I use a fender bassman cover

Barbaraeatwell,

Where can I find a cover for it. Or which Fender amp cover is compatible with it.

sergfender,

Getting OT but I’m not sure the Super Champ was a Rivera “home-brew” design. Look at the Princeton Reverb w/ Boost schematic. It looks a lot like the Super Champ, already using the reverb driver to boost gain (but no fancy Vactrol switching). It seems like a cut and paste into the Super Champ. Seems more likely the features were spec’d by Rivera then handed off to an engineer who worked off a known circuit to get a basic design going.

Expedition Elec,

The 75 was designed before Paul Rivera’s relationship with Fender. The model was made in 1980 and 1981 only. I was one of the first artists to use the 75 starting with the prototype and still have an early production model I got from Fender in 1980.

TIOK,

75 isn’t Rivera, Super Champ IS. Rivera designed the Super Champ – he brought it as a home-brew design into Fender, but, yes, the others were designed by Ed Jahns according to Rivera’s specs.

Stratopastor,
