Fender Deluxe 112 Plus

Bought it from Sam Ash Music in 1999. 94 WATTS, 12" Fender Special Design Speaker, Dual Inputs, Dual Selectable Channels - Clean and Drive, Accutronics Reverb, Effects Loop, Headphones Jack, Independent Tone Controls and Gain, Contour and Reverb Controls. Weight: 33 lbs. ? Size: 16.5"high x 20.75"wide x 9"deep.

TIME TESTED CLASSIC FENDER SOUNDS COMBINED WITH A DRIVE CHANNEL THAT IS TOTALLY AWESOME. I owned this amp for a year and just thought it was an overpowered little monster. Then I got out my Les Paul Custom one day and rolled everything back and was amazed at the quality sounds that could be obtained. I play a lot of different styles using either the Paul, an Am. Standard Strat or Tele and this amp is versatile. It sounds great, has lots of power if you need it, and delivers the sound you want as this is a very controllable amp. Channel 1) Clean channel - controls for treble, bass, mid, and volume; Channel 2) Distortion/Drive channel - controls for treble, bass, drive (how much distortion in the sound), contour (the "shape" of the distortion sound), and volume. Dial in the right amount of reverb and you got it. The footswitch controls the channel select (ALSO HAS A CHANNEL SELECT BUTTON ON THE FRONT PANEL) and the Reverb.

Fenders have a good reputation and with this amps solid state circuitry, it should last a lifetime.

Has a 5 year warranty. Never have needed it.

I bought this amp to fill the gap between a Fender Tweed Bronco and a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Trem-O-Verb. I wanted to get a good sound and save a couple of hundred dollars.

2 channels, clean and dirty. built in reverb. 90w all solid state 1x12 combo.

My setup is a Yamaha Pacifica->Crybaby(once i get it fixed)->mesa bottle rocket->deluxe 112 plus

the clean is about as good as solid state clean gets. it sounds kinda sterile but it is useable(i would give it a 7). the distortion, as perviously noted is awful(i would give it a 1), but that is expected. i only use the clean and i usualy dont have to turn anything past 2, even though as you go up from there all it does is get a discustingly distorted.

With the bottle rocket this thing sings, i cant wait to try it with a fender twin reverb reissue i plan to get soon. if you get this amp prepare to get a good distortion pedal.

the reverb on here is great although i usually only want a tad of it in my overall sound.

it is reliable, ive had it for years, not sure how many though. giged with it at least 6 times and move it from my bedroom to different rehersal spaces twice a week. this thing has had a few notable incidents of user neglect(not to the point of dropping just bumps and a few hard landings here and there) but still looks new.

never dealt with them. dont assume they would be too helpful though

this amp is great although 90 watts really is a lie sounds more like 60 to me. with the right pedals this amp does sing. it does not have tube warmth but it is enough to get by.

i am not including the dirty channel in any way when i say this amp sounds good, the distortion is one of the worst sounding garbage ive ever heard.

This amp is pretty old. It came with a 2 button foot box and it has 2 channels. the usual features...

the tone is pretty good until you really crank it up. then it rattles like a snake. the counter to that is its LOUD. L. O. U. D.

beat it up pretty good. it has some bruises from when it fell out of a car. stands up i'd say. survived some college time. there are 2 inputs, input 1 has always been broke.

no idea.

not bad, could be better. its a throwaround portable amp. could be a bit less heavy. my biggest peave is the volume is huge but the sound deteriorates as the volume increases.

I have no clue when this amp was made to be honest.I don't think it is a very bad amp per say but It is extremely loud.I just use it at home for the time being seeing as though I am just begining to play again.The reverb is nice.

The distortion sounds extremely fake and 1 dimensional when cranked.I like the amp, its just that I cant seem to find any decent settings but that reverb is nice though.I currently play a telecaster through it but sometimes I get an extremely loud buzzy sound when I add any tone.When I play certain melodies,I also get pops and fizzes.Damn,how annoying.If you know of any settings,friends......please,I beg you to email me.

I am afraid sometimes to even turn it on and it is so loud.I am sure it is dependable though,I hope.

I would love it more if I could get some better sounds.Some variety would be nice.So far I can only get a semi-decent bluesy sound out of it.

Mon ampli fender a ete fait en 1995, 2 channels, 1 12" avec 90watt RMS. Juste un probleme on peut pas choisir de selectionner le reverb dans le channel qu'on veut, j'ai eu un fender twin, je l'ai vendu parce que j'avais vraiment besoin$$$ pi criss jregret..., pi j'avais cette fonction pi jpense que c'est vraiment pratique de l'avoir. Y'a aussi le ptit criss de piton sur le panel pour changer channel il pourrait etre mieux placer et egalement le piton du volume du cote de la disto, pourquoi l'avoir mit la?? Je l'aurais mit a droite completement! Si tu teste cette ampli tu va me comprendre parce que lorsque tu toune les boutons du volume entre 0 et 1 esti attache toi on dirait l'ampli vomit d'une claque toute sa puissance. Les boutons des volumes sont trop SENSIBLE pi j'hais vraiment ca. A part ca j'apprecis vraiment les controle...

Je joue avec une Jackson Charvel USA, pick up actif, j'ai changer mon pick up double pour un Seymour Duncan JBmodel (10/10). Le style que je joue est du vieux rock: iron maiden, AC/DC, Rush. Le nouveau rock: papa roach, system of a down. Punk: bad religion, At the drive in. La raison pour laquel je lui donne un 8 est parce que au dela de 5 sur le clean l'amplie commence a disatorsionner un peu trop et ce meme avant. Avec mon twin je le mettais a fond pi pas problem. Le son du clean je le trouve vraiment parfait et quand tu ajuste ton tone bin au moins tentend une bonne difference de son. La disto de l'amplie sonne vraiment vieille disto moi j'utilise un boss metal zone MT2 pi ca fait ben la JOB. Oublier ca pour jouer avec un drum ya jamais assez puissance pour s'dechainner...

J'ai juste eu un problem avec le transfo, les vis se devisais pi un transfo qui vibre laisse moi dire que ton ampli y chit pi pas a peu pres. Donc ya fallu que je change les vis du transfo pi apres ca jai jamais retoucher au vis. SI ta a faire cette job va s'y poliment en autant l'amplie du box et en le remettant le genre de papier d'aluminium qu'il on mit ben y vient avec et quand tu remet l'ampli bin c'est la que ten sacre un coup tellement que j'ai batit une eglise.

I'm actually scared to use this amp. Usually every time I turn it on, I get that enormously painful "POPPPP!!!!!!!" blast. I can't really play with it unless I turn everything on the amp and my guitar down to zero before turning it on. It's fucking noisy as hell, buzzing n' clacking n' stuff. My guitar is great, it's a 1972 Custom Telecaster, so it's not the guitar's fault.

As many have said, the distortion sucks. I just got a V-Wah Boss Pedal, with all different types of distortion in it....so I think I'll use that from now on rather than fucking around with running the risk of losing my hearing from all the goddamn popping.

When it's not aurally abusing you, it sounds nice. The clean reverb is nice. Blah blah, it's not worth it I say.

After all the times it's sounded like it was about to blow....it hasn't. I fucking wish it would have :) Again, very rare to get it so that it doesn't blow your fucking ears off.

never once.

i rock the casbah...i just need a better amp! :)(

90w solid state, 2 footswitchable channels, reverb, 1x12 combo. Nothing fancy but it has everything I need.

I use a standard Fender strat through this amp with a Crybaby and a Boss OD-3. I usually play anything from blues to hard rock, I guess AC/DC is most indicative of my average style. This amp does that pretty well. For the first two years I had it I struggled to find a good sound with it but the other day my buddy asked me if I bought a tube amp. I don't think it sounds *THAT* good but it's still saying alot about what this solid state amp can do. I can come very close to matching Angus or Page tones with it. It's not exactly a metal machine though for all you metalheads. The Drive channel isn't noisy unless you crank the Gain to 9 or 10, in which case you're probably trying to play metal with this amp, and as I said, shame on you if you are. The Clean channel ONLY sounds good if I use the neck pickup on my Strat, but when I do it sounds VERY good. With only a small shimmer from my OD-3 added to the signal, this channel sounds great for some blues. It has a really full sound if you play with it. On the whole this amp isn't going to offer up amazing tone to the faint-hearted. You really have to play with it to get it to sound right, but once you tame the beast it's gonna play you back in spades. Oh, by the way I play with a bunch of guys who like to turn their shit up LOUD and this amp keeps up with them just fine.

I've been playing it on average 5 hours a day for the past 4 years. Never had any problems. I'd trust it with my life.

Never had to deal with Fender.

I've been playing for 4 years by myself and with a band and this amp does everything I need it to that suits my pretty bare-bones style. If it were lost or stolen I might go and buy a 4x12 amp just to try that out for awhile but I'm not in a hurry to get rid of this amp. It's served me well. The only thing that bugs me is the sensitivity of the volume knob, but when this amp gets turned up past 5 the distortion sounds GREAT so long as you're not flogging the gain like Dimebag Darrell or something.

I don't konow the year,sorry,this amp has suited my style, METAL (only) for 6months or so,cheap to, 250 irish punts. it has two channels distortion and clean.gain , contour, treble , bass on dist. and mid treble and bass on clean, each channel has a volume , (a master woulad have been nice)i dont use clean alot though. i use this in my bedroom practiceing at home only uaed it in a band for a while and it came over the other instruments but never played live.alright features but lacking crunch.

useing a squire strat at moment which doesnt suit my means at all! but.. on a low volume(1-3) on the gain channel i get a pretty decent metal tone , metallica , slayer etc. do this by turning everything on to 10 (no reverb obviously)Im getting a jackson rr3 soon and that should beef up the drive channel a bit.its noisey with my stereo on and hums while i put in a distortion pedal on drive channel.clean is great , a great variety in tones but i dont use it unless of writing or playing light intros eg. fade to black. distortion sucks at a higher volume though and ill need to get a boss metal zone or something.

after 2 weeks of having the amp the speaker blew! i got a celestian speaker now and its a shit lot louder. I got the replacement under gaurentee.

N/A

I own a marshall guv'nor pedal. if it were lost or stolen id buy a decent tube amp to get a real metal tone and forget this.i wish it had a mid control on drive channel , that could help.

90 watts through a 12 inch speaker. There is a clean channel which i never use, and a reverb knob which i very rarely use. But I'm not a guitar player who needs a lot of effects or other junk, if i were i doubt i'd be happy with it's versatility.

I play in a large blues band(10 piece, with a 4 piece horn section), as well as classic rock cover bands and original music. I play through an Epiphone dot(335 knock-off with gibson humbuckers that are really hot!), as well as a Dano DC3. I only use the distortion channel, never turning the gain knob above 1 or 2, and i get a killer Angus/ stones "brown sugar" tone from this amp with the epi. When i first got the amp, i didn't care for it that much. It sounded too fendery playing a strat thru it. But a few monthes later i got a killer guitar with humbuckers and realized i could get a great AC/DC tone thru this amp! Very odd and amazing. I've played out constantly the past year, using only this amp in small places as well as outdoor festivals. Our other guitarist plays a gibson les paul thru a Harry Joyce and a marshall 4 by 12, and i think our live sounds are pretty well matched. He could blow me off the stage volume-wise obviously, but we aren't a really loud band and i've rarely turned it up past 6(and then, only outdoors) I agree that the distortion is junk, but if you keep the gain knob down to 1 or 2, you can get a great dirty guitar sound out of it. I get nothing but compliments from other guitar players who are amazed at the tone i get from a solid state amp.

it's never broken down, even after taking a couple of falls. It's built like a tank.

I've been playing for 15 years, and i like getting a good value for my money. I don't use alot of effects, i actually use no effects on stage except for a rat pedal to give a volume boost for solos. This amp is perfect for me, i don't have to worry about hurting it, i don't have to see it as a lifetime investment. It fits my style of music and it's volume is very loud for such a little amp. It is perfect for clubs. It helps to have a great sounding guitar, as well. I find i can create a similiar sound to the bands i love with it. BUT never turn the gain up past 2, if you need more distortion, get a GOOD pedal.

Just read the reviews under mine, I dont want to keep repeating all that.

Distortion sucks, thats all im gonna say on that. But cleans can sound great depending on the type of guitar you have and how you mess with the e.q. At first I thought this amp just sucked, but then I got the Boss e.q., screwed around with it, and got a pretty good sound out of it. I have an Ibanez rg770, with an Invader bridge pick up in it(not exactly a set up designed for blues) but if you mess with the settings you can get a lot of diferent sounds with it. For distortion I use the boss turbo distorion ds-2. If you like greenday, nofx, or pennywise,pretty much anything punk influenced, this is a good combonation.

I dont gig. But ive had it a little under a year and it hasnt died yet.

Like I said never used it live, but for bed room playing its pretty good. And it was pretty cheap.
