Tribute to the legendary Tweed Champ.
IVU Creator Oxblood
Oxblood is a tribute to the original Tweed Champ 5F1 (5watts). It is a simple SMALL LOUD AMP with tube spirit. The Tweed-covered Champ amp of the 1950s is well known as the small-but-mighty tone machine that belongs in every serious guitarist’s collection. It’s a terrific practice amp, simple and pure, and is also regarded by countless pro players as indispensable in the recording studio.
The IVU Creator Oxblood continues that glorious legacy, with all-tube hand-wired circuitry and well-selected components. It features the classic 5F1 design with Tone control modification, delivering about 5 watts of output power easily pushed into warm, compressed distortion. A Celestion® Eight 15 8” speaker is ideal for the bedroom or the stage. “Orange Drop” tone capacitors add subtly nuanced tonal magic. It comes with custom transformers, “chicken-head” volume and tone controls, a well-quilted cabinet, lacquered TWEED covering ( RED or WHITE ) . . . and more. The result is a richly rewarding Champ amplifier experience !
Oxblood features an AC power switch (115V / 230V) to fit the power requirements of traveling musicians and offers the ultimate dream: a pedal-friendly amplifier.
The Eight 15 is ideal for upgrading your bedroom blaster with an authentic British tone. Well-balanced mids and highs complement a surprisingly meaty bottom end - it’s just about the biggest-sounding 8-inch loudspeaker we’ve ever heard! The Eight 15 speaker is available in four, making it ready, willing, and able to blast new life into junior combos like
Fender® ChampTM, bringing extra depth, girth, and punch to your tone. Supersize the performance of your amp with the sonic might of the Eight 15, the fattest-sounding 8-inch
speaker around.
