Fender's FM Series Guitar Amps!

Tired of no-name amps that promise you power and features, but fall short? The FM 212R combo matches Fender® tone and reliability with 100 watts of juiced-up power being pushed through two new 12” FENDER® Special Design drivers. This versatile amp features three channels (Clean/Drive/More Drive), on-board spring Reverb and a new Mid Contour switch that lets players dial in a multitude of distortion tones. The FM 212R looks as good as it sounds with its black control panel, black vinyl covering and grille cloth, and chrome hardware. Legendary Fender tone, tons of power and an affordable price makes the FM 212R hard to pass up.
Two-button footswitch included.

ultimate clean sound

by Ed Kujawa from Rochester NY
December 21, 2011
Music Background: 30 years a player electronic technician
in all respect I am basing this on a Fender Twin Reverb 1992 reissue
I has same set up almost as that amp I owned a 65 Twin Reverb
Reissue and that was loud too but it only had 85Watts ... read more [+]not 100Watts
Like this does. I am not a heavy metal player so could care less about overdriving the amp I am after a clean sound as possible when you play
a Pedal Steel you want cleanest sound possible I have had many Fender amps all good mostly tube but a few others as well It is roadworthy as well I worked on these as a electronic tech I only had one bad it had a bad B+ switch and I got bit 500 volts dc smarts a little
Have owned 10 to 12 Fender Amp very few problems as far as reverb
tanks go I had a Fender 63 Reverb Unit souped it up for more gain
sounded darn good through a Silverface Bassman 50 Watt amp close [-]

Very versatile amp. Cranks nice and heavy. For the price you're crazy not to buy one. Better distorted tones out of the box than my pod xt live.

YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO BELIVE THAT ALL THAT TONE AND POWER ARE COMING OUT OF AN AMP THAT COSTS LESS THAN * $300.00 * I WOULD BE WILLING TO BET THAT YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER AMP THAN THIS ONE FOR THE PRICE .THIS AMP COULD EASILY SELL FOR $500.00 , AND OH YEA DID I MENTION THAT THIS AMP IS LOUD ! THIS AMP HAS THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS , IT'S SMALL ENOUGH TO USE AS A PRACTICE AMP BUT ALSO , WITH A FULL 100 WATS OF POWER AT YOUR FINGER TIPS YOU CAN EASILY PLAY ANY SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZED CLUB. ALSO IT WAS A PLEASURE TO DO BUSINESS WITH ** SWEETWATER ** THEY MADE MY PURCHASE OF THIS AMP VERY PLEASURABLE , WITH FREE SHIPPING ( I GOT MY AMP IN 3 DAYS !, PLUS IT CAN'T BE CHEAP TO SHIP SOMETHING THAT WEIGHS FIFTY POUNDS FOR FREE ,BUT THEY DO ! ) ALL IN ALL , I AM VERY HAPPY I BOUGHT THIS AMP , I PLAN ON USING IT FOR MANY YEARS TO COME ( THE NEXT VINTAGE COLLECTABLE AMP ? )IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT BUYING A NEW AMP , BUY THIS ONE , YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID !
