Going to research newer models and specs later when I get to work.

If these numbers are off my shite drawing, blame that website of truth and knowledge not me.

It's not just speakers and watts, circuits are different. Blackface/Silverface era amps have that trademark pristine clean Fender sound that no other amps have. Most of the cheaper amps gravitate towards generic Marshall sound with muffled cleans, early break up and thick distortion. Blackface/Silverface amps are considered better pedal platforms because they have that initial transparent texture to the sound. Plus they have some of the best spring reverbs among all amps

Pro Jr and Blues Jr are from Hot Rod series. Also it's a response to another thread as well where Vibro Champ was put against Excelsior and other cheaper alternatives

Still working on vibro champ and excelsior, I'm gonna put that superchamp xd 2.0 or whatever it is

I thought the deluxe and the deville were the hotrod series

Cool

No good new guitars this year so I can focus on getting more 2020 teles.

If I was 100% getting a champ, IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢d buy a real silver face for the same price as a reissue.

Yeah, for sure. I have a '68 Princeton Reverb Custom RI and it's just lovely

Proper spring reverb tank, lovely tremelo. Plenty clean headroom.

I got mine ex demo for less than these new Champs are going for. Can also be very simply modded to close to the blackface RI which is very much more expensive

Second hand they seem to be still pretty spendy though. Brexit?

I sent it back to Bezos and bought 3 different teles since then.

I had the 68 Princeton Custom as well and it was ace. Only sold it to upgrade to the 68 Deluxe as I thought I'd be gigging with it. Turns out I McCartney'd and became the gigging bassist.
