I have a little Fender Champ, that is one of my favorite toys. I bought it thinking (or not thinking) I could use it with a reverb pedal. I'm sorry, but I am self professed reverb junky. This little guy sounds so incredibly good when pushed to it's comfortable sounding limit, but without reverb or tremolo, it's just almost ....THERE. I have a Vibro Champ and I love it but I just wish there was a way to modify the little guy to work with FX. Any ideas ?

I have a champ 600, and I use a delay, compression ,equalizer and chorus pedal with it. If you don't want to go that way, try getting your hands on a Line 6 PodXT. There are plenty of effects on a PodXT, including an acoustic effect. Though I always thought that the sound I got from my Champ was great. I just had acquired the pedals over time. But I think that pedals are the way to go.

What I like most about my Champ is that I can turn the volume all the way up on the amp and use the volume and tone on my guitar to get the sound I want out of the amp.

I have an overdrive pedal that sounds great with it at low volume. Reverb units and pedals are pretty spendy. Does anyone know of any good cheap models ?
