My new amp! Fender VM Deluxe!!

Congrats Simon on the new amp purchase.  How it gives you many years of great tone!

Allright, gonna give you a short description about the amp and its features.

The fender Deluxe VM is a 40 watt tube combo with two channels and inbuilt Delay, reverb and Chorus. All the effects are digital (i know some people doesn't like that but i do! )

This amp is almost like a new version of the Fender Hot Rod deluxe.

The clean channel sounds like a fender clean should. it consists a volume knob, a tone and a bass knob. I do miss the middle knob but this amp does sound good without it as well!

What makes this amp standing out from other fender amps is the Drive channel.

The drive channel sounds MUCH better than the hot rod deluxes drive...in my opinion. This distortion sounds abit more aggresive but it sounds really nice. the drive channel consists a Drive, volume, treble, bass and middle knob.

Then there is the effects i told you about earlier.
first of all theres a reverb knob..what i don't like about is that theres almost to much reverb...i only use it at like 1 or 2...but it sounds like a real reverb ..but it's digital.
then theres the Chorus and Delay knob.

The chorus and delay shares the same three knobs but there a switch for "adjust Chorus/delay" so when it's on delay the 3 knobs are adjusting the Delay and when its on chorus the 3 knobs adjustes the Chorus.

the three knobs are "Time/rate", "mix" and "depth".

I dont know how to describe how it all works in words but all i can say is that they sound good!!

The chorus is kinda funny cause i can get the "cold shot" by srv kinda sound but also i can make it do "pitch-bending" which i found fun to use at home but i dont think ill ever use it live.

Also this amp is not heavy at all so its easy to carry it around for gigs...i have just owned this amp for like 15 hours so there's still alot to check out!

Also I'd like to add that my Ibanez TS7 Tubescreamer sounds REALLY NICE with the clean channel...i love it!

Gonna shot a video of me playing it soon so you can hear what it sounds like.

There's a short description of it...however the guy in the video says the clean channel breaks up nicely...mine doesn't break up at all and on other reviews people say it doesn't break up neither...don't know how the guy in the video makes it break up...

Will do a "real" review later!
Sorry for my bad english

Rock on // Simon

Cool dude!  Have you played it next to a RI Deluxe Reverb?  The cleans sound pretty close and you get all the effects and gain channel as well...cool amp and cool guitar!
