Key Features
The Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III Limited Edition Blonde PR 246 is a highly desirable version of one of Fender's most popular all-valve combo amplifiers. Finished in Blonde tolex with vintage-inspired styling, this Limited Edition model offers classic Fender performance with a distinctive look and upgraded speaker specification.
This model is fitted with a Celestion G12 Vintage 30 speaker, giving it a stronger midrange voice, tighter response and excellent projection compared with many standard Hot Rod Deluxe variants. Its 40-watt valve output section provides ample clean headroom, making it ideal for gigging guitarists and players using pedal-based rigs.
The amplifier features Normal, Drive and More Drive modes, allowing access to sparkling clean tones, edge-of-breakup sounds and higher-gain lead voices. Spring reverb, an effects loop and footswitchable operation make it a practical and versatile choice for live performance, rehearsal and studio use.
