From jazz clubs to the world’s biggest stages, the Fender GB George Benson Hot Rod Deluxe™ combo amp delivers the powerful, expressive tone sought by discerning guitarists. Based on the legendary Hot Rod Deluxe, this special edition is fine-tuned for the needs of jazz virtuoso George Benson, offering rich lows, pristine cleans, and dynamic articulation.

This 40-watt all-tube combo amplifier features a premium 12" Jensen® C12K speaker, known for its ability to handle articulate solos and full-band mixes with clarity and depth. A 12AT7 preamp tube ensures cleaner headroom—perfect for humbucking pickups—and classic 6L6 power tubes deliver that unmistakable Fender warmth.

The solid pine cabinet enhances resonance while keeping weight manageable. Dressed in stylish gray-black vinyl, silver-strand grille cloth, and adorned with a custom "GB" logo badge, this amp is as elegant as it is powerful. With clean, drive, and more-drive channels, built-in spring reverb, and an effects loop, the GB Hot Rod Deluxe is ready for the studio or stage. Includes a deluxe padded cover and 2-button footswitch.
