Fender Deluxe
’57 Custom

Pure tweed tone. Handwired for harmonic heaven.
The Fender ’57 Custom Deluxe is a modern reissue of one of the most beloved tube amps in history—known for its dynamic touch response, rich overdrive, and unmistakable midrange growl. Handwired and loaded with a 12AY7 preamp tube and 5E3 circuit, it captures the soul of the original tweed-era amps that shaped the sound of early rock, blues, and country. At Rupert Street Recording, it’s a go-to for warm rhythm tones, expressive lead work, and vintage mojo that sits perfectly in the mix.

The original ’50s Deluxe was famously used by Neil Young, who still tours with one as part of his signature sound. Its legendary tone has also shaped records by The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, and Mike Campbell of Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers.
