A great client just traded this in, and it's amazing !! Excellent + condition. Still has protective plastic on the badge. This Tremolux is full of color and character, even at low volumes. The low wattage switch is incredible useful. Discontinued in 2012, and quite rare.

Built to Eric Clapton's specifications
The Fender EC Tremolux is the result of a historic collaboration between Fender and Eric Clapton. Eric Clapton wanted a special version of the iconic '57 Deluxe amp, so Fender went to work to produce a hand-wired combo voiced to Eric's preference. The result is a combo amp that embodies the warmth, depth, and character that classic Fender amps are known for.
Ready to rock on the road
Once you get your hands on the Fender EC Tremolux, you'll want everyone to hear it! Don't fret, the finger-joined solid pine construction makes the EC Tremolux as solid as a rock. The solid pine cabinet also helps the EC Tremolux sound warm, defined, and punchy, just like a good amp should sound. And the built-in power attenuator makes it ideal for smaller venues that have problems with too much stage volume - just turn down the speaker output, and you'll get the same awesome tone and response at a lower volume.
Handwired all-tube design
Electronically, the EC Tremolux is equipped with handwired all tube circuitry on an eyelet board with a late 1950s 5E3 circuit pumping out about 12 watts of true Fender tube tone. The tube complement consists of a pair of 12AX7s at the preamp stage with a matched pair of 6V6 output tubes. Fender also incorporated a 5Y3 rectifier tube, which contributes to natural tube compression and "sag" when the amp is pushed harder. And a tube-driven Bias Tremolo completes the picture, giving your tone extra dimension plus natural tube warmth.
