is a great price🤔
The Fender sounds too thin. And the Nux sounds too dark and muddy.
Nux
That's the 40
no comparison possible, as the Nux is much better than the Fender, Fender is poor, sour.
But I do think FENDER's direct output sounds better than the BT20.
Fender is classic tone, nux modern tone
Great review man 🤘 I'm torn between these two amps. Can you help a brother out and tell me which one I'm better off with?
If you want to use the headphone output for recording or silent practice, choose the Fender. If you just want to use the build in speaker, choose the NUX.
Could the NuX not direct record from headphone output?
NUX need to connect from head phone out to audio interface. Right?
@@saritc5843 Yes.
@@saritc5843 Use a microphone in front of the speaker.
My god, that fender amps sucks. People who says it is OK just said that bcos of it logo! Cover the amps up for a blind test. I am pretty sure they will condemn Fender all the ways. It simply sounds like a cheapo 1watt practice amp!
I think you are just sponsoring the mighty... the champion is the winner
I'm not sponsored by NUX, and you are right when the champion is in direct recording situation. I like it more than the Mighty 20. But I just hate the built in speaker in the Champion....
Easy...champion 20 by far...the nux sounds like shit
