Email Article Fender has just released it's new line of Eric Clapton Signature amplifiers!
These amplifiers are handwired and built in Corona, California. The EC Twinolux™, EC Tremolux™ and EC Vibro-Champ®—are fascinating variations on their original '50s-era ancestors (the '57 Twin™, '57 Deluxe™ and '57 Champ®, respectively), and are Fender's answer to the call for special models with distinctive features.
All three amp models feature 1950's era output tube bias tremolo (which produces a more throbbing pulse than later Fender tremolo circuits) and a switchable power attenuator that reduces speaker output, in addition to other premium features.
Check out Fender's announcement. And here's a video of Buddy Guy playing the Fender EC Twinolux:
