  After buying the Hot Rod Deluxe amp I felt like the amp needed to be spread a little thinner due to the fact the amp has a ton of power. Adding an extra speaker would do the trick & it did. It adds depth and low end. This didn't make me a better player but I like what I hear. I also bought the JM-4 line6 looper @ GC and they work great together.

• Great Addition to a 4X10 Blues Deville

  
  As reviewed by George Nolte on 12/26/2010

  All in all, when all factors are added up the Fender Co. rules the world of the "Blues Sound" produced by a tube driven cab. The 60 watts Blues Deville can compliment just about any Blues artform on this planet or the next. However, one small area of the sonic spectrum that the 4X10 cab need a little help in was the deep and POWERFUL lower bass freqs. In my opinion, you don't need a 2x12 cabinet to get that little extra low bass that was slightly lacking before. I bought the 122 cab with 1x12 featuring the Celestion G12P-80. It is pure heavenly balance when used in combo with the 60 watt 4X10 Blues Deville. For me, that magic balance of just enough lower bass that was not there before adding the 1X12 Fender Cab suddenly appears with the general amp setting (for "average" size club gig 100-150 people): Treble 7-8, Bass 8-9, Presence "cranked" 10-12, Channel Normal. This give be a "slight" scoop sound with the addition of the 1X12 which produces a nice, rich bluesy sound when play chords/rhythm. When a "Brighter" lead is needed I switch the channel foot switch to "Bright" and kick on the on "coloration" pedal that I use which is a Boss BD-2 supplimented with a Boss DD-7 Delay (for a slight amount of "thickening". In summerary, the 122 Fender cabinet is a truely GREAT and balanced adddition to any Hot Rod or Blues Deville. And for the sale price of $299.00 sure makes that great feeling of great lots more tone cheap feel even better. Try it...... you will LIKE it!

• Amazing Cab!

  
  As reviewed by Matt on 5/26/2011

  I bought the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe speaker cab to compliment the sound of my Blues Deluxe amp. While the sound of my Blues Deluxe has always been awesome I knew it was lacking some bottom end, (besides the paranoid part of me was always leery of pushing the amount of volume this little Fender can generate out of a 112 set up). The Hot Rod Deluxe extension cab has exceeded any and all expectations I had for it. I have received nothing but glowing compliments on the sound quality from practice to gigs, the tone and fullness of the volume is amazing. I would highly recommend this amp/speaker set up to anyone. For context my gear includes a Fender American Standard Strat, a Samick AV-7, Boss OS - 2 distortion pedal, Cry Baby wah, Boss PH - 3 phase shifter and Boss DD - 7 delay.
