Fender Champ 25 SE - Drive preset
Verified · 88/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.
The Champ 25 SE is a 1992 hybrid Fender combo: the whole preamp is op-amp circuitry and the valves sit in the power amp. The Normal channel has Volume, Treble, Bass and Mid with a mid-shift switch; the Drive channel has Gain, diode clipping, Contour, Volume, Treble and Bass. Footswitchable channels and spring reverb lead to a Loudness control, a 12AX7A gain stage and cathodyne phase inverter, and two fixed-bias 6L6GCs for about 25 watts.
