For over 30 years, the Fender® Hot Rod Deluxe™ has been the quintessential backline amplifier on stages and in studios around the world. Renowned for its legendary Fender clean tones, dedicated overdrive channels, and exceptional performance as a pedal platform, it remains a trusted choice for players of every style.
The Hot Rod Deluxe™ 30th Anniversary amplifier celebrates the legacy of this modern classic with a limited-edition version of the 40-watt road warrior that looks as stunning as it sounds.
This commemorative model features distinctive Black Western covering paired with vintage ’50s brown and gold grille cloth, a polished stainless steel faceplate, and classic black chicken head knobs. A Celestion® 12" G12M-65 Creamback speaker delivers warm, detailed response, while modified preamp circuitry enhances overdriven note definition and a refined spring reverb provides smoother ambience.
Housed in a lightweight pine cabinet and fitted with a premium leather handle, this amplifier is built for both performance and portability. Each unit includes a 2-button footswitch, protective cover, and a certificate of authenticity.
