Fender Deluxe Reverb II

Just about the most classic Fender amplifier that has ever been created. Fender has had quite a few solid amps such as the Blackface, bassman, Twin Reverb, and modern Hot Rod amps. This is one on the level as those classic amps that have rock n roll ingrained into the dna.

This amp is so colorful and rich with tonal flavor. It makes is hard to think about music without an amp such as this one. The tone that this contains coupled with a nice tubescreamer type pedal is just glorious.



UTILIZATION

This amp is not hard to figure out at all. The front panel is easy to read and if you have spent 10 minutes with this amp you will be able to dial it in to get a good quick usable tone. There is two inputs and these are for high and low sensitivity or output brilliance.

The amp seems too easy sometimes and I wish they had a little bit more features but that is Fender. They stick to the classic look and the classic features from the days of old. The will probably continue to do it this way since this is the age of vintage amplifiers to be highly sought after. This gets people in the door with the new price.


SOUNDS

Glassy, chimey, sparkling cleans shimmering with tone dripping for days are all words to describe the nature of a winning amp for decades. The tone with this amp will leave you satisfied but ready for more. Try this amp out with a nice Fender Stratocaster and you will hear the combination that this amp was made and voiced for.

This amp has so much potential and all you need is some creativity for style and you will have a killer tone that will rival most professionals. Add a nice analog delay to the mix and couple that with the reverb channel and there you;ll have a sweet rich ambient tone that will give more creativity that you can dream of .

OVERALL OPINION

These amps are not being produced anymore and will only be found on the used market. I have no idea what these amps are going for in this market, bet you can get one cheap.

I would recommend this amp to any guitar player who needs probably the best clean tone in existence. The versatility of this amp is really endless. It doesn't have much to get in the way of the tone with just a few control knobs and a second channel for a reverb feature. This is a great classic amplifier.

This is a MODEL trs rare, mine in 1983.

Trs complete, just missing an effects loop (a good hacker can amp you a letter)

UTILIZATION

Fender sound with a distortion California real bonus!

Excellent, and "breakup" trs cool for 6.

SOUNDS

I use it for all styles of music, it's really gnial.

OVERALL OPINION

HUGE! The amp in my life (I had to find a package with the l!).

If you find a Do not hesitate one second!

Caution It is not that of the above foto!

Here the detailed technical ( http://www.ampwares.com/ffg/deluxe_reverb_II.html )
Deluxe Reverb 2, 1983
Amp 22 watt lamps while
2 lamps 6V6GTA power
3 Preamp 7025
1hp 12 fender
20 kg

2 inputs face: low and high
2 channels
- Clear channel: volume 1 1 1 treble bass. So there is no adjustment for clear sound in mids but that does not interfere at all. Lower bass and treble means strengthening the mediums for this type of amp.
The volume knob is switchable in bright
- Saturated channel: a volume, a gain, a master equa TREB mid bass. it has a setting equalizer per channel.

Button mid saturated channel is switchable to boost medium (mid). It's almost a third channel so it can be felt on the sound!

For a 2 channel and a reverb knob presence

Connections:
1 output for a speaker of 8 ohms
A line out to record directly to a console
A footswitch input to start the reverb, Like to go to the clean channel saturated
1 input 1 output dedicated to the connection of the spring reverb

We see that this amp fender made in order to restore the original deluxe reverb: all the modern options are included (channel saturated, boost the mids, double equa, connectivity, presence)

UTILIZATION

The configuration is simpler than a modeling amp.
But the two channels and a half of the boost button and the presence mediums require time to be adjusted properly.

Even if it turns out we get very strong still sound good at low volume. We can play in your room instead of a Vox AC30. But of course, is when the lamps are pushed you can feel the grain appear fender. The EQ is very efficacaces and we have a good sound quickly turning instinctively few buttons.

SOUNDS

The clean sound is masterful. The bright switch makes wonder. The equalization responds really well.
It is a crystal clear sound if it (at least with my les paul special), a little dirty. The mediums fart as only amp lights can do.
The more one grows the more natural compression of the sound is musical.

Side boosted channel EQ SETTINGS and combination volume / gain / master offer ample opportunities for her, the slight crunch to saturated (but not without its metal pedals!)
The button responds very well to the presence or écalircir make the sound more present.

As against that of the reverb is very sensitive, the effect is not progressive. Attention to the tact not to drown in all this reverb. This is a reverb to the previous spring, that resonates long. I confess to being a little disappointed with this one. I think another reverb plug on it because the connection allows me

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since 2004
It's a versatile amp despite its reputation
The reverb was disappointed. For example, the reverb of the hot rod deluxe seemed better
This is an amp that is connected to the pedals regia. Combined with a Sansamp palette of sounds is huge.
The overdrive sound is not bad but probably prefer there be a good pedal, and the channel will be used for saturated crunch or clean sounds a little boosted
I got it for € 650 the price of a hot rod!

This is an amp that is used mainly for clear sound all the same.
Obviously I do it again this choice.
