Description

The Fender DELUXE 112 PLUS amplifier is a straight-ahead combination of radical new distortion sounds and time-tested Classic Fender Sounds packaged together in a Solid-State configuration, which is both easy to use and inherently reliable. The DELUXE 112 PLUS NORMAL Channel feature the standard compliment of VOLUME, TREBLE, MID, and BASS controls. The DRIVE Channel features GAIN, VOLUME, and a separate EQ consisting of CONTOUR, TREBLE, and BASS controls. The almost unlimited combinations of the GAIN and CONTOUR controls will vary your sound from smooth and bluesy to a honky bite or all the way to ten for the crunchiest sounds around. You get searing smooth highs backed by deep punch. The TREBLE and BASS controls gives you continuous adjustment of the highs and lows, allowing the DELUXE 112 PLUS to be the perfect compliment to your individual playing style. In addition to convenient features like All Front Panel Mounted Controls, the DELUXE 112 PLUS features a detachable footswitch for selecting the DRIVE Channel and REVERB. Standard 1/4- inch phone jacks are used for ease of connection or extension of the footswitch to remote pedal boards. The PREAMP OUT & POWER AMP IN jacks can be used as an effects loop or as Send and Return points while slaving multiple amps together or for direct connection to recording and sound reinforcement mixers. The possibilities are endless (eg: by inserting a Chorus pedal between the PREAMP OUT of one amp and the POWER AMP IN of another, a true stereo image effect can be achieved). Last but definitely not least, the Fender DELUXE 112 PLUS packs a new power amp that is based on a radically underdamped design that interacts with the speaker in much the same way as a tube amplifier does, producing sparkle and punch with an increase in apparent loudness and power that defies comparison to other similarly rated units Also included is a sophisticated, transparent protection scheme designed to completely prevent amplifier failure due to bad speaker cords or incorrectly connected speaker jacks. This amp is LOUD and can reliably put it out, night after night. The selection of a Fender amplifier will reward you with years of quality music in a wide range of controlled sounds. This manual is designed to familiarize you with the equipment and to acquaint you with its many fine features. Read it carefully so that you will benefit from all the features as soon as you start using the amplifier. The built-in quality of a Fender amplifier is the result of over three and a half decades of dedication in the combined skills of research and development by our engineers and musicians. That is why we proudly say... FENDER, The Sound That Creates Legends.

Way better than you think!

For a solid state amp this thing has no business sounding this good! I absolutely love it. The gain Chanel leaves a little to be desired but the clean Channel is everything you want from much more expensive Fender Combo amps. The speaker is amazing and a real spring tank. This thing is an unknown jewel!

Good

The drive channel is a little muddy, but the cleans are beautiful and the built-in reverb is sweet

Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue 1x12 Combo Amplifier

$1,450.00 - $1,839.00

high-end alternative

The Fender Delux 112 Plus is trying to achieve '65 delux tones in a solid state format. It pretty much nails the clean tones but the overdrive Chanel leaves a little to be desired.
