Inspired from the Fender tweed deluxe amplifiers, Eric Clapton contacted esteemed amplifier maker Dennis Cornell to make him an 80 Watt Fender Tweed deluxe style amplifier for a more powerful ‘Brown Sound'. Cornell came back with the custom 80 (80 watts) and was later contacted by other customers to halve the power output and the amount of speakers (2 to 1 speaker) of the custom 80 to make the custom 40. But with two custom 40s you can easily match the power of a single custom 80 matching Clapton's prowess.
