Vintage 1965 Fender Deluxe Reverb + Semi-Hollow Tones! | Fuzz Face, Tubescreamer & Scumback Swap

Step inside the legendary tones of a vintage 1965 Fender Deluxe Reverb—one of the most iconic tube amps ever made. In this video, I pair my Josh Williams Mockingbird loaded with Tone Specific Bloombuckers to unlock warm cleans, articulate edge-of-breakup tones, and searingly rich fuzz textures.
This Deluxe Reverb has undergone a thoughtful speaker upgrade to a Scumback Speakers S75-PVC (8 ohm, 65w) while keeping the bright cap intact on Vibrato channel 1—delivering sparkling highs and vintage-accurate breakup that sits perfectly in a mix.
For drive and fuzz, I showcase the Jam Pedals Black Fuzz Phrase LTD (OC44) for authentic Fuzz Face magic, alongside the Greer Amps Southland Overdrive, which pushes the amp into soulful, dynamic sustain without losing clarity.
