I am new to this site, and this is my first post. I have a question about a Super Champ XD I recently purchased from a pawn shop that is no longer under warranty. The amp worked great and I was getting some amazing tones for the first couple of days. It first started acting up when I changed the effects, the light stayed on but I was getting no sound at all. After switching it on and off a few times it fired back up and worked great for a couple weeks. A couple weeks ago I changed the voice on the second channel and it stopped working again, this time for good. I took it to an independent amp tech and he said once he bypassed the circuit board that controls the effects he got a signal. He thought it would be an easy fix, but since he is not a licensed Fender dealer he couldn't get the part. Is there any way I could just get that particular part? I called the Fender shop in my area and they blew a bunch of smoke and said it would be $100 to clean up the solders, then tried to sell me another amp. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi z-dub,

I'm sorry to hear that you ran into some less than useful information and advice. So, I would suggest that you have a look at the link below to locate one of our authorized service centers. This way, you could take the amp in, and ask them to give you a quote on the part and/or the repair as well. I hope this is helpful. Please let us know if we can assist further from this end.

Best Regards,

Alan
