Details: All the way back in the ‘40s, Fender introduced the Champ amplifier, then known as the Champion 800. Otherwise known as the “Tweed Champ,” named so because of its unmistakable wrapping, Fender has created the 5F1. Unlike most amp-in-a-box devices, the Formula 51 features a preamp, a phase inverter and an output transformer to deliver the full touch-sensitive Tweed experience, with a grip of extremely interactive controls. The Sag control loads down the transformer to your taste, giving you some real-deal blown-out leads with the twist of a knob. The final control is straight out of the vintage amplifier playbook, incorporating the mid scoop control of the Framus Cobra amp. Run it at 18V for more headroom or stack it with other pedals to really dig into that transformer.
