Blonde Vibe and Visuals Come to the Featherlight Tone Master Deluxe Reverb

This Fender Tone Master Deluxe Reverb is a stunning facsimile of a '60s-era all-tube Deluxe, built using the latest in Fender digital amplification and loaded with an ultralight Celestion neodymium-magnet speaker for a distinct rock 'n' roll voicing. Sweetwater's guitar players thoroughly enjoy the faithful modeling of the classic tube architecture, with all the headroom, output, and reactivity of the original at a massive weight savings; a solid pine cabinet further shaves off poundage. Inside, you'll find a 12-inch Celestion Neo G12 Creamback speaker voiced to handle everything from Midwest indie pop to wide-open hard rock covers. Around back, a 5-way power attenuator transparently reduces wattage to let you achieve just the right tube-flavored cluck and breakup for any live and studio setting. You also get an XLR balanced output with your choice of flat response or two onboard cab simulations for silent performance and recording.

Faithful digital modeling

Using the latest in Fender modeling technology, the Tone Master is able to capture the sound and performance of the seminal all-tube Deluxe Reverb. The harmonic sparkle, the chewy breakup, the highly reactive tone stack, and even digital models of the iconic spring reverb and tube tremolo — it's all here in the Tone Master Deluxe Reverb. And when it comes time to fill a stage, the Tone Master has output to spare; this 100-watt solid-state amp packs SPLs comparable to the 22-watt tube classic.

Onboard power attenuation

The Tone Master allows you to dial back wattage to 0.2 watts to achieve the desired level of breakup, even run full tilt, in the quietest rooms and venues.

A 2-button footswitch for remote channel and FX switching is included.

Celestion G12 Neo Creamback speaker

A handpicked 12-inch Celestion G12 Neo Creamback speaker gives this Tone Master Deluxe Reverb a stage-filling punch and vocal-like midrange similar to the G12M Greenback, beloved by players from Eric Clapton to Eddie Van Halen, but with much higher handling. And thanks to its neodymium magnet, the Neo Creamback weighs significantly less than its classic counterpart. This helps make for an easier carry from the car to the stage, with no loss in tone.

"No other speaker could sound as close to a G12M (Greenback) and offer this level of power handling capability." — Celestion

Lightweight pine cab

The Tone Master Deluxe Reverb features a solid pine cabinet for a lighter haul with no compromise to tone, and the textured Blonde vinyl and Oxblood grille cloth give this amp undeniable Fender appeal.

Speaker-emulated XLR output

One of the Tone Master's more modern features is its XLR balanced output, which is useful for creating a silent stage or recording sets without a mic. Two onboard cab impulse responses (IR) give you a direct feed out to a soundboard. Here, you can choose between the familiar bite of an SM57-miked speaker or the smooth punch of an MD421. Alternatively, a flat-response option provides seamless integration with your existing IRs. There's also a Ground-lift switch and level control for noise reduction and proper gain staging.

The Blonde Tone Master Deluxe Reverb's familiar control panel yields classic Deluxe Reverb performance and handling

The modern Deluxe Reverb
I'm downsizing my rig, and moving from heavier music, playing a 79' JMP 2204 half stack, and I was dead set on the 65' reissue deluxe, but I living in an apartment, I was worried about how much I could actually use it. After some research, the Blonde model sounded like the route to go, so I bought one and I am soooo glad I did.
This has all the tone of a 65' but with so many more usable features.
The attenuator works great and it is so lightweight and the DI sounds exactly like it's mic'd up with a SM57.
If you're a tube purist, and don't have to worry about volume, recording or playing live, grab a 65' reissue.
But if you're like me, and need the functionality with all the tone quality, grab one of these.

I Like It!
Ok, I have been using the TM twin and DR in my studio for teaching for many years and never really fell in love with either. I managed the twin a little better but kept bouncing back and forth between the two. A few weeks ago I traded another amp for an older Fender tube DR with mods done including clipping the bright cap. I liked it a lot and it got me thinking about software updates. Not really into bright channels for pedals. All of the sudden, Sweetwater introduces this blonde line with cream back speakers and software updates already done. Mine came yesterday and I was thrilled! No more spiky sounds and the also the reverb is really manageable now. I added a Boss GE-7 guitar EQ pedal and dropped the kids just a smidge and it really sounds great. I don't need to pick it apart anymore than that. It is what it is and I am using it as a pedal platform anyway, not trying to crank it and get it to behave like a real tube amp with breakup. Not gonna happen. Get a real tube amp and be done with it if that is what you are looking for. I read a forum once with a discussion like this and one guy said, "There's a reason tube amps have been around for a hundred years". That always stuck with me and it's never gonna change. ;-)

Just Buy It
After my rep, David Markowski, jumped in and replaced my initial order which got lost in FedEx land, my Tone Master got delivered. Have to say David is always right there for me.

I uncreated the amp and A/B it with a Fender Super Sonic Twin. (Check the pic). While the Super Sonic tube compression really stood out, the Tone Master cleans were every bit a match for the Sonic.

All in all, after about an hour switching back and forth between the two, I would definitely prefer the weight/clarity/modeling of the Tone Master at my next gig.

The Best Amp if you actually play gigs
The Tone Master Blonde Deluxe Reverb sounds like the best deluxe reverb you'll ever hear. Now, if that's a problem for you I have no sympathy! I used to gig with two actual 1965 Deluxe Reverbs. That was a great sound! But modern gigs require modern tools. I still have tube amps, but in order to use in ear monitors and have a "silent stage" this amp is a must. When you go direct, it sounds exactly the same and you can turn off the speaker. This allows the FOH to totally control the volume and get a perfect mix. Also, you never have to worry about a noisy tube. Fender addressed all the issues with the original Tonemaster Deluxe with this one. The Celestion Neo Creamback is a killer speaker! You will not be disappointed in this purchase.

Perfect bedroom amp
So, I bought the Fender Tone Master Deluxe Reverb (I have the blonde version) just before Christmas, 2020, so I've been able to play it for a couple of months now. I was able to research extensively before I pulled the trigger, so I knew what I was getting, having watched every YouTube video I could find on them.

I also own a nice boutique Fender Champ clone, and it's a great little amp, and replicates the early Fender tweed tone perfectly. I love me a good tube amp. But this thing definitely kicks things up a notch. First off, for a bedroom player like myself, the attenuator is *exactly* what I've been looking for! I can get great clean tones, as well as pure screaming Texas blues drive, from the same amp, at bedroom volumes. That's a game changer for me. Especially during these COVID work-from-home times, with my daughter in the bedroom next to the mancave, and my wife in the living room also working remotely, I can play with the sound I like, and not bother either of them.

What I absolutely love is that this amp takes pedals extremely well. I'm using the JHS Bonsai for my Texas blues drive tones, and you can't beat the built-in Fender reverb and tremolo. I add some slapback with an ancient Boss DD-2 digital delay I've had since the mid-1980's, and it does exactly what I need.

There are a couple of firmware updates from Fender, so if you like the original bright cap feature (high frequencies bypass the volume knob), you can keep it stock, or you can download/install the 'No Bright Cap' firmware and get that meatier midrange tone so many will enjoy. I like and use the 'No Bright Cap' firmware, so that's what I'm using. You can use either a Windows PC or an Apple MacOS computer to update the firmware. It's easy to do, so you can always try either firmware and see what you like.

After carefully listening to reviews on both the traditional Deluxe Reverb, or the Blonde Deluxe Reverb, I chose the Blonde Deluxe Reverb for two reasons. One, I think I like the slightly warmer, slightly crunchier overdrive sound of the Celestion neo-Creamback speaker more than the original Jensen speaker. Two, Sweetwater had a store demo unit on sale for a few bucks less, so I was able to get it for a good deal. They do come up once in a while, so check the Sweetwater homepage for those 'demo model' deals.

If you're looking for classic Fender tube sound, but with the flexibility to go from stage-volumes to bedroom-volumes in a single amp, I think you'll really enjoy the Tone Master Deluxe Reverb. Enjoy!
