Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The Deluxe Reverb is one of Fender's most recorded and sought-after amps due to its balance of clarity, dynamics, and musicality. In 1968, Fender gave it a distinctive visual identity with the silver faceplate and "silverface" styling, which became iconic. The 68 Custom Deluxe Reverb pays homage to this legacy while subtly modernizing the experience: it retains the vintage DNA (reverb, tremolo, tone) but offers a more flexible approach thanks to a redesigned second channel and a circuit that better responds to playing dynamics and pedals.
Who This Amp Is For
This combo is aimed at intermediate to professional guitarists seeking an inspiring tube amp, equally relevant in studio, rehearsal, or on small to medium stages (with mic reinforcement if needed). It excels in styles where playing dynamics matter: blues, vintage rock, country, surf, indie, funk, and pop. Its rich and articulate clean tone also makes it an excellent foundation for a pedalboard, whether you play sparkling cleans, light crunch, or use external overdrive/distortion pedals.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Fender 68 Custom Deluxe Reverb powerful enough for playing in a band?
With its 40 W all-tube power and 12-inch Celestion G12V-70 speaker, this combo is designed for rehearsal and small to medium venues. Miking the amp can be considered when more volume is needed.

Can a pedalboard be used with this Fender amp?

Two 6.35 mm jack speaker outputs wired in parallel are available, for an 8-ohm impedance.
What is the weight and which accessories are included?
The unit weighs 19.1 kg and measures 445 x 241 x 622 mm. A Vintage two-button footswitch is included to turn the reverb and vibrato on or off. The cabinet is made of birch and pine.
