1968 was a transition year for Fender amps, with a sound that was still pure Fender but a whole new look. With a silver and turquoise front panel and "drip" aluminum grille fabric trim, the deluxe reverb was given a new face while remaining the ideal recording and performance amp. Small, light and moderately powered, it produces a big tube, with world-class Fender reverb and vibrato effects. For countless guitarists since, the Deluxe Reverb has been the go-to amp for the classic Fender sound.
The Deluxe 68 custom reverb amp pays homage to the classic look, sound and performance of the "silverface" amps of the late '60s. In a special twist, both channels offer reverb and tremolo, and the "custom" channel has a modified Bassman tone stack that gives modern players greater tonal flexibility with pedals. The amp also offers faster gain and reduced negative feedback for greater touch sensitivity. The single 12-inch Celestion G12V-70 Custom Deluxe Reverb 68 speaker also offers a more distinctive rock'n'roll flavor.
