Keith Richard of the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton have been playing this amp on stage for over 20 years and it sounds amazing. The '57 Custom Twin amp replicates the original low-power tweed tweed twitch circuit, coveted for its sweet, singing tone and highly responsive dynamics. This responsive hand-wired amplifier produces clear tone with a bit of "hair" to bring out the expressiveness and nuance of your playing.
Robust and powerful, this pedal-friendly performer offers almost limitless sound shapes. The magic of the '57 Custom Twin-Amp is in the 5E8A circuitry, which is powered by a single 12AY7 and three 12AX7 preamp tubes - a classic design that produces a wide range of useful, highly desirable tones. Ideal for playing clubs, this amp breaks open at reasonable volume while still effortlessly extracting pristine, clear, three-dimensional clear tones and greasy, greasy overdriven blues tones. The smooth-sounding bass, treble and presence rules shape your sound and offer a high level of interactivity, opening up a surprising wealth of sonic possibilities.
A duet of 6L6 power tubes produces 40 watts of power, giving your tone natural tube compression when you're "beaten," while a pair of growling 12" alnico speakers recreate the subtlest nuances of playing. The hand-wired circuit includes newly rocked yellow coupling capacitors chosen for authentic vintage Fender tone - glistening cleans and creamy overdrive with a smooth top and round mids. From its golden-brown tweed cover to the top-mounted control panel with classic chicken head control knobs, this Fender amp embodies vintage-style cool. A pair of dual-gaze and normal 1/4" inputs provides for both high, high, and low-output instruments, and reproduces the classic Fender sound.
The '57 Custom Twin Amp is a versatile sonic architect – timeless, flexible tone is balanced with clean power and stunning visual style. It includes a protective cover.
