Fender '57 Custom Deluxe 1 x 12" Guitar Combo Amplifier

Few names in music history carry the weight and influence of Fender amplifiers. Since the late 1940's, Fender’s designs have shaped the sound of blues, rock, country, and beyond, delivering touch-sensitive dynamics and unmistakable warmth that players still crave today. The handwired Fender ’57 Custom Deluxe continues this legendary legacy, reviving the iconic 5E3 tweed circuit that defined an era of tone and remains one of the most sought-after designs in vintage amplification.

The ’57 Custom Deluxe is built around a faithful recreation of the original 5E3 circuit, prized for its early breakup, natural compression, and highly interactive controls. Updated with refined volume pot tapers for smoother low-volume adjustments, this amp effortlessly transitions from shimmering cleans to harmonically rich overdrive. Premium yellow coupling capacitors are carefully selected to deliver authentic Fender tone, balancing sparkling highs, warm mids, and a smooth, creamy top end.

At its core, the amp runs 12 watts of power from a pair of 6V6 tubes, with a 5Y3 rectifier tube ensuring the classic sag and touch sensitivity players expect from a vintage tweed amp. A single 12-inch Eminence Special Design alnico speaker completes the circuit, projecting the unmistakable chime, growl, and dynamic response that has inspired generations of guitarists.

True to its roots, the ’57 Custom Deluxe is housed in a lacquered tweed cabinet with a top-mounted control panel with classic chickenhead knobs for easy stage or studio use. Every detail reflects Fender’s commitment to historical accuracy while offering the durability and reliability modern players demand.

Whether you’re chasing sparkling cleans, raw tweed crunch, or that unmistakable touch-sensitive response, the Fender ’57 Custom Deluxe is more than just an amplifier—it’s a continuation of the timeless tube tone that built the foundation of modern music.
