Fender Blues Deville and Stratocaster

Tom Kaminski — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:04:56 GMT

From www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Fender Blues DeVille 410 is based on the 50's Bassman amp, but with channel switching and reverb. 4 Eminence Alnico 10" speakers bustin out 60 watts of tube fury make the Fender Blues DeVille 410 a blues and rock juggernaut. As Andy shows in the video, the Blues Deville is the perfect match for a Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster. Blues and Rock will never be the same when you line up a Fender Strat and the Fender Blues DeVille 410!

The Fender Blues Deville 410 is a reissue of the Fender Tweed Series introduced in 1993. Since its inception, the Fender Blues Deville has won many hearts and ears with its full, warm blues tone and perfectly balanced overdrive channel. The Bright switch on the clean channel gives the Blues Deville some bite and twang for solos or country tones. When pushed hard, the clean channel overdrives in a smooth, tight manner that is perfect for crunchy rhythm work. The dirty channel provides just enough 12AX7 drive to sear in some leads and chunk up the rhythm section at lower volumes. With a Groove Tube 6L6 driven power section the Fender Blues Deville delivers 60 watts of smooth power into 4 Eminence Alnico speakers for that classic Fender tone.

Fender Hot Rod Deluxe and Stratocaster

Tom Kaminski — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 15:02:31 GMT

From www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Fender Hot Rod Deluxe is the classic hard-gigging, working man's combo amplifier. 40 Watts of classic 6L6 tube tone that always gets the job done and never lets you down. The Fender Hot Rod Deluxe is a serious tone tool for the common guitar player. Andy makes this Hot Rod Deluxe Scream with his Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster Relic. With the Hot Rod Deluxe and a Stratocaster, the gigging musician can play anything from dirty blues to rock and still come out in front of the mix.

The Fender Hot Rod Deluxe was designed to meet the needs of todays working guitarist. The clean channel yields traditional, sparkly Fender clean tones with bite and punch. When pushed up to the breaking point, the overdrive is spanky and tight with rich harmonic content and dynamic control. The Hot Rod Deluxe overdrive channel yields warm, creamy overdrive reminiscent of Texas blues and southern rock. When pushed into More Drive, the saturation gets thicker and the overdrive starts to sing a song of sustaining leads and rockin rhythms. Fender designed the Hot Rod Deluxe to meet demanding specifications, the first of which is versatility. Todays modern working guitarists need an amp they can rely on for many different applications and the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe is that amp.
