'59 BASSMAN
"There are other fine amplifiers with legions of devotees, but for many players, Fender's big, square
tweed box with the uncluttered control panel is the ultimate tone machine."
Tom Wheeler, The Soul of Tone

'63 REVERB
"Mr. Fender's development of his reverberation circuit was similar to many of his contributions, in
that he drew upon existing concepts and adapted them in new ways to create products that not only
met the requirements of the musicians of the day but also inspired new sounds and techniques."
Tom Wheeler, The Soul of Tone

'65 SUPER REVERB

"The nice thing about my Super is up until around 3 it stays clean, trebly and biting, but warm
at the same time. From 3 on, it thickens out very gradually. All the way up to 10, it's very thick,
and it retains that percussiveness."
Nils Lofgren, The Soul of Tone

'65 TWIN REVERB

"The Twin's normal and vibrato channels pump out some of the richest, sweetest tones any amp
has ever delivered ... The bass response at high volume will punch you in the stomach, while it's
a brave person who winds up the treble and presence on one of these."
Guitarist magazine, The Soul of Tone

'65 PRINCETON REVERB

"I went to Trans-Maximus Studios in Memphis with Steve Cropper. Jeff Beck recorded some of his
best stuff there. They had a little Princeton Reverb up on a table, and an old Shure microphone
stuck in front of it, and all the knobs were cranked all the way up. Jeff was using a Stratocaster
back then, and you can really hear the sound of that amp."
Seymour Duncan, The Soul of Tone

'65 DELUXE REVERB

"The original is something of a touchstone among players of all ages and styles
(it seems we've all used and loved a Deluxe Reverb at one time or another),
and after more than a decade, the reissue remains a staple of Fender's line."
Tom Wheeler, The Soul of Tone

Who knows who it was, why he did it, or where or when? Hard to
say. It was probably in a rowdy roadhouse in Bakersfield or some
place like that. What we do know is that some unknown guitarist
appropriated his bass players amp for some reason, thus
discovering that the sturdy 4x10 Fender Bassman, while a fine
bass amp, also happened to be a real beauty of a guitar amp.
If youve ever cranked one up, you know. Its still true today.

VINTAGE REISSUE 63

When surf music ruled the ocean waves and the airwaves
in the early 60s, many a Jazzmaster and Jaguar guitar
was plugged into a mysterious little box called the Fender
Reverb, often seen perched atop a blonde Showman amp.
Nobody knew exactly how it worked, but no matterplugged
into any amp, it drenched guitar tone in soaking wet reverb
and put the very roar of the Pacific itself into surf music.

classic that delivers all the prized tone, dynamics, power
and versatility of the original in an affordable and roadworthy
reissue that absolutely sparkles with authentic Fender sound
and style. Make it your own.
Also shown: the '65 Twin Custom 15, for players who want the

The legendary Fender Princeton Reverb Amp of the 1960s was

small, light, and moderately powered. Though originally intended
for practice situations, the Princeton was capable of big tube tone,
and countless guitarists chose it as their go-to studio amp. With
a simple micd-up Princeton and a stomp box or two, signature
sounds flowed onto recording after recording. Our world-class
Reverb and built-in Vibrato effects were the icing on the cake.
