I see an old Rivera era Fender Super Champ for sale locally. It looks in great shape $700. What say you pickers?

Thanks all, I decided against the Super Champ after looking at the video's, and deciding there are other options out there, brand new. Like the Rivera Clubster. And other ones for only a few hundred more dollars. I really do not like the Super Champ X2 I have, it is Ok, but just OK. My Hot Rod Deluxe is a great amp with the C-Rex speaker, I just wanted something all tube the size of the SCX2. However the SCX2 is a monster recorded with a SM57 in front of the hemp cone speaker, both clean and overdrive, that goes out to the studio if I do buy the Clubster or other club sized amp.

Why not a Blues junior III ?

Good cleans, light, 15watts and a more than honest 12" speaker...
Not harsh ( and no rattles) like the previuos version I've had.

There is the link to the Super Champ, I decided on a more modern 6V6 amp if I actually do buy.
