Description
An updated version of the legendary amplifier that has been the heart of many a guitarist’s rig, the Hot Rod Deluxe IV features modified preamp circuits, a smoother spring reverb and improved aesthetics that any player is sure to appreciate. A supercharged amp with features the guitarist wants, this 40-watt 1×12″ combo is ideal for guitarists who need hot power and performance to spare.
The Hot Rod Deluxe IV features a 12″ Celestion A-Type driver for a well-balanced output with smooth highs, supple mids and full, round bass. The modified preamp circuit improves the definition of overloaded notes, so you’ll get an articulate sound no matter how hard you push this amp. The built-in spring reverb has been modified to add smoothness, so you always get a rich, shimmering sound, no matter how much reverb you use. Updated aesthetics include a lightweight pine cabinet, improved control panel graphics and texture, ivory pointer knobs, a reinforced steel handle and a lightly aged silver fabric grille, giving it the unmistakable look and feel that only a Fender amp can provide. Reliable, flexible and easy to pedal, the Hot Rod Deluxe IV is an ideal addition to any collection of amps for electric guitarists.
