The Fender Custom Shop 57 Twin Amp brings back the wonders of the infamous 5E8A circuit. The incredible dynamic response and purity of tone of the 5E8A circuit are meticulously recreated in this Tweed Twin. The Tweed Twin is all hand wired point-to-point with high-quality components and Mercury Magnetics transformers. This 40-watt Twin is powered by USA made Groove Tubes 6l6GE power tubes and rectified by two 5U4s bringing back the late 50s Fender dual rectifier design. This reduces sag for a tighter overdrive tone when pushed. Add all this up and the Fender Custom Shop 57 Twin produces sweet chimey top end with lots of sparkle and a focused overdrive sound with tons of harmonic overtones and incredible dynamic response. The Fender Custom Shop 57 Twin has unbeatable dynamic response and tonality. Forget the rest, go with the best and check out Andy's demo of the Fender Tweed Twin.
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll - This video was recorded loudly. Andy was wearing earplugs, as a matter of fact. With this kind of amp you really have to turn it up to get a righteous, tube-saturation sound. You may check out the series of attenuators offered by Weber and other companies. A good attenuator can allow you to get power tube saturation at much more manageable levels. Hope that helps. Thanks!

This guy must just sit around and learn as many of the most historic guitar riff that he can think of...he is always breaking out the classics. Love it.
I bought this amp last year, play a Strat and a Les Paul. It is absolutely amazing. I play alot of Clapton, Hendrix, Black Keys, Black Crowes, even Tame Impala. I will never sell this amp. EVER. I would like to buy a Marshall 1974x or a deluxe to compliment it though, this sucker is pretty loud!
damn- 240p. I remember that...
that's the smoothest tube breakup i've ever heard. yet still dirty... hmmmmm this is great stuff
I still remember hearing Andy recording this video. And I live in Holland...!
Whoa! I heard this guys voice countless times but this is the first time that I see him.
this sounds fantastic. These demos are wayyyy better than some of the other ones on UA-cam.
Love this Amp ,all class may I say "I own the Fender 57 Champ Amp " But this is in the same Family !
Those Keef licks were a blast! Thanks for posting.
I love your Comment so much! But For all those wondering, Clapton used a Vox AC30 on everything before The BluesBreakers then a Marshall Super Lead with Cream, and continued to use it...but he used some Fender Blackface amps and experimented in general for a while(...then the heroin addiction during the seventies...) and on his return he used various amps, but in the 90's he used Soldano, and now-a-days he always has the amp in this video on stage =) YOUR WELCOME
this IS the REAL DEAL
You guys should demo this amp again, I would love to see you demo again because I just love it so much
4:00 dancing days by led zeppelin.
Sold me on the guitar.
Finally!...someone plays some Black crowes!. thank you Andy
ANdy , you can play anything, you're badass.
I believe "Infamous" is a selling tool to give it a "bad-bot" image. Great amp.
This gets that Stones tone!
I play through a Hot Rod Deluxe and I love it... However, been thinking about buying another amp just to have around.... I think this may be it...! Thanks for the demo!
I would. Fender Tweeds/Twins rock!
Its pretty loud... And it has the sweetest sound I've ever heard! Its expensive, but if you have the money this should be on your list to test. Good video, but the amp sounds a lot better in real... I played one in a local shop here in Belgium and realy that sound... It's not discribable. You need to test it. Realy!
Andy must have the best job in the world! Playing at fantastic Amps and pedals all day long! :D :D :D
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll hi, I have a Fender Bassman and, even though the solution is a bit of a disgrace (putting digital in front of valves) and maybe defeats the whole purpose of owning a Tweed, it is the most cost-effective solution I have found in order to get a decent crunch at acceptable volumes. I tried using a BOSS Bassman pedal in front of it and the result is pretty nice after fiddling a bit with it. I know it isn't the best way, but works, even live. Hope this helps!
@OttoVonBaggins
In the past, his stage guitars(stratocasters) featured a 25db active Mid-boost and TBX tone control. The mid-boost drives the amp to get what you've describes as "super sustain." The TBX tone control allowed for even brighter, bitting tone due to the two level potentiometer which when set at 5 is equivalent to 10 on a regular tone control.
Recently, he has removed the TBX tone control but the 25db Mid-boost is till there.
One can hear shades of "Jivin Sister Fanny" in this clip! There's a whole lotta Keef goin' on with this amp.
You can install an attenuator, like a Swart, or Dr Z and lower the output volume, for play in an apartment, or on a stage, where you want to keep the monitor levels low.
Sounds great! Congrats on the Fender CS deal!
Good reply! Do understand, I really do like your videos and I see your point about rock 'n' roll.
Dancing Days!! Nice one Andy.
Hahahaha i looooovvvee the new intro with the whole buzz and click and such.
Beautiful!! But still i wish he'd play a gibson through it too. Bet it would sound very sweet!!
@milodaman2 that makes sense. Im not much of a pedal guy at all. i think i shouldn't be worrying about them too much. but i think that is a good idea. thanks
fender should incorporate more tube powered rectifiers into their amps. the tube rectifier makes a big difference in my opinion. of course some fender sound fine with SS rectifier thats already in em. but imagine how much better the hot rod deluxe would sound if it a 5U4 rectifier!
What a sound WOW !!! Great sound !!!
Better to be on the side than in front of!
If you want that sound, but not that loud you should check 57 Champ and 57 Tweed deluxe.
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll
sounds like you need a 5e3 or another 12-15 watt amp.
Small amps are where it's at,you really need to work the power section to get those nice tonal dynamics,pushing the speaker helps too.
...you can always mic them for bigger gigs.
Hell of an amp!! I wish you done 57 Champ demo. :D
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll A simple way would be to turn your input volume up very high for the preamp tube distortion. If you don't get that much, you'll need a pedal or something (like a blues driver)
@TheGuitarlawyer , Yep it's surprising how many tones a Tweed amp can get. Love the user name BTW...
Before diodes became widely used, the only way to get rid of sag was... using 2 rectifiers for better efficiency.
Ah, God bless Keith Richards. Love your style, dude.
The Doors- Love Her Madly 1:43
That would be a Royer R121 ribbon mic. Killer mic!
What a excellent sound !!!
nice tone
Very nice! Great sound! I want !
no, it is a custom modified fender twin. he had something done with the tone circuit i think.
Yeah you got it right.
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll You can also disconnect one of the tubes, so your amp have to work harder. That'll provide a more dirtier sound even att low level.
I'm Free-- The Who. Totally awsome.
@InFuriatedShadows
Indeed!
Jack's right, Clapton plays Cornell-Custom 80s. It looks like this amp because its based on this amp.
i really like this amp,
great demo too
sounds sooo good
You're right, the AC30 has a beautiful dirty tone but not as clean as the Twin. It all depends on what you're looking for in an amp I guess
Been digging for quality reviews of this amp (as well as some other fenders), sweeeeeeeeet!!!
@holgaguy It may be infamous due to internal problems like short circuiting, in ways similar to a vintage car having engine problems, but when it is working its cranking along like a hot rod on the highway
Sick tone!
This is Fender's Halfstack. So yes it's loud.
ROLLING STONES!!!!
@YTJCWM the third one is "It's Only Rock N' Roll (But I Like It)" by the Rolling Stones. And the last one is a Led Zeppelin song, but I can't remember which one.
listen to cream live at royal albert hall, all clapton is using is one of these amps sounds unbelievable.
@Beermaker2000 Because of musical trends. The overdriven sound wasn't really popular or musical sounding 'til then. The Stones & Yardbirds were (I think) the first to go down that road. The Who were close behind. Hendrix as well but he came slightly later. I'm probably missing a lot of others. Prior to that. music producers wanted a very squeaky clean sound (Beach Boys, Elvis, Early Beatles). The groups that followed paved the way for sounds like this.
That was excellent !!!
did anyone get the catnip advert. best ever!!
I
cant beat a fender tweed tone with a tele.
thanks
Love the sound excellent !!!
I'd like to pair my AC15 with another amp and I find this 50's twins very desirable, I just wonder if it would sound sterile at cleanish AC15 volume levels...
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll ... you can not appreciate how loud andy is playing this amp. it is insanely loud. in fact most pgs demo videos are played very very loud so be careful about the tone you expect to get if you cant crank the amp in your home or practice space.
Excellent review !!!
Many thanks - I always look for ProGuitarShop vids for anything first as are the best demos on the internet - Cheers Andy! Have you covered the 57 Deluxe and Bassman too...?
In response to your comment of 7 months ago. You recommend the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III to some other who made comment. Personally, I avoid the Fender Hot Rod Amplifiers. With its circuit board and overall inexpensive construction it's an amp that I find sounds muddy and cannot be depended on. The amp can break down at an time and has done so on me several times. Because of the cheap circuit board, getting them repaired is a nightmare and near impossible. Amp techs try and avoid repairing them.
Now when you plug a Les Paul or an ES 335 into that puppy then listen to it bark!
Hi Andy. You don't mention the specific pickups in the Strat or the Tele. And we're assuming you're playing straight through. Correct? Would you be ever so kind and reveal the pickup set and/or hotness of the pickups in each guitar, so that we may make a judgement on how the pickups affect the sound thru the amp. Thanx so much!
it's very easy to overdrive the tubes of the 57 twin at low volumes. Just get yourself a Clapton strat use the mid-boost knob on it and the amp sings like no other. This is just like Clapton himself does it. But the 57 Twin now has become the Fender EC Twinolux, which has a Power Attenuator, so a normal Strat without Midboost can overdrive it at low volumes. Cool, isn't it. Well, you should have 5000 $ for the EC Strat and the Twinolux, but who doesn't have 5000 left for the best guitartone ever
LOVE IT !!!

This and the AC30 [not cc] are my 2 favourite amp sounds. Just mic that if it's not loud enough for you! I guess I don't have the privilege of cranking my amp full blast when playing with a band :(
can we have more fender amp demos? like the custom vibrolux reverb, 65 twin reverb, 65 super reverb, blues deville 2 x12, hot rod deville 2 x12 and the 59 bassman
Jackwintermeyer is right... he plays Cornell-Custom 80s. I've seen several sources that state it. I looks like this because its based on this amp.
I'd like to hear Andy demo the new 57 Bandmaster amp.
He has a 25db midrange boost on his guitar that gives him extra overdrive. Plus I think he was indeed running the amp at a loud volume.
how loud is it? when does it start to overdrive?
@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll maybe a hot rod deluxe 3 is in your future it gets pretty good distortion at lower levels and really killer distortion at higher levels
I've got a question: If these '57s could churn out such a badass roar, how come it took musicians until the mid-60s to start using it?
this amp would be perfect match with my vintage tele hotrod! now I'm confused if I should still get the vox handwired.... can u do a demo with a vintage tele hotrod and 57 twin amp?
Out of the guitars you play, for amp demos, which is your favorite?
Please do a demo of the Fender '57 deluxe! (with an ES335)
@TheRealRayJ The 57 Deluxe is probably it.
hey man great demo I love this amp just wondering could u plug a guitar with humbuckers into this so I could hear how this sounds. I love your channel by the way
Eric Clapton plays this amp live.
sure sounds like it ;)
Andy, you seem to play this one more instead of the AC30 handwired, which one do you like better? I think the dirty on ac30 wins, but cleans it's a toss up.
In All your videos all the amps have the same sound!!
KEEF!
install a EC Midboost into your Guitar and it works perfect
While a tweed Twin sounds awesome, not everybody needs 40 watts of tube power into 2 12" speakers. Crank that one up to where it's giving you a little breakup, and you may be too loud for some clubs! (On the other hand, if you've got an out-of-control drummer, it may be just what you need. :) )
@beermaker200 Because, most big name musicians didn't like tube breakup until the mid-60's.
Its only 40 watts, but I like it like it yes I do.
