This is the go to tube amp for any serious guitar player. In my opinion this is what other manufacturers try to imitate. No reason to change what is still the "Gold Standard".
Way to go "Fender"!

I grew up on Charvel and Marshall. I'm a Fender guy now. I did a parts build of David Gilmour's Black Strat and it just didn't have that sweetness through my Plexi and a 4x12. Just got my Fender Twin and it brought my guitar to life! It's literally expanding my capabilities because it's just completely different then my hairband Charvel. Kinda makes me feel grown up. I would recommend this amp for anyone playing a Fender. There's a reason Fender makes guitars 'and' amps.

Of all the amps I own (14 and counting) this is by far the best one. The Twin Reverb has the most clean and organic clean channel I’ve experienced. But what it doesn’t brag about is it’s awesomely grimy, warm and fuzzy sounds it gets with a little overdrive. This is the perfect amp for rock, blues, jazz, country, surf and punk. With a 12 month plan, this is a ridiculously affordable amp and well worth it.

Super Clean Tone

Product Review
After doing some research on what amp would best suit my needs, I landed on the Fender Twin Reverb. The reputation this amp has is what drew me to it, the super clean tone is what sold me. It has massive amounts of headroom to run pedals and I like having that kind of control of the tones I'm looking for. I've had this amp for the past couple weeks and the only con to this amp is the weight. It is quite heavy, so if you have a bad back like I do... let someone else move it for you.

This is by far one of the best combo amps I've ever purchased.If you love sweet tone then this is the one for you.Plugged in my fender Strat and was literally blown away.Great job Fender I've owned several of your amps and this is one of the better sounding combo amps you've produced. Sorry I missed out on the 100watt supersonic, fender had already stopped production on it by the time i realized what they were offering. Would love to see that one come around again. I can only imagine how it would sound with a little tweaking.

Your general opinion of this product.
Years and years have passed since the first Fender Twin rolled off the assembly line. Fender may not have known it at the time but they had built a legend. The Fender Twin has seen stages all over the world. No matter if you play Gospel, Funk, Rock, Blues, Jazz, or Country music, the Fender Twin will do the job and not only just do the job but provide you with the fattest tone, most headroom, and absolutely help the guitarist to achieve his ultimate tone. In my opinion, the Fender Twin amplifier sits atop the mountain in guitar amplification. A time tested legend to say the least.
The Fender Twin is quality at it`s best. Years of building these amps would suggest that each amp is built to perfection. I personally have never had any issues with any of mine.
There is no doubt that the Twin is a bit on the heavy side but with tone and quality like this, who cares...
The tone of the Fender Twin amplifier is world renowned. The clean headroom this amplifier provides is 2nd to none. Many of the up and coming amp manufacturers strive to even get near the tone of the Fender Twin.
N/A
The classic finish to the chassis and housing of the Fender Twin is simply yet perfect.
The Fender Twin amplifier is as reliable as they come. Do a search and you will find many Twins from every decade since the first Twin was built.

The King of "Clean"
By: BluesPicker from Merrimack, New Hampshire
Submitted: 12/22/2012

As far as amps go, it's hard to beat a Fender Twin. The '65 Fender Twin RI is solid as a rock and built to last.
I've owned this amp about a month and have put it through its paces with my band. Although I have a "backup" amp by default (just happen to have another amp), I have no doubts about its reliability. I would be comfortable gigging this without a backup.
Your general opinion of this product.
I put off buying a Twin because of the cost. Now that I've taken the plunge and have one, I kick myself for waiting so long. I've been playing guitar for almost 50 years and have seen a lot of amps come and go from my stable. The '65 Twin RI is one of those rare amps that stand out fromn the others and is a bonafide "keeper". It is well built, solid, dependable and delivers the goods, at least for the type of music I play.
This is a heavy amp. There is no getting around it. Too bad Fender doesn't build these with castors on them. However, I do have a collapsible dolly that makes moving thing a breeze.
This amp is ideal for blues, garage band-era '50s and '60s rock, country and jazz. It is a maximum clean amp, as well. It just won't "break up" on its own. However, it does love and take pedals well, and I use a TubeScreamer when I want to get some light overdriven sounds from it. It has basic treble, middle and bass controls, and they are sensitive to adjustments. Add some of the built-in, tube driven tremolo and tank reverb and you have a killer classic amp. I'm not a huge effects guy but I have found that I've had to use an EQ pedal to fatten things up a bit with just about every other amp I've owned. Not so with the Twin. It's great to just plug a guitar (Strat or Les Paul) straight into the amp and leave the pedals packed away. Some folks will say this amp is not built for metal. perhaps, but I think it could be adapted with a good distortion or overdrive pedal.
Fit and finish are flawless.
N/A -- It's not a guitar, but a guitar amp.

I bought this amp because I am pathologically set in my ways. Played through a Bandmaster many years ago, and this is the closest thing available. I'm playing '50s and 60s rock'n'roll with a band I've just put together and DARNED if this thing doesn't sound exactly like my high school days. For evoking memory, this is as good as eating a madellaine (a la Marcel Proust). I had a Marshall amp before this. Give me that old-timey Fender tube sound.

QUALITY:
Fender hit the nail on the head when they reissued this amp. Why spend thousands on a vintage if you looking for a gigging amplifier go for this one. The pots are nice and smooth....very fluid when adjusting the amp. Flawless tolex covering to the amp itself...no dog ears or unglued tabs. WORTH EVERY PENNY! so much so I have TWO of them!!!
FEATURES:
Ok for you amp switching gurus out there.....this is NOT your amp. A one channel, simple layout, TONE to the bone amplifier! Bright switch is useful but be judicial when flicking it on
EASE OF USE:
This is super easy to use......you just have to sit down and take time to find YOUR sound which is painless.
VALUE:
ok for a reissue, this is the best value on the market for an ALL TUBE original spec amplifier. If they cost 1500-2000 bucks i'd still covet one! Very affordable and Fender should keep it that way for the gigging musicians out there
