Their Blackface cosmetic treatment (skirted knobs, silver grille cloth) makes these amps look as good as they sound!

Fender Special Design speaker, 2 selectable channels (Normal and Drive), 3-band EQ, and an external speaker jack.

Fender Frontman II 15G Guitar Combo Amplifier (15 Watts, 1x8 in.) Reviews

"Compact classic Fender sound."
Feature:
For the price the features are good. Headphone jack for quiet playing keeps the rest of the family happy and the Aux inputs great for playing along and learning songs. Don't need effects. That's what my pedals are for.

Quality:
It's Fender quality! Rugged and should last a lifetime.

Value:
Great Fender product at a great price!

Desirability:
Classic Fender styling so near and dear to a real guitarist's heart.

Sound:
Classic Fender in a compact unit. Controls allow you to play a sharp rock lead or a mellow jazz tone or anything in between. Tremendous volume for its size. Surprising base for its size.

Ease of Use:
Pretty intuitive. Definitely play with the tone controls both on the amp and guitar to get the sound you like. I play a Fender Strat HSS that allows me many combinations of tone to select from.

Support:
Don't know. Never needed service.

Overall:
I would replace it if lost. It won't break your back moving it around. It's perfect for what it does as a compact amp that is easy to haul around with plenty of output. Not loud enough to play a club on it's own but it's great miked into the house PA.

"Stunning value, real Fender sound in a minute package!"
Feature:
If I'd gone out to buy this, I'd probably have gone for the 15R (with reverb) or the 25R - but it was a gift from my wife, and I don't use reverb that much anyway.

Quality:
Very solid indeed. Runs for hours non-stop, never skips a beat. All in all, no complaints here.

Value:
Stunning amp for the money.

Desirability:
Nice looking amp, proper Fender blackface styling - but it's so SMALL ;-) Actually it's really useful since so easy to carry, but it does look a little silly on stage!

Sound:
Tiny solid state amp that it is, it does sound like a Fender. The clean sound is very impressive, but the drive channel is excellent too once you get used to it (see Ease of Use). Experiment with the guitar tone control when using overdrive - from a raw snarl (full treble) to a creamy, woodwind tone (treble rolled right off). Playing live in church I put the amp on a chair and close mic with an AT Pro22a (dynamic) just off speaker centre - through the 600W PA it sounds just tremendous.

Support:
No complaints with Fender support generally (I've played Fender guitars for 30+ years) - never needed support for this amp.

Overall:
Love it - if it were lost or stolen I'd probably go for a Frontman 25R, but I've no intention of deliberately changing it.
