    I used to have one of these, mine had different speakers with Huge, two to three times the size of those magnets. they were perfectly square magnets. The weight of the combo was truly ridiculous. it had to have casters. I was 18 at the time and still struggled to carry it. I eventually got rid of it after carrying it into a gig one night up a set of stairs it was so heavy the shitty centre handle snapped under its own weight and the metal core of he strap sheared off and stabbed me in the hand. Seriously deep injury involving hospital and multiple stitches. Doctor said it was millimetres from my artery. Fucking thing nearly killed me. Research showed that it was Ted Nugent's idea, who was a fender artist at the time, who was following on the Pete Townsend bandwagon of more watts equals bigger balls.
    The coolest thing about that amp was the removal of the trem/vib circuit and the inclusion of a active tube driven parametric eq. The audiophile Hifi enthusiast that purchased it off me lost the entire cabinet rebuilt the amp into a beautiful mahogany cabinet. He now uses it to drive his £20.000 vintage tannoy speaker system at home. I've still never heard anything like it to this day. The guy was genius. It went to a good home

      In case any kids here don’t know, Ted Nugent used 3-8 of these at a time, all dimed, and each one was run through a dual showman 2x15 cab. Not sure if the 2x12 speakers ran at same time or only the 2x15

    I have a 1975 non reverb version, makes more sense to me as they don’t use the 6C10 valve.
    Have to say an excellent unsung amp, the eq can get you any tone you want. And don’t let reviews or”know all“
    Forums mislead you, when you adjust the gain, passives and eq you can get a glorious sound at levels you don’t have to wear ear defenders ( no disrespect intended)
    Knobs are there to be twiddled 😄
    Yes the inbuilt distortion is shite, so what ? Don’t use it.
    How many Twin users use a non modified normal channel?
    Again thanks for all your videos man, great job great playing
    All the best

  • @MichaelSmith-rn1qw

    I have this amp. I built a separate case for the chassis. Mine has the huge square magnets. I also had it modified to disable the distortion effect, and to be switchable between 25 and 100 watts (2 6L6's removed). So now it's basically a Twin Reverb.

    I would have never thought to improve a Twin by making it louder. It must have been an interesting board meeting the day that decision was made.
    I ordered my '71 Twin with JBLs... having no master volume, the only gigs where I could crank it to distortion were outdoors.
    Very nice demo, your Twin sounds beautiful. You might need to hand out ear muffs to the audience, though. 😊

    Love this amp for practice or local gigs, hated it for the road. Took one on tour '78-'79 across Western Canada by bus in winter, and it broke constantly. Spent all my breaks with a soldering iron and cursing, even with amp moved in road case & tubes pulled & stored separately. Build quality was very, very sloppy. So, mixed memories, although I love the sound.

    It's a generally hated amp but some great players love them. Phil Emmanuel (Tommy's bro) used to visit a store I worked in and eventually owned. He always said the Super Twin was one of the very best Fender amps ever made but the problem was that hardly anyone knew how to set them for a good tone. The tone is there but you have to work for it a little. They make an absolutely killer bass guitar head through the right cab too. Man they are LOOOUUUD!

    Hi Johan, I recently managed to acquire a Fender Super Twin for only Au$300.00, it's actually the chassis that's been fitted into the wooden cabinet for a Blackface Fender Bassman, my Super Twin is the one without the reverb circuit though, I'm going to be doing some restoration work on it soon even though the guy who sold it to me says that it does work, going to buy a set of new preamp valves for it, but I think the six STR 6L6 Valves in it are most likely still okay, I need to get a Quad Box to plug it into before I start gigging with it, or at least a 2 X 12 Cab that can handle at least 400 Watts Peak, it's a cool restoration project though.

    With the Les Paul, you've nailed the tone of early 70's heavy psych groups as Morly Grey, Top Drawer and Hindenburg Lyon, that i'm pretty sure that they've all used Fender sounding clones like Traynors, and even a mexican guitarist from the 70's called Armando Nava, leader of the psychedelic band los Dug Dug's, used a silverface Twin Reverb in recordings, while in gigs used Acoustic amps, but with the difference that he used an SG and surprisingly enough, he also nailed the John Cipollina's tone, that was basically made from a custom made SG and gigantic hybrid stack of blackface Fenders and solid state Standells.

      It’s great to hear all the esoteric pieces of information that pull it all together. One can infrequently run into one of these amps in a California pawnshop, usually dusty off in a corner. The more dust on the price tag, The more money you subtract from your offer. Know what you’re buying though, I think there’s 11 tubes in there of which two are 3 in 1, Compactron types, and a With a layout that looks nothing like some of the thoughtful well laid lead dress One would find in a TrainWreck, Early Cornford, Matchless, or Roccaforte amplifier.

    I have sympathetic tinnitus - I think I would be using the gun range trick of in-ear plugs along with the over-ears. I've got an 18W amp that peels paint when turned up, and this is twice as loud! But, it sounds absolutely fantastic - great playing choices Johan.

      I'm usually annoyed by my wife not allowing loud playing, but I guess I should thank her periodically for saving my ears lol.

      Mike McCourt Get custom molded earplugs if you can. Cuts outside sounds by ~30DB and maintains a fairly clean frequency response as well (not to mention being super comfortable).

      I cannot not be a nerd, but this one is - if you only look at the Wattage - a bit more than thrice as loud ;) Efficiency of speakers (unknown) and size of sound source (probably bigger than your 18W amp) not counted :D

    Yup, I had one once. Bought in a pawn shop for $350, I took it home and resoldered the reverb unit. I usually paired it with a Ross Distortion pedal and an old Strat. SRV all day, man!

    I'm not a fan of Fender amps
    But I do have a soft spot the super twin series.
    But I had no idea they were this versatile.
    It's precisely this sort of amp that defines why tube amps are still so sort after.

    I have the same amp minus the reverb. It is truely a magical tone, and window cracking. Must wear at least 18 db ear protection. Found it 7 years ago in a used guitar shop for $500. If it didn't weigh 100 lbs, I'd take it to bed and sleep with it. To say I love it, is an understatement.

    I played a Firebird through one of theses and it was the richest sound ever . It was sitting in a flight case in perfect condition as basically it was sat up to play gigs and laid down for moving around . I asked if I could put one of these in my loft where my guitars are to play -not a chance as at 28 kg plus I’d need a block and tackle to move it ! I have now bought an old Marshall AVT 100 at 24 kg it’s a lightweight and remains though on the ground floor but still hanker for one of these beasties!

      When I was a youngster I moved a Sunn Colosseum with JBL’s up the skinny staircase of my aunts large farmhouse. One stair at a time it was tough but Worth it when I could open up the windows and blast it out to the island. There was also a set of Electro Voice eliminator’s, With 215’s and a Horn, but they were too wide to go up through the door or the stairs. I would’ve had to take the door off the hinges and remove the handrail. She would not have been happy.

    I had one of these about 24 years ago while I was a student. Picked it up for a steal because it had been damaged in a fire. Restored it and used to crank it good and solid. I kick myself now for ever selling it. I was young and stupid and didn't realise the gem I actually had.

    I’ve always loved the sound of these but they just have so much power and more volume than I could ever use. I’ve always thought a Super Twin preamp on a Pro Reverb power section would be a great sounding amp.

    You can tell how loud it is by looking at how quiet Johan starts playing at 0:31, compared to most of his videos.

    Wow this beast really has it's own thing going on Jon. It sure doesn't sound like any twin I've ever heard but that's not a critique.
    As we all know the old twins give great clean sounds but aren't really known for producing good sounding distortion.
    This one how ever really DOES have a great kind of rude low rent distortion that slaps you around in a good way like when you pass out dead drunk slouched over the toilet bowl and your buddy give you a couple of quick smacks to wake your ass up!
    This is the sonic version of that scenario. lol
