Fender '57 Custom Deluxe Combo Amplifier - USA 2022
Pickup currently unavailable
Here is a Fender ’57 Custom Deluxe handwired combo amplifier, an exceptional reissue of one of the most sought-after tweed-era Fender designs. Built as part of Fender’s Custom Shop-inspired range, this amplifier captures the essence of the original 1950s circuit that helped define the early sound of rock and roll, blending vintage authenticity with modern reliability and craftsmanship.
At its core, the ’57 Custom Deluxe delivers a beautifully balanced tonal response, offering sparkling, dynamic clean tones that transition seamlessly into rich, complex overdrive when pushed. Its two-channel design provides a wide range of expressive possibilities, from warm, articulate cleans to the harmonically rich, touch-sensitive breakup that vintage tweed amplifiers are famous for. The result is a highly musical amplifier that responds directly to playing dynamics and guitar volume changes.
This model is handwired, reflecting a traditional point-to-point construction approach that enhances both tonal purity and serviceability. Based on the highly regarded original circuit design, it maintains the organic compression, natural sag, and midrange complexity that made the ’57 Deluxe a collector’s favourite and a studio staple. The amplifier delivers the classic Fender tweed voice that played a foundational role in shaping early rock and blues music.
This example is in near-new condition and presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a premium Fender Custom Tweed reissue at significantly less than retail pricing. It was delivered and effectively remains virtually unplayed, having only been powered on once after unboxing. As such, it retains all the tonal and physical qualities of a brand-new unit.
