Rate and Review This Product
The world's most popular tube amps just got better. Fender(r) Hot Rod series amplifiers are found on every stage in the world, large and small, and are used by guitarists from all walks of life. The Hot Rod DeVille 212 III delivers unmistakable Fender tone and is the perfect platform for musicians to craft their own signature sound. These no-frills amps are affordable, reliable and loud, and they pair extremely well with stomp boxes.
The Hot Rod DeVille 212 III is a 60-watt combo with a classic 2x12" speaker configuration borrowed from the legendary Twin Reverb amp, the low-end headroom characteristic of 6L6 tubes, a versatile all-12AX7 tube preamp, an effects loop and more. It produces amazing clean and overdriven tones and luscious Fender spring reverb, and a 4-ohm extension speaker output even lets you add a cabinet for additional stage coverage. Additional Hot Rod Deville 212 III upgrades include an easier-to-read black control panel with front-reading text, new badge, streamlined footswitch, graduated volume and treble pot tapers, and dual Celestion(r) G12P-80 speakers.
Features:
- New Celestion G12P-80 12-inch speakers tighten bass response and offer harmonically enhanced character when pushing hard in the Drive channel (Deluxe III and DeVille 212 III models)
- Improved modified tone circuit gives tighter overdrive voice and midrange punch
- Graduated volume and tone potentiometers offer smoother, more refined and predictable linear sweep
- Pedalboard-friendly footswitch design is sleek, tough and stage-ready
- New Fender badge lets you know it's a retooled and refueled Hot Rod amp
- New black non-reflective control panel makes onstage adjustments easier

What Our Customers Are Saying About zZounds
"Outstanding purchase experience with zZounds. Free shipping, and my complete order arrived in one day! Ability to spread the costs over 4 payments for a low fee is extremely helpful. Highly satisfied customer." - customer on April 30th, 2012
Sound:
I would suggest working with the amp to create your unique tone with your pedal and off course a volume controller. This amp is loud and has enough juice to rock your local bar/hall.
Feature:
For the value/price; what I see as features are the tubes, construction etc. Buying an amp without features/ gizmo's is the best investment. This is why we use effects to color our sound. Amps should come with basics. Volume, bass, treble, middle and a master volume control.
Ease of Use:
Tailoring your sound to ones needs has nothing to do with playability. I would agree it needs some tweeking so be prepared to spend some time before gigging.
Quality:
Had no problems so far....but, as with any tube amp....."warm the tubes" prior to gigging.
Value:
Good bang for the buck
Manufacturer Support:
Had no issues or reason to contact Fender yet.
The Wow Factor:
The design is boring
Overall:
For the price, sound and weight etc., cant go wrong
Style of Music: dance/ funk

"Its a Fender"
Sound:
It's a Fender! This thing is really loud. I used it for many bar gigs and never used the volume passed 5. Its a Blues Deville, so it has a blues overdrive/distortion...very light.
Feature:
A footswitch...drive and reverb.
Ease of Use:
Easy to use..straight out of the box.
Quality:
I love Fender. Always great quality products, very reliable. This baby seems like it will last a long, long time.
Value:
A bit pricey, but worth every penny.
Manufacturer Support:
I've never had to contact them.
The Wow Factor:
I got the tweed covered one.
Overall:
I will never get rid of it. I will supplement it, but never replace it. I bought it because I had a Stratocaster and wanted a Fender. What I least like about it is that it is very heavy to carry, but then again what amp isn't. I will buy a hard case to protect it, but it will definitely have to have wheels.
Style of Music: Alternative, Classical
