About the Fender HotRod Deluxe and Deluxe Mk111.

The Hot Rod Deluxe is a 40-watt single 12″ combo-the standard for gigging guitarists worldwide. It is famous for the low-end headroom characteristic of 6L6 tubes and a versatile all-ECC83(12AX7) tube preamp.

It also boasts luscious Fender spring reverb, an effects loop and more.

So Fender approaches its series effects loop with two jacks titled Preamp Out and Power Amp In. Think of them as send and return respectively. You haven’t heard clean until you’ve heard it from a 6L6-equipped Fender amp! So, short of the hand-wired Custom stuff, this is as good a place as any to get it.

The Deluxe III’s normal channel has all the shimmer to make single-coils sparkle. The room-filling bass, coupled with the slightly scoopy mid-range that completes this sound.
