Fender Concert Ii Owner`s Manual
December 29, 2011 at 6:21 am Owned mine since the 80’s, replaced the speaker (destroyed with guitar synth, my bad), power supply rebuilt – largely due to old age/dry caps – but otherwise for a 30 year old amp it’s a cracker! The reverb is particularly nice, gives a classic Fender clean sound and a nice crunch. I have the TAD small bottle 6L6WGC-STR’s in mine which sound a bit more ‘vintage’ and the amp is very quiet (in terms of unwanted noise and hiss). If you see one going for cheap second-hand, check it out. January 10, 2015 at 9:44 pm I just picked a head up and have paired it with a 2X12 cabinet running Celestion G12H80s.
The 12s are a bit mellower/rounder sounding than 10s, which are a bit edgier sounding. You can safely run Jensen C10Ns or Celestion Vintage 10s in this and probably won’t blow them up. Rivera was an EV fan. I think that’s overkill for this amp. It is plenty loud enough to play any gig.
It kicks out 60 watts, the same as a Vibroking. The clean is wonderful and the reverb is strong. The gain channel is okay sounding, but I’m thinking I’ll use a Wampler Tweed ’57 pedal instead. So far, I have about $600 invested in this rig. The amp needs a new rear panel and new grill cloth.

For the money, there isn’t a better deal in Rock ‘n’ Roll. May 23, 2015 at 5:23 pm Just picked one up, 1×12″ Have about $500 invested. Great deal for a solid amp. Beautiful Fender clean, plenty loud. Not crazy about the overdrive, sounds a little harsh and fizzy to me, but will play around with it a little more.Not bad weight, not as heavy as a Twin I had.

Reverb is great, Mine has original foot pedal to change channels,overdrive and reverb. I think I got a great deal on an awesome sounding amp.
I like it much better with single coils than with humbuckers •. September 25, 2016 at 3:42 pm I picked up the 210 combo model for $500 a couple of years ago. The guy had a cap job/resistor/power cord job done on it, but he was wanting a high-gain sound (and you’re not going to get it out of this amp), so he sold it to me. He had wanted the tech to hot-rod this thing, but (wisely) the tech said “hey, just get it fixed up-to-snuff like it should be and then sell it and buy a Marshall” Anyway, I agree with most of the other opinions here as far as: 1) The clean channel is just great. Really good stuff.
2)The OD channel – I have fiddled with it a lot and have just not found a good warm, on-the-edge sound out of it. I’ve seen the adjectives “fizzy” and “harsh” mentioned, and I agree. I got better results out of patching the EFX loop and using that as an extra gain stage with the clean channel. I use a Vox ToneLab LE in front of it for several different tones I need to cover the material I perform, and it’s fantastic for larger venues and outdoor shows. For a small club, not so much since it is a LOUD amp, almost as bad as a Twin and it doesn’t even open up until about “2.5 – 3.0” and then it’s in-your-face.
They seem to appreciate in value (one was at a local music store for $1100), so if you can grab on up for $500 – $600, do it.
