Fender Eric Clapton EC Vibro-Champ, EC Tremolux, and EC Twinolux Amp Demos

PG's Rebecca Dirks is On Location at the Fender Visitor Center for an exclusive first look at Fender's first ever signature amp line. Listen to the EC Vibro-Champ, EC Tremolux, and EC Twinolux in our demo. All three amps are handmade in the United States (watch our video of one being made inside the factory), with interesting mods under the hood specified by Clapton himself. These include a ’50s-era output tube bias tremolo circuit (which produces a more throbbing pulse than later Fender tremolo circuits) and a switchable power attenuator that reduces speaker output (and can disable one speaker in EC Twinolux for even lower output). Vibro-Champ MSRP $1,399 (MAP $999) Tremolux MSRP $2,799.99 (MAP $1,999) Twinolux MSRP $4,199.99 (MAP $2,999)

The Chicago-via-New York trio of best friends reinterpret the best bits of college-rock and ’90s indie on their new record, Phonetics On and On.

Horsegirl guitarists Nora Cheng and Penelope Lowenstein are back in their hometown of Chicago during winter break from New York University, where they share an apartment with drummer Gigi Reece. They’re both in the middle of writing papers. Cheng is working on one about Buckminster Fuller for a city planning class, and Lowenstein is untangling Austrian writer Ingeborg Bachmann’s short story, “Three Paths to the Lake.”
