Fender '64 Vibroverb Custom - Custom Series

The '64 Vibroverb Custom is an all-tube, completely point-to-point, hand-wired combo amp with solid finger-jointed pine cabinet for thick, resonant tone and the unique, throaty sound of a single 15" speaker. From the front, it appears to simply be a faithful reissue of the rare and collectible 1964 Blackface Fender Vibroverb amp, with two independent channels, Reverb, Vibrato and cristal-clean tones. It is just that, but around back, a few surprise features are waiting to kick the tone into overdrive - literally.

The '64 Vibroverb Custom contains a little bit of the heart and soul of Cesar Diaz, the late great guitarist and Amp Doctor, best known for caring for the amps of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Keith Richards, Bob Dylan and others. Cesar's legendary Vibroverb modifications are easily accessible via the Mod and Rectifier switches on the rear panel. This allows the player to enjoy vintage Blackface tones perfect for many styles of music, then easily modify the amp for hot-rodded, cranked up Texas Blues tones bristling with sustain and harmonics. Other premium features include: a 15-inch Special Design Eminence speaker with full rich bass tone and enough top-end shimmer to please any guitarists, and a pair of powerful all-USA-made GT-6L6-GE tubes.

Fender '57 Twin Amp - Custom Series

The '57 Twin Amp, one of the most collectible amps of all time, is the latest member of Fender highly acclaimed Custom Series amplifier family. It's an all-tube combo amp with point-to-point, hand-wired circuitry and premium components. Fender reproduced the 1955-57 edition low powered 5E8A circuit, which produces 40 watts into a pair of 12" Alnico-magnet speakers. The Twin's harmonically rich clean tones and great for authentic vintage rock, blues, and country playing, when cranked up, the Twin Amp's fat, sophisticated distortion tone works wonderfully in many modern musical situations.
The '57 Twin Amp gets its power from a pair of new USA-made GT-6L6-GE output tubes. The power supply includes Fender's rarely seen mid-50's dual rectifier arrangement, which uses two 5U4 rectifier tubes. Whit this design, power amp compression or sag is subtler than it is in many Fender Tweed designs. The Twin's preamp contains four high-gain 12AX7 tubes, three of which may be substituted with 12AY7's for the original '50s low-gain sound, if desired. Fender also added an internal bias pot, allowing easy substitution of various 6L6 types. Control panel details include: Normal and Bright volumes, four inputs (two Normal, two Bright), Treble, Bass and Presence knobs.
The '57 Twin's finger-joined solid pine cabinet resonates with a warm, woody tone. The amp is covered in genuine Lacquered Tweed, and the visually striking package is topped off with vintage brown/gold grille cloth and a leather strap handle. Fitter cover is included.
