From Our Research Team:

The Newest Incarnation of Fender's Do-Everything Amp!

Since the introduction of the original Cyber-Twin™ in 2001, it has become an industry standard in programmable amplifiers. Now, the FENDER® design team has produced Second Edition of this flagship amp, the Cyber-Twin SE. It’s still a 2x12 combo with a tube preamp, just as you'd expect from a Cyber-Twin™, but with its you'll be able to craft even more signature sounds for your guitar. It looks just a little different, but it does everything the original model did, and a whole lot more!

Fender Cyber-Twin SE at a Glance:
  • 130-watt (2 x 65 watts) stereo amp
  • 2 x 12" Celestion G12 T-100 speakers
  • 250 DSP amplifier design presets, with 100 rewritable user locations
  • 42 individual effects selections with adjustable parameters
  • Effects send with stereo returns, plus digital output, balanced line outs and headphone jack
  • Footswitch control plus MIDI In/Out/Thru for automated settings changes
  • Motorized knobs for instant verification of settings

A classic Fender Amp
The Cyber-Twin SE is all Fender - its dual 12AX7 Groove Tubes preamp tubes deliver all the punch and grit you identify with the "Fender Sound." Plus, the Cyber-Twin SE's solid state amplifier section delivers a clean 130 watts - 65 watts per stereo channel - to the dual 12" Celestion G12 T-100 speakers. So right out of the box you get an authentic Fender tone. A new patented Hum Reduction with Automatic™ 50/60 Hz discrimination is selectable with a front-panel button and LED. And that's before you dive into the Cyber-Twin's powerful DSP functions!

250 DSP amplifier design presets, with 100 rewritable user locations
Fender amps have always been versatile but the Cyber-Twin SE takes you to a whole new level. Built in are 250 models of amplifier types. The Cyber-Twin starts with 100 Custom Shop-designed models, complete with effects. Then it adds 50 special "Your Amp" designs that are optimized for the Cyber-Twin SE's preamp, amp and speakers. Finally, you get 100 user locations to create and store your own favorites in the "Player's Lounge" section. No matter what your musical genre, the Cyber-Twin SE will help you carry around the tones you hear in your head without having to carry array around a stack of amps and cabinets! 4 Quick Access keys provide assignment and recall of favorite amp design presets. And improved amp filtering makes for more natural, airy highs on many presets. The Cyber-Twin SE features four new timbre filters including Metal Drop Scoop, Mid Squawk, Super Bright, and Acoustic Scoop.

42 individual effects selections with adjustable parameters
The Cyber-Twin SE doesn't skimp on the DSP effects, either - with 42 individual presets, all with 4 or 5 editable parameters, you'll have 11 reverb types, 6 tone stacks (each with 2 location parameters, before or after the distortion circuitry), 3 noise gate levels, 8 timbre types for room acoustics or tone boosts, 4 line/speaker polarity selections and more. The new edition includes fun new effects like Auto Pan Delay, Fuzz, "Lo-Fi" Resolver, Pedal Pitcher, "Green" Stompbox Overdrive, "Blackie" Mid Boost, and Alienator. The Cyber-Twin SE may be the only amp you need for the rehearsal, the gig and the recording studio!

Effects send with stereo returns, digital output, balanced line outs and headphone jack
When it comes to I/O, the Cyber-Twin SE has you covered. Its 2 channel inputs are joined by a host of output options. The Cyber-Twin's effects send has stereo returns for handling your favorite outboard gear. Left and right balanced line outputs connect directly to a mixing board. And the Cyber-Twin SE also features S/PDIF digital out for recording directly into a DAW or hard disk recorder. Plus, a headphone out mutes the speaker outputs so you can practice and experiment silently. Control is easy using the 4-button footswitch. And for automated parameter control and settings changes, the Cyber-Twin even has MIDI In, Out and Thru connections with 24 continuous controller settings. An expression pedal input adds to your note-shaping power.

Motorized knobs for instant verification of settings
The front-panel knobs on your Cyber-Twin SE may look like ordinary amp knobs, but they're more like the controls on an automated mixing board. They're motorized to show you exactly what you're hearing. Just spin the big knob and watch the settings change as you listen to the presets! The Cyber-Twin SE also has 3 effects parameter knobs that make it easy to tweak your effects, just like your favorite stomp boxes. Plus, a 40-character, 2-line display presents menu options, prompts and general information so you'll always know where you are.

The Cyber-Twin - a winner on all fronts!

by Noel McCarthy from Valhalla, NY, USA
January 17, 2009
Music Background: Semi-pro musician
Since I play a variety of musical styles - Blues, Country, Rock, and Celtic - I've amassed a range of amps and guitars over the years. I still have them, but when it comes to playing out I now have o... read more [+]ne go-to amp: the Cyber-Twin SE! This by far the most versatile, flexible, and musical-sounding amp I've ever used, bar none. I've tried a variety of other modeling amps, and while some are okay, most aren't. A lot of them are fine as at-home practice amps, but leave a lot to be desired when it comes to live sound. Not so the Cyber-Twin. I can dial in virtually any sound and timbre I want, instantly, and the amp has so many useful presets that you'll be hard pressed to go beyond what they offer. But, if you do need to dial in your own sounds, it's very easy - provided you read the manual first. Once you do, you'll find that you have a phenomenal sonic pallete at your fingertips. I still have to schlep two or three guitars to gigs - but only one amp. And by the way, the build quality on the Cyber-Twin is superb, and it also looks darn good on stage. I've had loads of people (mostly guitarists) come up to me after a performance wanting to know how I got such a great range of sounds. I just point to the Cyber-Twin. At $1,400 it's not cheap, but it's worth every penny. I even use it in the studio a lot, although it sounds better miked than running it direct to the board. Do yourself a favor - buy this amp. You'll never regret it! close [-]

Awesome amp....

This fender amp took me a little time to completely understand. But, let me tell you once I did I was blown away. It's features are limitless and the tone quality was like that of a typical fender. Th... read more [+]e only suggestion I would make is READ THE MANUAL! Once you read it AND do what it says (just fool around, as you read some thing try it) you will really master it and be glad you did. Lastly in addition to the awesome Sweetwater tech support there is a great yahoo group called fendercybertwin that gives you some good support as well. close [-]

Awesome tones and a feature-set to take your sound to the next level. Very usable. Never remember a tone setting again. Throw away your stomp boxes and amp modellers. This is one compact powerful all-... read more [+]in-one solution. I have played with everything else and it's all going to ebay. 2 small comments however. 1) The motorised pots that show the settings kick-in too quickly whilst moving through a range of patches - there should be like a 3 second delay or something as I can predict the motors will pass-out eventually. My second more important point is that, when recording direct with the signal outs, speaker emulation (as claimed) is not as good as the sound as through the cabinet by quite a margin. I can see myself miking the box for the real deal - however, I'm still blown away with the whole SE offering. Excellent. close [-]

cyber Twin SE

Music Background: semi-pro , home recording ,
The good....
Exceeds my expectations... and built like a tank...
Anyone with pod/johnson etc. modelling experience will fly with this guy.
I can't think of any style that couldn't... read more [+] be played on this amp ...
I just had it out for it's first blast (live / stage levels) I was very happy with how faithful it was to my presets tones and dynamics at 5-6 on the volume... (which offered more than adequate headroom for our 3 pc. rhythmn section)
It was nice to be able to carry my amp / effects and tuner without breaking my back .@ 65lbs and 130 watts (stereo 2x12) I'm happy...
Effects sound really good , studio snobs may turn their noses up a bit , but for all in one boom box this thing sounds great...
I'm Crazy about the long reverbs and vibratone with doppler and hi-lo speed morphing when switching man ... now that's impressive... (Got this one from one of the factory presets.... a few minor tweaks to suit individual and your there...)
As a matter of fact I was able to set up 6 models from the presets onboard and most of them just needed the same eq tweaks to accomodate my style/instrument and preset to preset leveling...
Pretty good stuff overall
The Bad
Would have liked to see a dedicated delay , and a dedicated mod (to mimick the reverb(s))
But given the parameters available to acsess the delay & mod combination patches its easy enough to get what you want)
In my case 75% of the presets don't fit me so that only left me with (200 factory presets *25% ) or 50 that do and with 50 spots to store 'em that's a great fit in my book..
Summary
It's a ton of dough for a guy like me but I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. I'm more than a little excited... I love this thing. close [-]
