Just got my Fender Champion 600 Amp. This little 5W amp is SWEEEEET!!!!! Awesome tone, it is the practice amp I have been searching for.

Anyone else have one of these little bad boys yet? What do you think?

I hear ya... I got lucky. KC has the Musicians Friend Distribution Center/Retail store. I caught a return when browsing around the store one day, thought is sounded awesome, but stupidly left with out buying it. The more and more I thought about it, the more I wanted it. Of course when I went back it was gone, so I just ordered it off the site, had to pay a little more for it but it is worth it.

Smokey little amp. I do wish it had at least a 8" speaker though, it kinda farts out when cranked much past 9, hope it gets better as the speaker breaks in.

Great little amp Here's a clip I did with mine. All the guitars in it are my 50th anniv. Ltd. edition American series Strat into that little Champ.
There's a bit of Post tracking work but this is what you can do with this little wonder:

I had the same experience when I tried one- beautiful cleans, nice breakup, but it farted out when I dimed (or twelvled?:P ) it. I'd still like to get one eventually...

yeah I get a buzz like that too when i have it past 9, i have chalked it up to the speaker, cause I can disconnect the speaker and run it out of my Vox 2 12 cab and crank it to 12 and no buzz

No buzz with an external speaker ?

I will try ... but i prefer the amp only, it take little space in my living room, not like the 2x12, too much place.
