The Ivy League amplifier from Victoria Amps is built with the Fender's classic 5F10 Harvard circuitry, complete with three inputs, a 10"x10" speaker, and a sound that is bigger than one would expect from the extremely portable 16.5"x20"x9.5", 14 watt combo amp. In short, this is a perfect replica of Fender's Harvard style amplifiers. Performing wonderfully with both clean tones and thundering overdrive, the Ivy League is perhaps at its best with the classic Memphis guitar sound. Check out this video for a variety of performances with the amp. If you want that great vintage sound with modern reliability, check out the Ivy League today.
