Fender Acoustasonic Junior DSP

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:20 -0400

The Fender Acoustasonic Junior DSP is a 2 channel amplifier with onboard DSP effects. This is a portable amp with brown and wheat cosmetic treatment for a distinctive look, and attempts a natural reproduction of electric-acoustic guitars and vocals. A pair of 8 inch drivers output at 40 watts each, and a tweeter is also built in to offer proper representation of the upper frequency range. Each channel has an individual set of EQ controls, as well as phase switches for feedback reduction and FX controls. More subtle adjustments can be made with the String Dynamics control to smooth harsh treble notes, and a notch control is also available for feedback adjustment. The XLR mic input supplies phantom power, and the XLR line output has a level control and ground lift for further mixing.

Marshall MG50FX

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:28:12 -0400

The Marshall MG50FX is a mid-cost 50 watt combo guitar amp. Marshall promotes their MG series as offering digital features with a classic analogue tone. There are four channels on this amp: Regular input, Foot controller, Headphone/line out, and MP3/line in (for playing along to MP3s). The MG footcontroller allows you to change tones (from clean to distortion) on the fly. The emulated headphone jack of the MG50FX allows you to hear yourself playing through headphones while the amp itself stops making noise, which is ideal for night time practicing. The 2010 MG50FX is an updating of previous models in that it has Frequency Dependent Dampening (FDD), which gives the sound of this amplifier depth, and mimics the classic tone of Marshall's all-tube amplifiers. The on-board digital effects (chorus/phaser/flanger/delay) are also a new feature. This amp is a step up from the lower cost MG30FX in that it has the foot switch included, 50 watts of power (as opposed to 30 watts), a 12" Custom speaker (as opposed to 10"), an FDD switch (for more tone choices, as opposed to having the effect on at all times), and an external FX loop (which allows you to use external effects with less noise than using them through the regular input). However, the MG50FX lacks the higher cost MG100HFX's 100 watts of power (though the MG100HFX is only an amp head, and not a full combo with speakers unto itself). The Marshall MG50FX comes in a black color.

Features

50 watt power output
1 12" speaker
4 channels (Input, foot controller, headphone/Line out, MP3/Line in)

Fender Frontman 15R

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:18 -0400

The Fender Frontman 15R is the chic counterpart to the 15G. It hosts all the same features, but it’s been cosmetically treated with skirted knobs and a silver grille cloth that makes it look more professional and fancy, though it is still just an entry-level designed strictly for practice sessions. Like its counterpart, the Frontman 15R features a 1-8” Special Design speaker, two-channel, 15W power handling, a ¼” headphone jack, and a auxiliary RCA input that can connect to a CD, tape, or drum machine. It too offers enhanced durability, though again there are complaints about the lack of precise effects and clean audio.

Fender Hot Rod DeVille 212 III

The Hot Rod DeVille 212 III is a tube-powered electric guitar amplifier from Fender that offers a step-down from the Hot Rod DeVille 410 III model and step-up from the Hot Rod Deluxe III model. Fitted with two 12-inch Celestion speakers with a total power output of 60 watts, this model is equipped with two inputs with a total of 120 volts available. Three selectable channels are included as well as an external footswitch unit for control of the Normal, Drive and More Drive functions, alongside a full control strip with individual adjustment of Presence, Reverb, Master Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble, Drive Select and Drive volume parameters. Fender's own "Spring Reverb" effect has been integrated, with multiple classic-style features such as a red amp jewel, chrome hardware and a "Dog Bone" handle built in for a vintage aesthetic. In addition, a custom amp cover ships with the unit for protection against general wear elemental damage, with Fender's rugged Black textured vinyl covering and Blackface-style grille cloth providing sufficient protection of the amplifier itself.

Fender Super-Sonic Head

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:17 -0400

The Fender Super-Sonic Head is a high mid-cost 60 watt guitar amplifier head. Fender promotes this head as their first all-tube amp to offer the classic tube tones of their '65 Vibrolux and '66 Bassman amplifiers, as well as a modern, high-gain crunch. The Vintage channel allows you to get at the classic tones, whereas the Burn channel gives you distortion. The birch/maple plywood construction of this head makes for a solid sound, clean or overdriven. The 3-button footswitch allows you to easily change from tone to tone. This head differs from the identically priced Super-Sonic 60 Head in that this head has dual cascading-gain preamp overdrive (which offers lots of saturated, distorted tone), but lacks the ivory knobs and color options. The Fender Super-Sonic head is designed for use with the 412 and 212 Fender enclosures. The Fender Super-Sonic Head comes in the blonde color.

Fender Super-Sonic 112 Combo

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:16 -0400

The Fender Super-Sonic 112 Combo is a high mid-cost 60 watt guitar amplifier. Fender promotes this amp as being a combination of sparkly '65 Vibrolux tone, thick '66 Bassman tone (both accessed through the Vintage channel), and smooth modern tone (accessed through the Burn channel). The dual cascading-gain preamp overdrive of the 112 Combo helps to give this amp more sustain and compression than any previous Fender amp. The single 12" Celestion Vintage speaker aids in the classic tone of this amp. The Baltic birch ply construction of this amp increases resonance, which makes for a thick, full tone. This amp is a step up from the lower cost 22 Combo in that it is 60 watts as opposed to 22, and has spring reverb (which is natural and more vintage-sounding, as opposed to the 22's powered reverb, which does not sound as authentic). However, this amp is a step down from the slightly higher cost 60 Combo in that it lacks the 4-button footswitch and ivory knobs. The Fender Super-Sonic 112 Combo comes with a five year limited warranty, and there are color options available.

Digital Reverb is built-into the unit with a dedicated knob for quick and easy levelling, with personal practicing available via the emulated headphone system. In addition, at a weight of 7.4 kilograms the MG15R can be transported with relative ease for versatile practice and performance options.

Fender Twin-Amp

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:21 -0400

The Fender Twin-Amp is a tube amplifier with distortion-free amplification options and a high-gain distortion channel. This is similar in general to the Fender Custom Vibrolux Reverb, but drives a higher 100 watts through a pair of 12 inch Special Design Eminence speakers. A 25 watt setting is available for smaller venues, and a larger number of tubes is used in the total system for more precise audio and flexibility. Reverb and Vibrato effects can be applied independently to the Normal and Drive channels, and fine-grain control of the tone of each channel is fully accessible. The included pedal has 4 buttons on it, allowing 4 separate presets to be selected instantly on the fly.

The Marshall JVM210C is a mid-cost 100 watt combo tube guitar amp. This amp is a two channel design, with volume, tone, and gain for each channel. You can also control the reverb for each channel individually, so that you can switch between different levels of reverb saturation (using the included footswitch, if you are switching on the fly). There are three voicing modes per channel, which gives you six tone options in total. Each voicing mode consists of a different distortion level. The JVM210C has one 12" Vintage speaker and one 12" Heritage speaker, which is what seperates it from the lower cost JVM210H (a speakerless head version). The Marshall JVM210C comes in a classic black color.

In classic Hot Rod style, Fender has included chrome hardware, a red amp jewel and a "Dog Bone" handle for reliable portability, in addition to the company's standard Black textured vinyl covering and Blackface-style grille cloth.

Fender Acoustasonic SFX II

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:20 -0400

The Fender Acoustasonic SFX II is an instrument/vocal amplifier built for environments such as clubs, churches and homes. It uses a Stereo Field Expansion (SFX) technology which combines the 80 watt 8 inch driver and high frequency tweeter with a side-radiating 6 inch speaker to create whole-room, more-than-stereo imagery. While this sets it apart from the Fender Acoustasonic Junior DSP, they have many features in common such as String Dynamics to reduce the harshness of the treble range. Each channel has individual EQ, feedback and FX controls, and an XLR line-out has level control and ground lift to allow the amp to work with mixing boards.

Features

Dual 80-watt output
8 in low-frequency driver
High-frequency tweeter
Side-radiating 6 in speaker
Stereo Field Expansion (SFX) technology

Fender Frontman 15G

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:18 -0400

The Fender Frontman 15G is an ultra-small, entry-level guitar amp geared for beginner and professionals alike in need of a budget-friendly practice amp. As an upgrade from the 10G, the Frontman 15G is supposedly a lot louder and offers much better distortion. This is due in part to a larger 1-8” Special Design speaker and an improved two-channel, 15W power handling. Plus it trades in a 1/8” auxiliary input for a auxiliary RCA input that can connect to a CD, tape, or drum machine. Expert reviewers praise the 15G (like its predecessor) for durability, but have noted the lack of precise effects and the lack of clean audio, though when the distortion is pumped up, it tends to sound beefy, which is good.

Featuring an updated faceplate design and an Mp3/Line In jack for external content playback, this model is equipped with a host of on-board effects including Chorus, Flanger, Phaser and Delay. Full digital reverb is also accessible through a separate dedicated knob, alongside a three-band equalizer for user control of bass, middle and treble frequencies. 15 watts of power are accessible through a single 8-inch speaker, with separate "Clean:Crunch" and "Overdrive" channels providing distinctive tone options. Compatible with Marshall's MG Series footswitch, users can store 4 parameter settings and access tap-tempo for the Delay effect without having to bend down and adjust the amplifier itself. In addition, isolated practice can be achieved through the emulated headphone system for late-night or private rehearsal without sacrificing sound design possibilities.

The Marshall JVM410H is a high-end 100 watt guitar tube amp head, a flagship offering. This head has a proper four channel design, with gain, volume and tone controls for each channel. Each of these four channels features three voicing modes, giving you twelve preset sounds. Each mode consists of a different level of distortion. The built-in digital reverb of the JVM410H has a level control for each channel, so that you can have varying degrees of saturation, and be able to switch from one to the other (with the included six-button footswitch). The JVM410H has five speaker outs and one speaker-emulated line out, giving you several amplification options. There are two effects loops and two MIDI sockets on this head as well, so that you will be easily able to use complex effects systems with this head.

Fender Frontman 25R

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:18 -0400

The Fender Frontman 25R is an ultra-small, entry-level guitar amp geared for beginner and professionals alike in need of a budget-friendly practice amp. It builds from the Frontman 10G and Frontman 15G/15R by incorporating a larger 10” Fender Special Design speaker. Though its larger and has a greater power handling of 25W, it’s still only recommended for practicing, though it could be used for a relatively small-size performance. Also featured is an auxiliary RCA input, a headphone input jack, and two-channel audio. There is however no FX loop (or any loops whatsoever), and there are no special effects. The distortion is also questionable, as it has a lot of mids, making it a poor choice for heavy metal.

The total power output is 40 watts through a pair of 10 inch Jensen 8 ohm speakers, but the precision in the low-volume range comes from the use of a series of pre-amp tubes with a separate series of power tubes for higher volume. Audio is run through two independent channels that use different tonal qualities and can be adjusted on the fly. Functions available include reverb and vibrato, which work through both channels. A two-button footswitch is included for quick recall of presets, and tilt-back legs allow for easy adjustment of the amplifier during setup.

Fender '65 Twin Custom 15

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:19 -0400

The Fender '65 Twin Custom 15 is a high-end guitar amp. It shares various features with another guitar amp by Fender, the '65 Super Reverb. Both of the amps include 19" tilt back legs, and both of them also have a vibrato channel. Despite this, the '65 Twin Custom 15 features a larger speaker (15" compared to 10"), as well as a bigger number of power tubes (four as opposed to two), giving it more power. The '65 Twin Custom 15 features a solid state rectifier, that allows the voltage inside the amp to remain consistent. While a tube rectifier may suffer from voltage drops, the solid state rectifier can keep the voltage going at it's original power level, creating a more powerful sound. It also features a footswitch that is able to switch between normal and vibrato channels. This allows the user to switch between two drastically different sounds on the fly, instantly switching between two different types of sound, while retaining the user's settings. As well as these, it also features an external speaker jack, which lets the user connect wireless speakers to the amp, extending the range of the sound.

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:28:13 -0400

The Marshall JVM410C is a high-end 100 watt combo guitar tube amp, a flagship offering. Like the closely related JVM410H head, this amp has a proper four channel design, with gain, volume and tone controls for each channel. Each of these four channels features three voicing modes, giving you twelve preset sounds in total. Each mode consists of a different level of distortion. The built-in digital reverb of the JVM410C has a level control for each channel, so that you can have varying degrees of saturation, and be able to switch from one level to another (with the included six-button footswitch). There are two effects loops and two MIDI sockets on this head as well, so that you will be easily able to use complex effects systems with this head. The JVM410C has a Vintage speaker and a Heritage speaker, which is what differentiates it from the lower cost JVM410H (which is a speakerless head version). The Marshall JVM410C comes in the classic black color.

Marshall MG100HFX

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:28:13 -0400

The Marshall MG100HFX is a mid-cost guitar amp head. Marshall promotes their MG series as offering digital features with a classic analogue tone. There are four channels on this head: Regular input, Foot controller, Headphone/line out, and MP3/line in (for playing along to MP3s). The MG footcontroller allows you to change tones (from clean to distortion) on the fly. The emulated headphone jack of the MG100HFX allows you to hear yourself playing through headphones while the amp itself stops making noise, which is ideal for night time practicing. The 2010 Marshall MG100HFX is an updating of previous models in that it has a Frequency Dependent Dampening (FDD) switch, which gives the sound of this amplifier depth, and mimics the classic tone of Marshall's all-tube amplifiers. The on-board digital effects (chorus/phaser/flanger/delay) are also a new feature. You can have one of these effects on at the same time as the digital reverb effect. This amp is a step up from the lower cost MG50FX in that it has 100 watts of power as opposed to 50 watts. However, the MG100HFX is only an amp head and not a combo, and so needs to be connected to a cabinet because it has no speakers of its own. Compared to the slightly higher cost MG101FX, the 12" Custom speaker is all the MG100HFX lacks. The Marshall MG100HFX comes in a black color.

Features

Marshall JVM210H

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:28:13 -0400

The Marshall JVM210H is a mid-cost 100 watt tube guitar amp head. This head has a two channel design, with volume, tone, and gain for each channel. You can also control the reverb for each channel individually, so that you can switch between different levels of reverb saturation (using the included footswitch, if you are switching on the fly). There are three voicing modes per channel, which gives you six tone options in total. Each voicing mode consists of a different distortion level. The JVM210H differs from the higher cost JVM210C in that the JVM210C has two speakers (a 12" Vintage and a 12" Heritage), whereas the JVM210H is a speakerless head version. The Marshall JVM210H 100 watt tube amp head comes in a classic black color.

Marshall MG102FX

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:28:13 -0400

The Marshall MG102FX is a mid cost 100 watt combo guitar amplifier, the flagship offering in this series. Like the entire MG series of amps, Marshall promotes the MG102FX as offering digital features with a classic analogue tone. Like the entire MG line, there are four channels on the MG102FX: Regular input, Foot controller, Headphone/line out, and MP3/line in (for playing along to MP3s). The MG footcontroller allows you to change tones from clean to distortion on the fly. The emulated headphone jack of the MG102FX allows you to hear yourself playing through headphones while the amp itself stops making noise. This feature is ideal for night time practicing. The 2010 Marshall MG102FX is an updating of previous models in that it has a Frequency Dependent Dampening (FDD) switch, which gives the sound of this amplifier depth, and mimics the classic tone of Marshall's all-tube amplifiers. The on-board digital effects (chorus/phaser/flanger/delay) are also a new feature. You can have one of these effects on at the same time as the digital reverb effect. This amp is a step up from the lower cost MG101FX in that it has a pair of 12" Custom speakers instead of just one. Like the entire MG series of guitar amps, the MG102FX comes in a classic black color.

Features

100 watt power output
4 channels (Input, foot controller, headphone/Line out, MP3/Line in)
Digital reverb
Digital chorus/phaser/flanger/delay
Emulated headphone jack

This amp is a step down from the lower cost MG100HFX in that it has a Custom 12" speaker, whereas the MG100HFX has no speakers of its own, and needs to be plugged into a cabinet. However, the MG101FX lacks the flagship MG102FX's pair of Custom 12" speakers. The MG101FX comes in a black color.

Marshall MG30FX

Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:28:12 -0400

The Marshall MG30FX is a low cost 30 watt combo guitar amplifier. Marshall promotes their MG series as offering digital features with a classic analogue tone. The 10" Custom speaker that this amp runs off of helps to make the tone sound vintage. There are four channels on this amp: Regular input, Foot controller, Headphone/line out, and MP3/line in (for playing along to MP3s). The MG footcontroller, though it is not included, is pretty much essential if you want to change tones (from clean to distortion) on the fly. The emulated headphone jack of the MG30FX allows you to hear yourself playing through headphones while the amp itself stops making noise, which is ideal for night time practicing. The 2010 MG30FX is an updating of previous models in that it has Frequency Dependent Dampening (FDD), which gives the sound of this amplifier depth, and mimics the classic tone of Marshall's all-tube amplifiers. The on-board digital effects (chorus/phaser/flanger/delay) are also a new feature. This amp is a step down from the higher cost Marshall MG50FX in that the MG50FX has 50 watts of power (as opposed to 30 watts), a 12" speaker (as opposed to 10"), an FDD switch (for more tone choices, as opposed to having the effect on at all times), and an external FX loop (which allows you to use external effects with less noise than using them through the regular input). With its low price and sparse array of effects, the Marshall MG30FX is geared toward learning guitar players.

Features

30 watt power output
1 10" speaker

Fender G-DEC Junior

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:20 -0400

The Fender G-DEC Junior is a basic amp designed for practice. While this is similar to the Fender G-DEC 3 Fifteen, it doesn't use a large bank of presets or a computer interface beyond a basic MIDI line out. This is a simplified design that contains synthesized drum and bass loops designed for backing or teaching new guitar players, and effects are elected from a pre-defined set using the knobs on the top. An additional AUX input also allows for CD or MP3 players to be connected for play-along. This amp uses a standard 1/8 inch headphone jack output.

Features

Containing synthesized drum, bass, backing and teaching loops
15-watt output
8 in speaker
Selectable amp types, effects types using knobs
Selector knobs for backing tracks and performance loops

Fender '65 Twin Reverb

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:19 -0400

The Fender '65 Twin Reverb is a high-end guitar amp. It has similar features to another Fender guitar amp, the '65 Twin Custom 15. Both amps have 19" tilt back legs, and both have a vibrato channel. However, the main difference between the two amps is that the '65 Twin Custom 15 has a larger speaker (15" versus 12"), and is taller (22" versus 19.87"). The '65 Twin Reverb features a total of four inputs, that give the user many options on where to plug in their guitar. The user may choose where to plug the guitar in depending on the amount of power they wish it to have, as well as they type of sound they want (two inputs for normal, and two for vibrato). It also features a solid state rectifier, which keeps the voltage levels within the amp consistent. With a normal tube rectifier, the longer the tube, the more the voltage will end up dropping. However, using a solid state rectifier, the voltage levels remain the same no matter what size the rectifier is. This results in a more powerful sound from the amp. As well as these, the '65 Twin Reverb also features an included two button footswitch, which can allow the user to switch between the normal and vibrato channels with ease. Even while playing their guitar, the user can use the footswitch to instantly switch channels, automatically giving them a new sound at will.

Features

Solid state rectifier
Vibrato channel
15" speaker
22" height
Four inputs

Fender Frontman 10G

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:18 -0400

The Fender Frontman 10G is an ultra-small, entry-level guitar amp geared for beginner and professionals alike in need of a budget-friendly practice amp. Featured a 6” Special Design speaker encased in a closed-back cabinet for a heavier bass response, a selectable gain control for switching from tube-emulated overdrive to full-strength distortion, and a variety of inputs, including auxiliary, headphone, and instrument. Expert users say the Frontman 10G is very lightweight and provides ‘satisfying’ sound, though the distortion isn’t impressive. It’s especially praised for being very durable, as many users report owning it for years, and yet it still has no broken parts or dents. Overall though, it’s recommended only for practice—as it’s not built to handle a real performance.

Fender Acoustasonic 30 DSP

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 18:20:20 -0400

The Fender Acoustasonic 30 DSP is a High End Acoustic Guitar Amp. This model is the upgraded version of the Acoustasonic 30, with Onboard DSP Effects such as delay, chorus, vibratone and more. The Acoustasonic 30 DSP is a 30 Watt Power Amp that controls an 8” foam-surround low-frequency driver and a high-frequency tweeter. This model has separate equalizer controls for both the instrument and microphone channels, phase switches for feedback reduction, and FX select and level. These options give the user more control over sound quality, and the ability to reduce playback noise. The Acoustasonic 30 DSP uses Phantom Power to supply the XLR Mic Input, and the XLR Line Output with Level Control and Ground Lift allows for direct input into any mixer.

This model uses Fender's patented String Dynamics to control harsh treble sounds, while a feedback notch removes any remaining feedback problems. This allows for a much cleaner sound and better acoustics in any environment. The Fender Acoustasonic 30 DSP comes in a Brown/Wheat Cosmetic Treatment, and offers an optional two-button footswitch to allow FX on/off for each channel.
