I bought a used mk4 recently. It was making the occasional noise like it might need new preamp tubes, so I took the opportunity to put a 12AY7 in V1 and a 5751 in V3. Its hair trigger volume knob thing is now not as bad, and the drive/more drive channels sound nicer than before. I'm not sure yet, but my overdrive pedal might be redundant now
Used one of these a while back. House amp already mic'd & soundchecked , as there were multiple bands on the bill, soundman insisted I plug in to it……best tone I ever heard , was reluctant to use my floor pedals. Fender has absolutely best built in reverb that breathes with your playing dynamics. Great demo & great playing, thanks.
Posess a 98 model. Hrd+ strat, nothing better!????
Excellent demonstration and great tones.
For years, I heard people complain about these amps (even though they are a world wide best seller – go figure). But I recently was doing some digging around – there is a particular Mark Knofler performance, from Berlin in 2007, where I thought his Les Paul tone was absolutely unparalleled. Comparing a single song, Brothers in Arms, from that concert to other live performances of it, nothing else sounded as good. So I thought, which amp is he using? His Soldano? A Marshall? Tweed Bassman (which can be seen on stage behind him)? Nope. Turns out it was a Hot Rod Deluxe sitting back there beside the Bassman. I was a little bit speechless.
input 2?
Run a volume pedal in tbe FX loop to get the loudness under control.
Great demo Sir! And you're a great guitar player!
Do they all have a weird sound to the mids? Almost like the pickup is out of phase? I can't really explain it. There's some artifact affecting the tone of anything from the middle of the fretboard. It's on multiple guitars so it's not the guitar.
sweet tones… great playin!
Can I use this if I live in apartment? I heard it’s too loud but I found a good deal on a 99 hrd
How do you have the volume up like that without blowing out your ears? I have an older HRD in my house and I can't put the volume past 1.5 before it gets really loud.
i added a marshal 1936 cab to my hot rod… its very good… so 80s like….who needs a pedal for this??? you dont know how to use it??
HOT ROD III…. You HAVE to write in the Title Hot Rod Deluxe III…..
how about one amazing hot rod deluxe tone with 2 cheap easy moves?
1.swap the first preamp tube to a ge (for cleans with p90's /humbuckers) or a vintage mullard (for strats and rock) they are sold used under 100$ on ebay .
2.swap that crappy speaker to a celestion creamback (used on reverb/ebay under 100$)
3.200$+ shipping and taxes and that's it! youre good to go for the studio or gigs.
enjoy!
Been trying to nail the classic clean all night. Thanks sounds perfect now.
The first few moments of playing, clean tones, exactly the hrdx signature sound. Lovely. (And fantastic pedal platform thereafter)
Great video. Made me stop hating my HRD IV. Much better setting than anything recommended directly by Fender, at least that I could find,
Love my HRD 4, its just too loud though. I play at 3.3 on volume and it still hits over 100 dB's.
Thanks for this video especially showing your amp settings. I have a HRD IV I bought about three years ago and haven't gotten the tone I wanted yet. I will try your settings next time I play the amp. I had an older HR Deville I gave my youngest son and I sure missed that amp. Thats why I bought the Deluxe. It was slightly lighter in weight. And I wanted that tone I got from the Deville. I have watched several YT videos on this amp and yours was by far the best and most informative. I am not a pedal guy except for a chorus pedal sometimes. I like to just use what I can get out of the amp. Thanks for the tip on using the low input plug. I have never tried it. The manual says its for guitars that have a pre amp built in to them.
