Fender Amp Can

July 11, 1997 -- Did you ever come across a player who wished he or she could plug in a guitar anytime and anywhere? Now there's a solution to that dilemma with Fender's new Amp Can -- a battery-powered, portable amplifier in a compact housing inspired by a paint can.

"As someone who has always enjoyed the great outdoors, the Amp Can allows me to pursue my two favorite pastimes -- music and camping," enthused Shane Nicholas, Fender amp product specialist. "I've used it to jam around the pool and to scare Bambi in the great outdoors with my Stevie Ray Vaughan impersonations. It lets me take my Tele® wherever I go. I know I'm not the only musician who wants to play electric in the wilderness."

The Amp Can boasts 20 watts of raw power, two fully independent channels (guitar and line/mic), push-button distortion, a rechargeable Gel-Cel battery, a handle that can be used as a "tip stand" for aiming sound, rugged PVC-cylinder housing, a specially designed Fender 6-inch speaker and true Fender quality. It's also safe to use near water. U.S. suggested retail price is $249.99.
