Rivera Stage IV 1x12 Combo Amplifier

DescriptionOne amp that defined the LA and Nashville Studio Sound of the 1970’s and into the ‘80s was a modified by Paul Rivera Fender Deluxe Reverb. Now, Rivera has built this amp to celebrate the legendary tones recorded by illustrious artists for our 35th Anniversary. Introducing the Rivera Stage IV.

Stage IV was the ultimate modification level for Fender and Marshall amplifiers; it gave top players advanced features like channel switching, active effects loops with level controls, and other key innovations that were previously unavailable in tube amps. Eventually, Fender came knocking.  After it hired Paul, many of the ideals embodied in his modified amps became the foundation for the Rivera era of Fender amps in the 1980s.  Amps like the Super Champ are considered by many to be the most collectible and appreciated of modern Fender amplifiers. Factory production of Rivera amps began shortly after Paul’s departure from Fender. Rivera Amplification now proudly celebrates its 35th year in business by releasing the Rivera Stage IV.
