About this listing
I am offering a Fender ’57 Custom Deluxe from 2020, a manufactured in Corona, California (USA), handwired reissue model of the ’57 Deluxe tube combo from the Custom Series featuring (powerful!) 12 watts of power, point-to-point wired 5E3 circuit, 12" Jensen Special Design Alnico speaker, and Instrument & Mic channels each with two inputs, in a classic '50s lacquered Tweed finish with period-correct oxblood front grille cloth and elegant leather carrying handle, in excellent condition, including a brown dust cover.The Fender Deluxe tube amplifiers from the 1950s are among the most sought-after vintage amplifiers of all time—simply because they respond incredibly well and sound so good when turned up full blast. The ’57 Deluxe Custom features warm lows with plenty of clarity in the highs, yet the sound never becomes shrill—it’s incredibly rich with plenty of overdrive, making the amp sound just like the best gear from back in the day. With just 12 watts of output power, this Fender '57 Custom Deluxe also breaks up at exactly the right volume, making the amp ideal for live performances and recording.The Fender '57 Custom Deluxe sounds great at low volumes and delivers clear, clean tones. But as soon as the volume knob goes past the 12 o’clock position, the amp sings with hearty sustain and that classic power-amp distortion.The entire amplifier is handwired with incredible attention to detail and responds effortlessly to every nuance of playing, different pickup positions, and control settings. Operation is intuitively simple, and despite the uncluttered layout of controls, the combo can be coaxed into producing a wide range of sounds.A sound sample of the model can be found above at the end of the photo gallery.So if you’re looking for a high-end workhorse with a great vintage sound and authentic look, this is the complete package!Technical Specifications:Origin: Corona, CA, USAYear of Manufacture: 2020Series: Fender ’57 CustomPower: 12 wattsTubes: 1x 12AY7 and 1x 12AX7 (preamp), 2x 6V6 (power amp) with 5Y3 rectifier tubeSpeaker: 1x 12" Jensen Special Design Alnico SpeakerOriginal 5E3 circuit with “Yellow Capacitors” and Mercury Magnetics transformersPoint-to-point handwiringChannels: 2 (MIC / Instrument, each with two inputs)Controls: Tone, Instrument Volume, Mic VolumeKnobs: Black Chicken Head KnobsFinish: TweedFront grille: OxbloodHandle: Brown leatherWeight: 11.8kgSerial No.: AB025151Includes brown dust coverThe amp is in excellent, extremely well-maintained condition and works flawlessly.
