Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III – 40W All-Tube 1x12 | Road Case Included

Up for sale is a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III in excellent used condition, housed in its own dedicated road case on casters. The Hot Rod Deluxe III is arguably the world standard for gigging guitarists — a 40-watt all-tube combo that pairs exceptional clean headroom with three switchable gain channels, lush spring reverb, and a pedal-friendly effects loop. This one is clean, road-ready, and has clearly been well cared for.

The black tolex covering and silver grille cloth are in great shape. All knobs, switches, and jacks are intact and functional. The Celestion speaker is original and undamaged. The road case (labeled "FENDER HOT ROD DELUXE III") is sturdy and fitted with casters.
