Hey
I tried the new Steel King today with my Fender quad. Fender is back,well,they never really left.It was those who didnt think Fender was watching. They were and they have
a GREAT amp in the Steel King..It kicks you
know what. And that Twin with the 15" speaker
floored me.I thought well ,hell I'll go on the road again for my alma mater..seriously
these are GREAT amps and I am so happy I took my triple Custom and Quad to my Fender franchised buddy dealer.
He too was vibrating from the low end to the
top end...I mean his head wise guys.
Sam Marshall and Shane Nicholas deserve the credit for this project and the steel guitar sound that Leo invented is back in good hands and full swing with a GREAT sound that will more than compliment any brand of guitar
Many thanks to a great marketing team and a great Executive Vice President whom I knew the day he was born that he would someday wear Fender tweed underwear.  Larry Moudy Fenders Best who just what seems only a few short years ago started out as a Fender sales rep like myself now heads up a winning team of great people.
Sam..do you have to advertise your last name as Marshall? no offense, but that name overdrives my speakers and I get than Van Halen Brown sound..How about Sam Fender? I'm sure Leo wouldnt mind sharing that name.
You guys are still the best. Save a spot for me, I can sell the amp casters for AARP members and drive the Fender excursion bus to tour the factory.
Don Johnston..He was with Fender the day I was born...meet me on West 48th street and I'll buy you all a good ole New York Pastrami sandwich. and a stale pizza, I get an extra 10% on a quantity order, so bring along your sales force. I get a 40% discount on all Pizza's...Its a show of respect to me. 
Keep em comin, they are the BEST.
Best to all of you

From what I heard when I played through your new products,the Fender Magic is alive and well.
Keep on doing what you are doing and my best
to Larry and Don and all of the Tweed Team.
And we all know that "There
Is No Sound Like The Sound Of A Fender" I knew that back in 1949.
Best to all of you. And to Joe Carducci the
Hit Man at Fender |

Alot of folks seem to be commenting on the
weight. Gee....if I remember right, back
when I had a NV400 for many years that it
was also around 65 lbs. or so wasn't it?
My old '65 Twin Reverb is also in the same
ballpark. The Evans & Webb amps might be a
little lighter, but not a heckuva lot.

According to our UPS scales, the Nashville 400 weighs 57lbs.....always has. Packed, it weighs approximately 66lbs.

hmmmmmm....
Gold is $400 an ounce, 65 pounds would be $416,000.
I can get you a better price, call me.

The casters (included in USA models) are also worth their weight in gold!
Jody,
for our information, how close are your nearest neighbors? I know from experience that a Steel-King can drown out the neighbor kid's car stereo within the confines of my home (the car stereo is currently broken, thank goodness!).
Regards,

With regard to your comments. I find that my dogs are unable to lift their legs on the sofa, The volume of your amp causes spasms
of the dogs vital productive organs thereby
keeping the dogs from voiding on the carpet.
When I play through your amp my dogs have a look of despair,I think the Steel King has nuetered them by the excessive low end the amp produces. Questions?? anyone  |
