The concept for this amp was a no-frills, low
priced, high quality low power practice amp. The FRENZEL JF-5E1 "Champ Pro" has all those features....plus a lot
more. It can be even be used for small venues or miked through the PA for larger venues....and it has a post-output
transformer Line Out jack that can be used to drive a larger power amp. For you guys with solid-state amps...the Champ Pro
will drive your solid state and give you great vintage tube tones. . For those late night sessions, you
can unplug the speaker and use headphones in the Line Out jack. The internal load will protect the amp and give you
speaker simulated tones. Another feature is that the Champ Pro is easy to use...just plug and play! No tone
stack adjustments.....just a volume control. You can use your guitar volume and tone controls to get your unique clean
and overdrive levels and then set the amp Volume control for the desired playing level. The Champ Pro comes with our
multi-valve output tube circuit that allows you to use a wide variety of output tubes. It will amaze you with its warm
vintage 60's Fender Champ blues tones ....and of course, it is loaded with all the features that the Frenzel amps are
famous for.
