Electronics and construction[edit]
As an all-tube (pre-amp and power sections) combo guitar amplifier, the Hot Rod Deluxe features a pair of 6L6GC beam tetrodes for the power section and two 12AX7 dual triodes for the preamp section. One additional 12AX7 tube is utilized for the phase inverter of the power section. However, the rectifier, reverb driver and recovery, and effects loop circuits are solid state. The power section uses a 'fixed bias' biasing scheme with an adjustable bias potentiometer installed from the factory. The factory bias is 60 mA total for both 6L6s.
The physical appearance of the Hot Rod series is based on the mid-to-late '50's 'narrow panel' tweed amplifiers with accouterments such as a top mounted, chrome plated chassis and black 'chicken head' pointer knobs, but with textured black tolex found on Fender amps from the 1960s onward rather than the tweed covering.
Unlike 'vintage' Fender tube amplifiers, the Hot Rod Deluxe uses a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) construction rather than Point-to-Point (PTP) construction. Internally, there are two sets of circuit boards. The main circuit board contains the majority of the electronic elements and provides the base onto which the potentiometers for the various controls, and the input and output jacks, are mounted. A secondary board provides the base onto which the tube sockets are mounted (although the pair of power tube sockets are mounted directly on the chassis with long leads connecting those to the secondary board).
Stock and other versions[edit]
At various times, Fender has released special versions or 'Limited Editions' of this amplifier. The stock version of the Hot Rod Deluxe features a 7-Ply 3/4' Birch/Maple Plywood cabinet upholstered in black tolex with silver 'sparkle' speaker grille cloth.
Fender has also updated the Hot Rod Deluxe periodically. From 1996–2010, the stock speaker is an Eminence Legend 1258 75 Watt (special design) speaker. In 2010 the updated version, (dubbed the Hot Rod Deluxe III) was equipped with a Celestion G12P-80 speaker. In 2018 it was updated again with a Celestion A-Type speaker, pine cabinet, smoother-sounding spring reverb and modified preamp circuitry.
Limited editions[edit]
From 2003 to 2004 Fender released two limited edition models in polished maple hardwood (no tolex covering). One of these had a classic three-color sunburst finish; the other was a stained natural finish (both with Jensen speakers).
From late 2006 to March 2007, Fender offered the Hot Rod Deluxe 'White Lightning' Limited Edition. Notable features include white tolex with white control knobs, dark black/silver grille cloth, white pilot light (instead of the stock red), and a 12' Celestion G12 Century Vintage 8-ohm, 60-watt Speaker.
Starting in early 2008, Fender offered the Hot Rod Deluxe in 'Texas Red' Limited Edition, main differences being a 12' Celestion G12 Century Vintage 8-ohm, 60-watt speaker much like the 'White Lightning' version. It also includes ivory chicken knobs.
Other limited editions have included:
- Emerald Green (V30, ivory knob, British emerald, grey grill)
- Orange Racing Stripe
- Wine Red
- Surf Green
- Red Nova
- Western tooled tolex
- Chocolate Brown
- Bluesman blue tolex
