Classic Fender tube tone
The Fender Collection 2 for AmpliTube is the ultimate collection of original Fender amplifiers and reissues from the 1950s and 1960s. Take a trip back in time when the electric guitar and bass were new… when a “what if” mindset and some pretty wild and crazy ideas lead to some of the most toneful machines ever produced by one company, machines used to completely redesign the musical landscape from that point in time until today.
Gear available in Fender Collection 2
In Fender Collection 2 you’ll get all of the glorious “tweeds” from the '57 Custom Series, a refined, player-centric take on a classic platform that includes the ’57 Deluxe, the ’57 Champ, ’57 Pro, ’57 Twin and ’57 Bandmaster. Plus you get a spot-on model of an original 1953 Bassman and a 1965 blackface Super Reverb. With the ability to tweak every aspect of each, you’ll find exactly the tone you’re looking for.
It all comes down to this
Fender® Collection 2 loads your studio with an arsenal of historic models from the '50s and '60s, all certified by Fender. With complete control over seven iconic amps and as many cabs, you’ll find all the vibe, feel and sound your vintage-loving soul desires. What this means to you is pure authentic Fender amp tone, just as you'd expect it in the physical world, with a sound and feel so true you won't believe your ears... or your fingers.
No matter which AmpliTube you use, you’ll find that the Fender Collection 2 lifts your performance, taking your tone back to where it all began and beyond.
