Stick up on 6c10s while you can, I have!
Once there gone these amps may be done!

Thank you Martin,Thats even clearer.It would be a great little well not really little project to build,put in a nice cab with a better speaker and you would have a cool amp.That even has a parts list ,Thanks buddy!!http://faithamps.weebly.com/

The only thing I noticed is his amp had a pull boost on the treble and one of the volumes and mayby one more.Not sure.The parts list did not show that ,It also had reverb too.Thanks

Re: PRivera era Super Champ
Sorry I read Rivera and went to Champ II. If you want to build a Supefchamp you don't need to use a 6C10. It's just three 12AX7 triodes.

These pots were in Diaz and fender ,Pull boost ,base cut.Anyone ever seen then from mousser or anywhere.A couple were in the fender super champ.They work good for making the pot foot switchable.Im thinking of a super champ build one day.I would need some help.

Re: PRivera era Super Champ
Serviced one of these recently and thought it was a pretty hip amp. A local blues artist owns it. Sounds pretty cool.

Re: PRivera era Super Champ
Antique Electronic has a number of pots with push-pull switches, but they are mostly small diameter units. If I were going to build one of these amps I'd opt for a mini toggles mounted next to the controls.
Here is the layout and the schematic for the amp you have. A Princeton Reverb chassis would work nicely for one of these.

A NYC '80s New Wave fave, even live. Robert Quine and that crowd always sung the praises of the original SC. I stopped caring much about vintage gear but wish I'd kept my little 'last great american amp."Serviced one of these recently and thought it was a pretty hip amp. A local blues artist owns it.

Re: superchamp
Look at AES/CED... Find the pots and click on "switched" in the column on the bottom right. There are several CTS pots that will do the trick.ampmike wrote:These pots were in Diaz and fender ,Pull boost ,base cut.Anyone ever seen then from mousser or anywhere.A couple were in the fender super champ.They work good for making the pot foot switchable.Im thinking of a super champ build one day.I would need some help.

Re: PRivera era Super Champ
I've written up quite a few ideas about this amp over on TDPRI, annalizing the circuit and how it works, the switching, various mods to the original, but most importantly, how to get around the problem of the foot-switch sucking volume from the clean channel when it is connected.
Have a look [url] http://www.tdpri.com/threads/super-cham ... ng.473956/ it may be some interest.

Re: PRivera era Super Champ
I think I found a replacement pot like that from Weber.
Thanks
