The Fender Hot Rod DeVille is a combo tube guitar amplifier manufactured and sold by Fender. It was introduced in 1996 as part of Fender's Hot Rod line of amplifiers, and since then has been in continuous production. The Hot Rod DeVille is a modified version of the earlier Fender Blues DeVille from the Blues amplifier line and has a higher level of gain in its preamplification signal. The DeVille incorporates a 60 watt amplifier and has been offered in two different models: a 212, with 2, 12-inch speakers and a 410, with 4, 10-inch speakers. The 410 utilized 10" Fender Special Design speakers made by Eminence and was available for versions II and III. The 212 has been available through versions II, III and IV. The 212 has offered the following speakers: 12" Fender Special Design by Eminence for version II, 12" Celestion G12-P80 for version III, and 12" Celestion A-Type for version IV.[1][2] Fender described version III as incorporating modifications to the preamp to provide the drive channels with "more modern distortion," switching to Celestion speakers for the 212, and changing the control panel from chrome to black, for better visibility on stage. Fender described version IV as incorporating modifications to the preamp to provide the drive channels with "better definition of the notes," changing the type of Celestion speaker, and modifying the reverb unit to provide "smoother" and more controllable reverb. The DeVille is the sister amplifier of the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe.
