Overview
The Vibro-King Custom is a new evolution of Fender's venerable tube amplifier, as seen on countless stages around the world.

Fender has added a pair of powerful all-new USA-made 6L6-GE Groove Tubes for more rich, full tone than ever. The Vibro-King Custom has unparalleled sensitivity to pick dynamics and guitar knob settings, and its crystal-clean tones, sparkling Reverb, and commanding overdriven tones are downright inspiring.

""The Vibro-King...Cream of the Vintage Tone Amps""
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
The best Amp if you expect good vintage fender tone...I wouldn't play through anything else these days...chunk those pedals fellas...this amp carries itself with great distinction! I really want the 2 - 12 extension cabinet...then the tone is unbeatable...
Sound
This Amp has excellent tone through the entire volume spectrum. Good for any music especially Blues and Good Rock. The Pick Dynamics are second to none with a reverb that will have you melting inside. The Vabrato is excellect. This is in my opinion is the best of the fender Amps...or for that matter just about any Amp out there...I've played Amps that cost 10K that won't come close to this amp in tone. It's a TONE Monster! Simple to operate...no fancy lights and other gadget stuff to make you think "You Got A Sweet Deal"
Features
I like the Fat/Vibrato Foot switch...I wish it handled reverb as well. however, with this beautiful reverb that's the Holy grail of Reverbs why would you want to turn it off anyway! very Colorful! It has a no nonsense tube compliment...
Ease of Use
This is the great thing about this amp...it's a basic Tone King...No unneeded gadgets...just great fender tone...second to none in my opinion. It's heavy, but dynamite comes in big packages most of the time...it's got guts in it's construction.
