I'm selling my Fender Hotrod Deluxe (because I got an Engl...). It's in excellent condition, bought new last year, has been gigged about three times and otherwise just used in rehearsals.

You can see all the spec and stuff at http://www.fender.com/products/show.php?partno=0213202

They're going for around £500 new, but I'm looking for £350.

If anyone's interested, send me a PM.

What's the drive channle like on one of those out of interest?

[jon]

It has three channels, clean, drive and more drive. It's an overdriven rather than distorted sound, but it gives a good thick tone if you push the gain up and hit more drive.

I should have said, the footswitch is included.

Sheez if I had £350 I really would snap this right up...serves me right for buying guitars and amps! :'(

He's sold it.

My opinion of the amp is that the drive channel was not created for rock, but more for blues. Even with the power amp cranked it still didn't deliver the sonic goods. Personally, I'd skip it and get something else. You'd need a good pedal to get the rock out of it.

The clean channel, however, is very very nice.

couldn't have said it better....the overdrive channels are good for slide and the like... the real appeal of this amp is the clean channel...i use a les paul through it...and get a pretty thick rich sound...the reverb is very very deep...never really used it above 4... nice amp...

Aye, the clean tones are ace, but the overdrive just wasn't enough for what we need. I actually sold it to a mate who's started a blues band, so it's gone to its spiritual home...
