  • I have a Ben Fargen modified champ 600. It has some of the sweetest tones. This video does not do justice to the tones this amp is capable of after the Fargen mod. I have left instructions to be buried with my Fargen champ 600 and Fender 59 Strat. As I plan on playing the blues until the devil lets me out of hell.

  • @bluesintheblood Bigger's does NOT = better by any means. Those of us that have been into sound for many years have learned that many times "good things come in small packages" cab dimensions, wood types, shapes etc all work to produce ones sought after sound. Sometimes that small amp can be "tweeked" to ones taste however. Many greats have recorded classic tracks from small amps that were mic'ed and tweeked to PERFECTION. ;)

  • what's with all the mods on these small amps, why not just buy a bigger amp?

  • how much did the mod cost?

  • Sounds great! I want one!

  • If you're changing so much, why not make your own amp? Modding a perfectly good amp like this is called 'Cursing in the church' in my country.

  • Watch this: youtube.com/watch?v=YHfoON7ukS­c

  • Nice. I like the thin bright sound of those amps.

  • i spent about $100 on my 600 champ and i think it sounds better than this but cant be sure without a side by side comparison i point to point wired it with the original transformers and kept the ss rectifier so i can run a 6l6 or 6v6 put a weber 8 in speaker and new grill cloth all hi quality parts pots switch jack im wondering what some quality transformers and a choke would do looking for some more clean volume and headroom ? also put vintage rca 6v6gt and ge 12ax7 7025
