’57 Custom Pro-Amp
The late-’50s tweed-covered Fender Pro-Amp combined great looks
with sweet tone, medium output power and the unique performance
characteristics of a single 15” guitar speaker. Hailed as one of the holy
grail “narrow-panel tweed” amps beloved by guitarists and collec-
tors, vintage examples are rare and highly sought after.
The ’57 Custom Pro-Amp continues that legacy, with all-tube hand-
wired circuitry and premium components. It faithfully recreates the
tones of the original classic 5E5-A design, delivering about 28 watts
of warm, sensitive response. A Special Design 15” ceramic-magnet
speaker by Eminence® is voiced for big, fat guitar tone with sensi-
tive response, and new reverse-engineered ’50s vintage “Yellow”
tone capacitors add subtly nuanced tonal magic. Along with custom
transformers, internal bias control for easy substitution of various 6L6
power tube types, instrument and microphone inputs, nger-joined
solid pine cabinet, lacquered tweed covering and more, the result is a
richly rewarding amplier experience that’s pure Fender.
The ’57 Custom Pro-Amp’s harmonically rich clean tones are perfect
for recreating classic guitar styles, while today’s pedalboard enthusi-
ast will also nd an ideal tonal canvas for creating new sounds. And
with the volume cranked, the naturally touch-sensitive overdrive
tone is simply electrifying.

Control Panel
A. FUSE: Provides electrical over-current protection. With power
disconnected, replace a blown fuse only with one of the type
and rating specied above the fuse holder.
B. POWER SWITCH: Turns amp on and o. Both the POWER and
STANDBY (C) switches must be on for audible output.
C. STANDBY SWITCH: Disables speaker output while power is on.
To extend tube life, leave switch in STANDBY position for rst 60
seconds after turning POWER (B) on. Instead of turning amp o
during short breaks, set switch to STANDBY position to further
extend tube life and to avoid tube-warmup delay when resum-
ing play.
D. POWER INDICATOR: Illuminates when amp is on.
E. PRESENCE: Ultra-high frequency tone control adds greater
high-end sparkle.
F. BASS: Tone control for lower frequencies.
G. TREBLE: Tone control for higher frequencies.
H. INSTRUMENT VOLUME: Adjusts volume level of both instru-
ment inputs.
I. MICROPHONE VOLUME: Adjusts volume level of both micro-
phone inputs.
J. INSTRUMENT INPUTS: Plug instruments in here. Input 2 has
lower sensitivity (-6dB) for cleaner response with high-output
and pre-amplied instruments. Input sensitivities are identical
when using both inputs simultaneously.
K. MICROPHONE INPUTS: Plug microphones and instruments
in here. It was common in the 1950s to use guitars and mi-
crophones simultaneously with tube amps, and these inputs
produce a distinctive alternative guitar tone. Input 2 has lower
sensitivity (-6dB) for cleaner response with high-output and
pre-amplied instruments. Input sensitivities are identical when
using both inputs simultaneously.

Chassis Rear View
L. POWER CORD: Connect to a grounded outlet in accordance
with the voltage and frequency specications noted on the
amplier information label, which is located inside the cabinet
on the left when viewing from the rear.
M. RECTIFIER TUBE: Single 5AR4 rectier tube converts AC voltage
from the amplier’s power transformer into DC voltage required
by the power (N) and preamp tubes (Q). It should be replaced
with an identical rectier tube or one with a comparable rating
and quality, although a 5U4 rectier tube can be substituted to
produce lower-gain tone typical of the original era.
N. POWER TUBES: Dual 6L6GC power tubes drive the power sec-
tion of the amplier. These should be replaced only with identi-
cal power tubes or those with a comparable rating and quality.
O. INTERNAL SPEAKER JACK: The ’57 Custom Pro-Amp’s single
internal speaker connects here using a right-angle plug. A single
external speaker can also be used instead of the internal speaker
(note that this requires disconnection of the internal speaker), but
it must be rated at 8 ohms and it must be connected to this jack
and not to the Extension Speaker Jack (P).
Also note that the amp can be damaged by using a single ex-
ternal speaker plugged into the Extension Speaker Jack (P) with
nothing plugged into the Internal Speaker Jack. Whether internal
or external, an 8-ohm speaker must be connected to the Internal
Speaker Jack when the power is on, or the amplier can be dam-
aged.
P. EXTENSION SPEAKER JACK: This speaker jack enables the use
of an external 8-ohm speaker in addition to the internal speaker.
Also, two external 8-ohm speakers can be used by plugging them
into the Internal (O) and Extension Speaker jacks (note that this re-
quires disconnection of the internal speaker, and that the custom
transformer will switch to 4-ohm operation when both jacks are
used). Also note that the amp can be damaged by using a single
external speaker plugged into the Extension Speaker Jack with
nothing plugged into the Internal Speaker Jack (O).
Q. PREAMP TUBES: Dual 12AX7 preamp tubes (high gain) and a
single 12AY7 preamp tube (for lower-gain tone typical of the
original era) drive the preamp section of the amplier. Alternate-
ly, another 12AX7 preamp tube can be substituted for the 12AY7
tube to achieve higher gain.
