    Fender FM 65R

    Fender FM 65RPublished on 05/15/04 at 15:00
    I was looking for a mid priced 75W combo- for home and rehersal- so as much power as can put in a small combo- i've checked the Line 6 spider 210 (75W)> great sounds- but limmited power and i just don't like pre set overdrive, the H&K Blue line 60W (nice looks-heavy overdirve and the Fender 65R- the cheapest, only 285 EURO's

    POWER!!!! This tiny machine is a real killer!!! The overdrive chanel is perfect!! The clean sound is great- almost like playing a twin reverd: what a sound

    Looks are basic

    Good Fender quality- you know that this machine will survive the next 100 years-

    Buy music gear at 270 (www.musicmatos.com) is a transistor amplifier with an equalizer 65 w traditional saturation and reverb (very low trs mm 10).
    2 input jack
    Between a direct in
    Out a direct output
    swich connection pedals (not included)
    it's really small for an amp of this power.

    UTILIZATION

    This gives a good sound very easy, no need to search two hours.

    SOUNDS

    I use it as a group is more than adequate, with a trs good clear sound, good crunch, and a saturation of some kind.
    The sound seems more powerful than a 65 w, as a group I do not Exceeds 4 in volume.
    the only BMOL is the reverb is really low trs, I do not know why.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had a month and it is really good, especially for clean sounds (it's a fender ..)
    trs good report quality price (270 nine 5-year warranty by Fender)
    trs good sound for a small budget
    hsitation I ever did without the same choice

    OVERALL OPINION

    Well, ok, it's still a small cheap amp, but frankly, the ratio quality price is perfectly fine ... and then it is lightweight, which is not dsagrable when you have to transport it from one place to another twice a week ... non frankly, it's perfectly fine ... and then it is cute as this little amp.

    Note: I have a fuse when I apt coupled two effects pedals ... well ... is easily changed, but it's not normal ...

    the rverbe exists but there is very lightweight

    Attention I am not alone! I look at later on many forums and jai encountered 4 or 5 people in my case. not very serious from fender ..

    SOUNDS

    C on this point I dcu t particularly with this amp so I v ComenC the only highlight of the sound of this amp: its power because we are surprised by the power of dlivre you push a little volume potenciometre dja ver 2-3 aspen your windows!

    For ionfo, I use a Yamaha RGX 121z
    esque sound suits my style of music?
    a fact rather non dcevant. my first marshall MG15CDR amlpis a silent, silent the sound perfectly suited to the music I played (AC / DC Hard Rock).
    jai spend several hours trying to rgler Lampl for her this type and I'm still rest trs far ...
    as I lay in di dessu, this amp is very powerful yes but the power with his rotten vulture's not nothing: the sound grows in dessu 4, type of noise nuisance or defective boom explosion heard her .. . as if the speaker does not support the power of Lampl. so you get a sound irrgulier and it is hard if you hear something that you play.
    and setting apart the more we do voi bcp Difference in volume between 5 and 10.

    OVERALL OPINION

    To conclude this amp is well within it dlivre or the sound you want and provided you do not push hard at the volume level.
    In my opinion the problem is the sound boom Bafle. so just to Rasht a more efficient and will have more ny too many problems.
    For your information I read clause of the boom chang quelqun with silent and completely satisfied with his amp in the future. after it has you DCID ...
    for this is ki Of Report quality price, it is pretty good (we do not pe s'atendre a bcp mieu to 300E)

    Fender transistor amp 65W

    UTILIZATION

    Operation is extremely simple and is obtained without any difficulty nickel sound. Anyway this is my first amp and for the price, power and sound I do not complain. Frankly dbarquer not need to know or I do not understand how to use this amp. No manual, it would in any case unnecessary.

    In fact it's made in his fender, foil and round in the acute and dry on the grave.
    The disto INTEGRATED works great, easily set and we just get even with a relatively small volume which is rather convenient.
    The reverb is fontion! but it is not noticeable with a guitar ... I hear the Russian one day by connecting a microphone and playing the harmonica ^ ^

    OVERALL OPINION

    I for 1 year. I play in groups with and push the volume 4 dj is more than enough. Only one default BMOL is annoying: the receiver stops working sometimes as if it overheated after a few hours of gameplay intensive (4 hours a background and more than 20 ^ ^), rather annoying since ca m ' group just happens (see the associated forum. Also the reverb function is ad but does not work that well! rather irritating.
    But I do not complain, it's my first amp and the price is super competitive power 260/65W, I am satisfied with TRS. For a first choice I do it again. For a regular even when I suggest an amp that does not smack after 4 hours of play especially if it is to play in groups.

    Transistor amp I got for Christmas and it irritates my parents already the same volume of 2
    -65 Watts
    Two-input jack 6.35 an effects loop and a footswitch prose
    - Two channels clean and distortion that I use most often

    UTILIZATION

    We found all the characteristic of other easy to use amp
    -Good sound in general
    I got it without a manual

    SOUNDS

    - Is starting in electric guitar (I'm 5 years of sound) I made a can in all styles with a better for punk
    "I used an Ibanez GRG 170 DXL
    "I likes the drive on the 8 trebble of 4 to 8 on the mid bass and the reverb on 8 sur4

    It's a transistor amp. Power, it says DeSUS: 65W passes through a big bowl of 30cm. The amp is not big trs, but it is heavy (guarantee of solidity ???).
    Two guitar input
    Two cranberry: a clean and saturated. Possibility to switch from one another by a footswitch (not to be mistaken for MODEL, otherwise it is tinkering ...)
    A rverbe. Finally, if you will, because I've never heard.

    UTILIZATION

    This is not an amp "taking head". One branch is Trifouille buttons until it is obtained the ITS.

    I have had with a manual. Two pages in French ... But hey, there is no effect (like reverb does not work) for the rest we dbrouille.

    SOUNDS

    I play a little bit of everything from ballads, rock, hard rock, etc. ... As it is versatile, it suits me perfectly. The sound precisely: it dpend the guitar that you put on it. I know, has appeared empty. But to use several guitars (Ibanez, Charvel and Aria) with 3 micro diffrent configs, do not be mistaken. Anything that looks like a START sounds perfectly on the clean channel, with a little crunch when you slam the strings, yum ...
    The overdrive channel is good, but rglages (including medium with slecteur) are sensitive trs.
    With the Ibanez RGT42 (2 Dimarzio pickups), the clean sound is clean but especially saturated that happiness is l. It sounds terrible. Just rgler the volume of the amp hard enough, then adjust the volume of the guitar. It really sends. The sound is prcis, powerful, can be a little cold (transistors).

    The problem of this amp is that you put watts for a ring. The family and neighbors apprcient medium, even in the house.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a year. I love this capacity to marry in a same song, sounds clean and saturated without breaking the head with a pdalier sophisticated and can use several types of guitars. What I find teacher, it is the obligation to put watts to enjoy the amp. It is of course scne in a room ...
    I had not tried other models at the time of purchase, but since I bought other amps smaller, less powerful, but I rgulirement back on it.
    The bte seems sturdy. The report quality price seems good, with a BMOL for the reverb. I know there is a version with a DSP, more expensive.
    With exprience as I'm not scne, I took a less powerful MODEL certainly lamps.

    It's been a year since I use this amp and I find it too bad, its power of 65 watts is quite enough for small gigs, more fairly compact size allows it to lug around (repeat concerts ...).

    UTILIZATION

    It is relatively simple: two channels with the basic settings, a clear channel does not saturate but loud enough (too much treble) & 1 channel saturation about right for the price.

    SOUNDS

    I use a Squier Tele and all sounds pretty good (not too extreme in styles but good) especially when you look at the total price: 620 €.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Overall this is a good amp but:

    -> Attention to the price of specific footswich Fender: 43 €! The price of the amp and the footswitch containing added that almost make the Fender 212R (which comes with footswitch).
