Kendrick Tweed Champ clone

[McPhaul]

I've had been looking and asking about Tweed Champs for a while now and finally broke down and bought a Kendrick 118.

WOW!!

This thing rocks its a$$ off!
Instant ZZ Top or Rolling Stones or old Clapton.

I haven't played it with a band yet but I think that it will hold it's own with drums and bass in a small room. The damned thing is loud for only 5 watts.


Just had to share,
Will

Congratulations

Ive not had the chance to play Kendrick but the Fender reissue 57 tweed champ I have along with a original 59 and they are great examples without question .

Great for recording and most likely the most touch sensitive amplifer ever made Then there is the tweed deluxe which is right there as well !

I may have created a monster by buying this amp. I absoultely LOVE it. I'm already looking at my other amps to see which one/ones I may put up for sale to buy a Deluxe.

I've got a pair of Kendrick 10" speakers from an amp I sold years ago so I'm going to build a cabinet that the Champ chassis will fit into with one of the 10's to give a little more bottom.

If you like what your hearing with a champ the sensitivity and tone with a great breakup the tweed deluxe RI will also be as that but at a higher leval of satisfaction thumbsup
