Fender Eric Clapton EC Tremolux Guitar Combo Amplifier (12 Watts, 1x12")
Built in collaboration with Eric Clapton, the Tremolux guitar amp gushes with the vintage, all-tube Fender flavor that "Slowhand" himself helped define.

"Great Amp!"

I bought this amp to record with and to play some smaller venues. The amp does what I want it to and sounds great! I was wondering what the higher wattage ceramic celestion speaker was going to sound like in a 12 watt amp? It is a great choice! Punchy and throaty when pushed.. Roll your guitars volume back and the the amp / speaker clean up nice. Most of the older late 1950's fender tweed amps sound a bit honkey and thay don't have much headroom. Well this tremolux stays pretty clean up until about 4 1/2 with plenty of volume for a small gig. No reverb but the solid pine cab resonates nice, almost sounds like a bit of reverb.. The tremolo is real tremolo, throbbing and swampy .. very nice! It's a bit pricey, but for a hand wired boo-teek quality amp that sounds great, the price is right! Lots of tweed deluxe clones out there that cost more! This is a tweed deluxe with trem.. Trem-o-de lux get it? The Lacquered tweed, really doesn't seem that Lacquered? Anyway, I will have this amp forever!

"Was not for me"

This is a beautiful amp. I loved the tweed look. It just did not have the tone I was looking for. I like a strong clean sound most of the time. This started getting dirty about 5 on the volume scale. The tremolo was pretty cool. I sent this one back and ordered the Twinolux because of the added power and more control. I got high hopes for it but, the storms have delayed it for about a week now. I am waiting with baited breathe for for that one. Fender makes great products and I have never had any issues with them. I just like what I like.
