Today, Fender reveals the distinctive ‘62 Deluxe Amp, an amplifier that recalls the early ‘60s of Fender’s “brown panel” amps, which bridged the gap between the raw sound of its ’50s-era tweed-covered offering and the sparkling clean tones of its mid-’60s “black panel” amps.
Known among players as hidden treasures from the early ’60s, Fender “brown panel” amplifiers are prized for bridging the gap between the raw sound of its ’50s-era tweed-covered amps and the sparkling clean tones of its mid-’60s “black panel” amps, with a distinctive sound all their own. The ’62 Deluxe Amp replicates the sound of those originals with its incredibly warm, woody clean tones and mean overdrive when cranked.
Combining that with tube-bias tremolo makes it a true desert-island amplifier. Using two 6V6 output tubes to push 20 watts through a custom-designed Celestion® 12” speaker, the ‘62 Deluxe is the perfect amp for home recording and smaller gigs and an ideal amp for Fender aficionados and collectors everywhere.
