FNDR BFSR 1965

One of the most musical Fender Amp good for almost any kind of guitar

Magic with frequencies and responses. Exactly right amount of all electric guitar pickups spectrum. Great captures!

Now THIS is an amp

Have always loved this amp. Our lead guitarist in a band I was in used have one and I always would ask him if could play it. The V1 captures were very good but V2 sets a new standard. You will get nothing but Blackface Fender goodness from these captures!

Now THIS is Fender tone!

There were three captures that received "V2" upgrades and the upgrade of the Super Reverb is excellent. I remember being very excited seeing the V1 Super Reverb, which was one of Amalgam's early releases. Relative to other captures available at that time, it sounded great, but we have literally THOUSANDS more options here in early 2025. The V2 Super Reverb is a HUGE release with something like 46 captures, including three variations of Tubescreamer captures. If you felt V1 was a little "muffled", V2 has fully corrected that. The Super Reverb can sound "big", but also sparkle at the same time, and this capture is full of classic Fender Blackface tones.

Excellent!

First class Blackface sounds, both clean and overdriven. Sounds great with Stratocaster and Les Paul.

Hail the King

Yep.  Super Reverb pushed into edge is a thing of beauty... use a higher gain capture and clean up with your gtr volume.  Done.  If you have a power amp and a 4x10 cab, do yourself a favor and run one of these DIs into it and turn up.  Bliss.

Not only a clean machine

Awesome edge of breakup tones and saggy, gooey, crunched out tones as well, not only surfey clean stuff.

The Fender BF Profile Standard

I was in-need of a Fender blackface amp profile set that I would use regularly. Out of curiosity, I tried the BFSR profiles by Amalgam. This set is outstanding. There is a realism and dimensionality that many other profiles lack. I’ll mainly use the cleaner profiles, but I’m finding some of the driven sounds to be useful with a Stratocaster and the insertion of an 808 OD. I also purchased the Marshall SL pack. I would think there are more purchases to come. Bring on the Tweed!

outstanding

I am addicted to tone X captures I have tried at least three other suppliers but in my opinion amalgam audio are by far the best !! They the best in the range of captures you get and in the quality of what you get. They are also hugely helpful when it comes to support. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these to other players.

All the sound - none of the drawbacks

I got to play a Super Reverb once. Loved the sound, but it's so big and much too loud to be practical for me.  These captures solve the problem.  They sound so good.  Expansion set next!

Masterful captures - Very satisfying results.

Generally speaking, I'm perfectly happy with the stock amplifiers in the QC, as well as the huge range of free captures that are available. However, after hearing Amalgam Captures on a YouTube video, I thought I'd give their Super Reverb captures a shot. I'm really glad I did. The natural feel and detail of the captures raise the bar to a new level. I also found the collection of EQ'd captures that come in the pack made it much easier for me to get a considerably better fit for an individual mix.

Great black face Fender sound

I really like this set of profiles. It includes both normal and vibrato channels. It ranges from clean to edge of break up crunch drive to solo. It also includes studio liquid profile, and DI liquid profile. For my live use, this would be one set that I would need and not need anything else. I compare this to my best profiles. Compared to M Britt profiles. This is much less compressed, more natural with better dynamics. Karlis definitely knows what he’s doing and his amp is miced perfectly. I also noticed that there are no other gimmicks or adjustments done in terms of definition, clarity and other Kemper adjustments. Most of these are pretty dry without any processing in the Kemper, which to me, speaks even more for the quality of the profiles. Great work!

Very well done

Tonex comes to live with these great captures. Very usable and flexible with the wide spectrum of different gain levels Works very well in band context with power amp and speaker cabinet. Highlight recommended!

An absolute game changer

Black panel super reverb has always been my favorite clean tones and tbh using the quad has made me miss physical amps for the first time in years. Literally as soon as I loaded up the first capture and IR set, that was immediately dismissed. These sound bright, lively, and three dimensional just like the amp I love. If you’re not in love with the Quad yet, this will change your opinion I’m sure.

This is Fender

I was wanting a capture for crystal cleans and this Fender pack had sound I was hearing in my head. These captures are very versatile and take pedals extremely well. From jazz to blues to 80s ballads Amalgamaudio has got you covered with this pack. What pleasantly surprised me were the crunch tones. They simply inspire you for foot stomping rocking out. Definitely got much more than I was expecting to get from the pack.

Excellent!

Out of the 6,000+ captures on ToneHunt.org, I’m so grateful to have discovered Amalgam captures. I was so impressed that I purchased several sets. These are the best and most realistic amp sounds I’ve been able to get in the box by a significant margin. They work great independently, but more important for me is how well they work in the context of a mix. As an audio engineer/mixer, I sometimes get files of poorly recorded amps, so if I'm provided with the guitar DI recordings, these will work beautifully and give me additional options. Even with quality recordings, I would have no reservations about replacing or combining them with Amalgam captures for a different tone. Separately, for my own songs and playing, they pair wonderfully with my Epiphone Casino and Strat. P.S. I forgot to sign in when making my purchase, so I’m unsure if this review will show as a verified purchase, but I assure you I am. I bought 5 Core Captures during the promotion and will purchase the other sets. I highly recommend these. Five stars all the way - thank you, Amalgam, and I look forward to all future releases.

Sounds amazing,

I've been trying it out and it sounds amazing, lots of captures covering all types of tones. The cleans with my strat are the best I've tried. Great job, I need more amps.

Great for vintage fender

Sounds and feels like a vintage fender blackface amp.

Like Fender Amps? Get This One!

If you're drowning in the rising tide of ToneNet free captures, Amalgam Audio's Tonex captures are a life raft. They are full, rich, and provide a range of very usable tones. And if you love the sound of Fender combo amps, this one is a keeper!

A great set of captures

The Super Reverb is on of my favourite amps and this is a great set of captures. As it captured with a 2x12 it sounds more like a Pro Reverb, but that is not a bad thing. Highly recommended if you are into vintage tones.

Perfect!

Another great capture by these guys, sounds just like the real thing, could play for days. Mary highly recommend it.

Strat heaven

One of my all time favourite amps and this capture set knocks it out of the park! Plug in your strat style guitar of choice and disappear into tone heaven! Highly recommended.

Top Quality Captures

The captures provided for this amp are unbelievable. You get so many options, all neatly categorised into what we as performing guitarists want. Clean, Crunch, Drive, Dimmed, Edge, and Lead, all carefully dialled in. Add in some amp specfic IR's. On top of this, there is a really helpful PDF with each capture. Tone wise, you couldn't ask for more. The clean captures are beautiful and immediately recognisable as a high end Vintage Fender sound. Then come the incremental gain captures all the way up to some lead sounds that really ring out. I knocked up a full rig in one preset with four of the cpatures, some reverb, delay and a comp on the clean sound. Crystal clear. What's also really helpful is the narrative in the PDF about what has been used. For this Black Face Super Reverb, they've used a single coil as you'd expect but there is a recommendation around db adjustment on the gain input for Humbuckers. I've created two presets for this capture set - one with the normal gain settings for my Suhr Classic S, and a HB preset with reduced gain for my Les Paul Standard. Spend some time dialling in the correct gain and other settings so you can enjoy this on your HB guitars, Overall, it's briliant, and has gone immediately into my live set list.

stellar fender captures

wonderful set of fender tones here, ranging from pristine bell like to thick grunt. All without ice pick highs. Plenty of shades to find what you need. Lovely with a strat/reverb
