Product Description

The new Machete amp is unlike any guitar amp Fender has ever created-a high-performance, high-gain, high-end tone machine that combines tube sound and highly distinctive cosmetics. Discerning guitarists and amp connoisseurs who are both meticulous and adventurous about even the finest details of their sound will find the Machete a formidable new member of the Fender family.

The 50-watt, dual-channel Machete combo boasts a completely new high-gain channel unlike anything ever seen on a Fender amp, an extremely clear-sounding clean channel that can be pushed into aggressive rhythm guitar territory, and onboard digital reverb. Its heavily robust enclosure construction and single 12 inch Celestion speaker deliver full, rich and pummeling response, with a midrange notch control, adjustable speaker damping for finely tuned performance, XLR output with switchable speaker muting and cabinet emulation, and push-pull pots for bright boost and gain boost on the rhythm channel. Its distinctive cosmetics include black vinyl covering with inlaid white piping and gray vinyl "steering wheel grip" accents, new Black Silver Strand grille cloth, heavily knurled chrome knobs and all-new corners and hardware. Four-button footswitch and fitted cover included.

Features

- 6dB of input attenuation provides cleaner response when used with pre-amplified or high-output instruments
- Pull gain knob to adjust channel one preamp gain level
- Pull volume knob out to select the "Channel One Boost" channel for an extra boost of preamp gain, also switchable from the Machete footswitch or by using MIDI commands
- Notch control adjusts the channel one mid-frequency attenuation for a variety of American and British tonal flavors
- Built-in Reverb adjusts the reverb level for both channels
- Damping control adjusts speaker damping, or the resonance interaction between the power amplifier and the speaker
- Power Amp Mute switch for silent recording
- XLR Line Output with Cabinet Emulation selector switch
- MIDI In for use with MIDI controllers
