Comments: The 1948-49 production was changed to the Champion 600. All the ones I've seen had the 800 crossed out and 600 penciled in. I've only seen 1x6 versions all with the two-tone you see here. Kinda Burgundy/cream. The layout and schematic are identical to the Champ 5C1. (John @Vintage Amp South)
