The Classic Super-Sonic Twin, with Limited Edition Features!

The Fender Super-Sonic Twin FSR tube combo amplifier takes Fender's legendary amp lineage into modern rock territory, and looks sweet doing it with a Limited Edition "Black Gold" look. Fender's Legendary mid-'60s Blackface Twin Reverb is considered the "ultimate in clean" by many tube combo aficionados. You get the same sweet tone with the Super-Sonic Twin FSR, but it's got the drive to take you into modern-rock territory too. This LTD Super-Sonic Twin FSR boasts a special pair of 12" Celestion Gold speakers packed with British tone, with a rich midrange and distinctive growl. Only 50 will be available in the USA, so don't miss your chance to own the Fender Limited Edition Super-Sonic Twin FSR tube combo!

Classic Fender with Limited Edition features

The Super-Sonic Twin's FSR Limited Edition badge and "Black Gold" vinyl covering and piping would catch the eye of any guitarist, and only 50 of these will be available in the USA. But as looks aren't everything, Fender also souped up the Super-Sonic Twin FSR with a pair of Celestion Gold 12" speakers (instead of the traditional Vintage 30s), voiced to bring you the rich midrange and undeniable growl that you'd expect from a British amp.

Amazing tonal control

Pumping out an authoritative 100 watts, the Super-Sonic Twin ups the wattage of the original (which was loud enough for pretty much anything), and updates the all-tube electronics to the current state-of-the-art. Today's Twin contains several advanced features that will broaden your sonic palette:

  • Arena/Club switch: knocks the power down to 25 watts yet preserves its jaw-dropping high-volume tube tone at lower "club gig" volume levels.
  • Notch Tune control: lets you move the midrange notch and fine-tune the distortion characteristics for a variety of American and British amp sounds.
  • Rear-panel Damping Control: lets you select "normal," "loose" or "tight" speaker response for sounds ranging from warm and loose to tight and focused.
  • Fender Automatic Bias control, which lets you easily set the output tubes to the recommended factory setting and to your preference of "hotter" or "cooler" bias with no need for meters or tools.
Footswitchable functionality

Fender has fitted this refined beast with an effects loop that also functions as a footswitch-operated boost, and has included a pedalboard-friendly 4-button footswitch and amp cover. A roadworthy chassis wearing classic Fender good looks tops off the package. The Super-Sonic Twin is one serious pro amp.
