70s Fender Twin Reverb
Description
Firstly, silverface Twin Reverbs are really cool amps. There's nothing you cant do with one and there's not a gig (or living room) which can't be improved with the addition of a genuine Fender Twin Reverb. There's not a style of music which isn't played on a Twin. The tone is simply magical, there's a chime to the trebles and the mids and bass tones just rock. I'm a jazzer and this amp is so jazz, but I always play something rocky and riffy when I fire it up and plug in, cos it's so play-me-baby-rock-me-gently.
If it is a gig, then it's got the chrome tilt legs so that its warm tube sounds can rise up from the stage and gently overcome the willing audience, knees trembling with every chord and tone you play.
Beware though, this amp is very loud. It'll go all the way to 10 without distorting - which is why it's so good of course - a basic, clean, vintage sound which you can control from your guitar or with FX. It has a push/pull master volume if you want a slightly boosted sound (most owners dont know its there and ignore it even when they find it) and treble, middle bass and volume for each channel. There's reverb and tremolo on B plus a footswitch for channel switching and reverb.
Dating from 75 -79, this amp has a good set of Russian tubes with the bias correctly set (we do actually care enough about these things to set-up our amps before we sell them, you know), 12 month warranty.
You might have guessed by now that I could talk about this amp all day, so just click on the contact link and we will.
Dont take my word for it
Wander on over to harmony central and read dozens of pages of reviews like these:
…considered by many to be the gold standard…
…This amp makes most any guitar sound like a million dollars…
This amp is the real deal. It's everything you've heard it is. If you find one you can afford, buy it, care for it and NEVER get rid of it.
Awesome. No wonder why there's such a frenzy to get a hold of vintage gear these days.
