The Fender Vibro Champ XD is a modern day amp, modeled after the vintage Vibro Champs. This is an all tube amp that is quite small, delivering only 5 watts of power. It's got a 6V6 tube as well as a 12AX7 preamp tube. The speaker is an 8" one, and the amp also has a built in effects. The amp has a single 1/4" input in the front and a 1/4" line out and speaker out in the back.
UTILIZATION
The make up of the Fender Vibro Champ XD is really quite simple. Most users shouldn't encounter any issues with it as it is pretty straight forward. The parmaeters that it has includes those for gain, volume, voice, treble, bass, FX level, and FX select. The voice parameter is for choosing between 16 different preset preamp sounds, which basically gives you a wide array of different types of sounds. A manual shouldn't be necessary for most users.
SOUNDS
The tone of the Fender Vibro Champ XD is quite good for a little 5 watt amp. There is also a lot that you can do with it between the 16 different voices and the effects. I've used the amp for a recording session with a Fender Stratocaster and no other effects beyond what's on here. I'm a big fan of the clean tones on this amp, as they sound very bright and full. The voice parameter allows for a lot of flexibility with your clean sounds as well. The built in effects include tremolo and reverb, and most of them are pretty good sounding, although they didn't blow me away. For an amp that only has 5 watts of power, the Vibro Champ sounds pretty awesome.
OVERALL OPINION
The Fender Vibro Champ XD is the perfect practice amp for players on a variety of levels. It's got a lot of versatility, which isn't something that you will normally find on a five watt practice amp. This amp can give you a pretty loud sound, but it's not suitable for live shows in my opinion. I'd really only recommend it for those looking for a practice amp, with the added bonus of being able to use this in the studio...
