About the amp

The 1482 is probably the most popular of the whole series. It uses two 6v6 power tubes in a push/pull configuration to deliver 15 watts of power through a 12″ Fisher speaker.

The two 12ax7s power the preamp while a 6au6 powers the tremolo circuit.

This was the only amp in the series with a vertically mounted chassis. This amp is often compared to the brown face Fender Deluxe however it’s a completely different amplifier from a tonal point of view. It’s voiced slightly darker and breaks up a bit earlier than a Deluxe.
