    Clapton’s champ was actually the tweed 5F1 ones from the late 50s . These silverface are still cool. I’d do a cap job and remove the death cap and 3-prong cord for safety

    Good job man. I used to clean my amps and cables with armour all... Next time I will try cleaning them with a mix of simple green and Murphy's soap oil with a small soft brush. Armour all is sticky, messy and it doesn't stay shinny very long. Thanks for the video.

    I just got a 78 from ebay an hour ago. hope to have it by the end of next week. can't wait to start cleaning it up and may look into what it takes to change the tolex, a few rips here and there. but all in due time.

    i had a mixer for which it was too hard to get inside to the back of the scratchy pots. just spraying deoxit from the front (between knob and the metal post), twisting, and making sure it seeped in worked very well. i had scratchy guitar pots, and a tube preamp that got moisture in storage as well. it worked wonders.

    • @ermonski
      @ermonski 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep contact cleaners work well and extend the life of the pots for a few years. However when it gets scratchy again, replacing the pot breathes new life into it!

    Ahhh! Very nice amp! Sounds Organic! I wonder what' kind of capacitor they use on that one. I got a plexi-amp and couple of other amps completely modified by SoZo Amplification
    , John Gaynor. It all sounds Fantastic! but your Silverface champ is a different beast! I love it bro! have fun with it. Do some recording, and let us hear what it sounds. Thank you.

    I'd like to compliment you what with the fact that you don't insist on saving three seconds [lol] using a DRILL to remove the screws. My god, even my favorite techs do this obsessively. Just to save three seconds time. I watch them spin the bit in the bolts/screws, and cringe every time. These are vintage relics, flolks!

  • @LorSTApunk07
    @LorSTApunk07 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Minor gripe. I think that’s mid/late 70s Champ. The Fender grill logo is different on the earlier ones. Looks a lot like my ‘78. Circuit is also the same as Blackface Champs, unlike some other 70s Fenders.

      Hmmmmm... Just going by what my buddy told me. I may dig some more.
      I did find the inside of the chassis really clean so it may have been already modded

    • @LorSTApunk07
      @LorSTApunk07 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The cabs on the early ones are pine and fairly light. The later ones are made of mdf and a bit heavier. Here’s a serial number reference, also. www.superiormusic.com/page195.htm

    • @OfficialPerfectoDeCastro
