Hi guys

I was just browsing locally online and saw this...
http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/msg/2165567925.html

It looks very clean... too clean?
I don't know much about these old Fenders.
Thoughts?

thanks.

It looks like the real deal. Mint condition with original bill of sale. It doesn't get much better than that. It's a Fender Champ. The price ($700) is a bit on the high end, but mint condition always adds to the price. The Champ was considered a lower end Fender model in it's day, some would say a student model. Still a nice vintage sound, although not in the same league as the two pickup Fender models of this era (the Stringmasters).

Champs sell for around $600 on Ebay.
