Description
The ’68 Custom Deluxe Reverb takes the beloved silverface-era Deluxe and gives it a second personality. Under that silver-and-turquoise faceplate with aluminum grille trim sits a modified all-tube circuit offering two distinct channels: a Vintage side that delivers the traditional silverface chime players have chased for decades, and a Custom side wired with a Bassman-style tone stack for a fuller, more aggressive midrange. Fender also dialed back the negative feedback, so pick attack responds faster and gain builds up sooner under your fingers.
At 22 watts through a single 12″ Celestion G12V-70, this combo sits in the sweet spot for small rooms, home practice, and studio work where you want real tube dynamics without needing a full stack’s volume. Built-in spring reverb and tremolo—both tube-driven—round out the vintage-correct experience, letting you dial in surf-style wash or pulsing tremolo without a single pedal.
- 22 watts at 8 ohms, hand-wired tube sockets
- One 12″ Celestion G12V-70 speaker
- Two channels: Vintage (Volume, Treble, Bass, Reverb) and Custom (Volume, Treble, Bass) with shared Vibrato Speed/Intensity
- Four 1/4″ inputs, two parallel 1/4″ speaker jacks
- Preamp tubes: 4x 12AX7, 2x 12AT7; Power tubes: 2x 6V6; Tube rectifier: 1x 5AR4
- Birch/pine cabinet in black textured vinyl with silver-turquoise grille and blue jewel

Whether you’re chasing classic silverface sparkle or want the extra push of a Bassman-flavored channel, this Deluxe Reverb reissue gives working guitarists a genuinely versatile, gig-ready tone machine at 42 lbs.
