Fender Custom Shop '57 Twin Tweed Low Power 5E8-A Circuit 2x12 Tube Amp Relic

This unique Fender Custom Shop '57 Twin-Amp recreates the original "low-powered" tweed Twin platform, coveted for its sweet, singing tone and highly responsive dynamics, as well as its appearance, having been faithfully relic'd at the factory. It looks and sounds like the genuine vintage article and always gets compliments from those who appreciate the vibe and tone of a classic '50s Fender tweed amp.

The 5E8A circuit powered by two 12AY7 and two 12AX7 preamp tubes - a classic design that produces a wide range of useful, highly desirable tones. Ideal for playing clubs, this amp breaks up at reasonable volume while still cranking out pristine, clear, three-dimensional clean tones and fat, greasy overdriven blues tones effortlessly.

6L6 power tubes paired with two 5AR4 rectifier tubes creates robust power amp response, adding natural tube compression to your tone when "slammed", while a pair of newly designed growling 12" Eminence® Special Design alnico speakers replicates the subtlest playing nuances. The hand-wired circuit includes newly sourced yellow coupling capacitors chosen for authentic vintage Fender tone - sparkly cleans and creamy overdrive with smooth top end and round mids.

Note that item condition is noted as "excellent" as the cabinet, control panel and name badge were produced as relic'd items to replicate years of use, and that all electronics are in perfect condition and operate flawlessly.

Includes a protective black Tuki amp cover.
