I have just bought one of these and would like to know if the transformer has a 240v tap like the Champ and Vibro Champ has .
Also any info/review on this amp would be appreciated .

I think you mean a Champ II (as in Roman Numeral #2, not eleven). :D

Here's sort of the technical information on the Champ II May or may not answer your transformer question. Maybe Retroverbial can answer that question definitively.

".............. the Champ II was the most basic of the tube amps in the "Rivera-era" range of Fenders, having no reverb or extra gain switching. It was discontinued in 1983, along with the Bassman 20 (with which it shared the same metal chassis design), three years before the rest of the range, perhaps because its dearth of features was unfashionable at the time. It had the same colour scheme, power supply, output stage and stock speaker as the Super Champ but the preamp and phase inverter consisted of two 12AX7 tubes." Wikipedia

According to the 2011 Vintage Guitar Magazine Price Guide..... the amp - in excellent condition - has a value around $425 (give or take).

How does it sound? How about posting some photos? :D
