I enjoyed this video. I recently bought a regular super champ x2 for 200.00. Immediately replaced the Chinese stock speaker with a Weber CTC10 that I bought used in perfect condition for 30.00 and completely brought this amp to life. It made a remarkable improvement to the overall tone of every voice. I downloaded the Remuda SC software and like you did some deeper tweaking. Compression is a must for every modeling amp I’ve ever played through; and I’ve played through many. But this little Fender is easily the best once compression is added. It adds 3 dimensionality to the overall sound. Mids adjustment and sag and bias adjustments allow even more tone shaping. And don’t forget the cabinet sims! Most people like to only use the clean channel 1 and use it as a pedal platform. I think that’s fine, but for me there are a couple channel 2 voices that really shine. Voice 3 a 57 tweed deluxe dirty and compressed sounds incredible. Completely round tone with definite searing 5e3 characteristics. I’d say Fender got 80% of the way there. Which is impressive. Incredible touch sensitivity. Roll back the gain and it sparkles and purrs beautifully. Similar is voice 10 an AC30 dirty and compressed. Same thing here. Roll back the gain to clean it up some and it’s very impressive. Plus where this super champ really shines is when you crank the volume and get the power tubes cooking. Also, these modeled voices also take pedals extremely well. Just like channel 1! It’s really a budget tone chasers dream. And I have a funny feeling Fender caught wind of it and killed it. Why should someone pay $1200 for a Princeton reissue when they can get close for $400?

I’m liking the new set up. You’re really stepping up the production quality on your videos. Great job 👍

¡Thanks for this cool explanation!

Hi!

"I'm a hardcore tone purist".. me too, love it. Keep up the good work, Mate. :)

Great video. I have a Super Champ X2 and could never get the software to work on my MacBook either. Good to know it wasn't just me. Nice to see a demo of the software.

You know some great riffs!

The cleans on this sound damn close to the likes of a Princeton or even a DRRi

2021 I still got the software up fender fuse there's a lot of empties that don't work no more. I use the fender mustang 1 amp

Great review and demo! I'm seriously tempted to get one of these. Do you know if the power tube bias pot can be accessed from underneath the chassis, like on some other Fender amps? Or does the chassis have to come out?

👍

Fender showed theyr true colors by discontinuing the fuse software..

First Channel is a Clean Channel

Is it automatically applying those 2 rack effects to all the presets, making them not the actual presets anymore? Just checking. I just got my X2 and haven't hooked it up to usb yet. Wondering if there's a way to tell if the previous owner edited it with the software, and perhaps return certain voices to default if needed?

Can you add the champ amp to your fender mustang amp

Ive always used the software but cant run it on my mac anymore :(

messa?
