    Vintage Fender Twin Reverb

    Its been awhile since I've posted but some awesome stuff happened lately and I've been dying to tell you guys about it.

    I got to play through, as the title suggests, a Vintage Twin Reverb. It belonged to my bands lead vocalists Grandmother. He brought it over to use as a vocal amp but I stopped him before he started using it. I asked to plug into it and it was....amazing...It sounded like two forest fairies make love on a toadstool on the first day of spring as the sun was rising behind them. I'll try to record some stuff through it and I'll let you guys hear it.

    old Twin Reverbs are great...I dunno know about that forest fairies/toadstool thing but they are cool.

    I got tired of hauling one around all the time so I don't but I don't think I'd ever get rid of mine either!
    If you just read a post by The Guy Who Invented Fire please understand that opinions change, mind sets change and as players our ears mature...not to mention our needs grow and change. With that in mind, today I may or may not agree with the post you just read!

        I hope those forest fairies were using protection.
        I am so close to retirement that I could play in a band full time. All I have to do is figure out what to use instead of money, improve my playing, learn some songs, and find some other musicians more talented than me who will do exactly as they're told. .

            Yea I know what you mean about carrying Fender Twin Reverbs - HEAVY

            Try the same with a Fender Super Reverb - Heavy and bulky

            BOTH are tone machines!

              i used to use a twin all the time, great amps but stoopid heavy. i have a dual showman reverb head now which is much more manageable but still LOUD abd clean. when you need a big firm bottom end, you really cant beat four 6L6's
