Does anyone know if the line out and headphone jacks on the 1980s
Fender Champ 12 amp after the power amp section?
I know Rivera amps are, but I don't know if this is common or if
companies usually take it from after the preamp.

thanks

According to the PDF schematic, which I think is found at Mr.
Gearhead, both the line out, and the headphone jacks get their signal
from before the output tube. As I recall, it sounds like crap through
headphones. I didn't remember the one I used to have having a line
out jack. It must of though. I just remember inputs for plugging in
a CD player, and the headphone jack.

It's got a 1/4" line out and 1/4" headphone out plus the two
RCAs for tape (CD) input.

My headphone out never sounded good, and in fact mine only worked
on one channel. Didn't sound good enough to inspect as to why.

RCA input is kinda kool for a learnin' amp. I used a cheap tape
walkman for that years ago.

signal.After the output transformer
