Hot Rod DeVille 212 III
The worlds most popular tube amps just got better! Fender 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. Hot Rod amps deliver unmistakable Fender tone and are 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 G12P-80 speakers.

For giging in the house i set the volume at a 3 to 4 then adjust the guitar to suit I use it with a Tele, Strat and a Les Paul. Its a tad heavy, takes pedal real well.

I used to have a solid state 412 head/cab combo that was just a pain to take anywhere so I decided to down size. This amp is as loud if not louder with 60watts and 212 vs my old 150watt and 412, I rarely get the vol past 2 on the clean or overdrive channel. When you get to 4 on the clean channel it starts to get a little dirty and gives off a nice bluesy sound. Its loud as balls on 4 though and if you're playing in a small bedroom/apartment I wouldn't recommend the 212 get the single 12. This is a great amp though and you will be happy with it.

Bought the 212 Deville in 2002 from L&M and this one was made in USA. It still sounds great, classic Fender tone on clean, I use with pedal chains at the front of the amp and in the effects loop -- reverb, echo, delay, chorus, overdrive. I usually pair this with another Fender amp (Vibrolux, Deluxe). Not one issue with this amp in 13 yrs. I play indoors, put volume of 3 or 4 and adjust guitar volume to get the tone. Highly recommended.

I originally bought my Hot Rod Deville in 2001 (or so) as a more "compact" replacement for my Marshall JCM 800. The amp will fill any bar or anything with less than 20,000 seats. Great clean tone but I am not fond of the built in overdrive. I use a Chandler Tube Driver to get the tone I want. Amp sounds insane, but does not work as well at "home" levels of volume. I love it, but I have no use for it anymore - not without killing small animals and shattering windows.

This was my first purchase in the Fender Hot Rod Series, power is an understatement. This amp will serve you in and outdoors and then some, since then i've added the deluxe, and blues junior to my amp family, and fender keeps giving you that tone, and richness you hope to get in a purchase like this..the tubes run really hot so make sure in getting matched sets when replacing..fender you rock!!

Great tone but loud for home use. Have owned for 5 years good to see new model has more linear volume control. Overall great clean sound and a perfect foundation for pedals.

I absolutely love my Deville! Killer clean tones, nice sounding reverb and the drive channel really pushes the amp! I highly recommend purchasing one. I'm more into the 212 than the 410 personally and when paired with a pedalboard this will be your best friend!

Very powerful, clean tones are beautiful. When paired with effects, i would say this amp is second to none. I have played many amps, but this is my favourite.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
