Limited Edition Fender ‘65 Twin Reverb Neo 2x12" 85-watt Tube Combo Amp in Wine Red.
In mint condition, hardly been played and has never been gigged with.
This amp was a Sweetwater Exclusive option featuring the gorgeous limited edition color option and Pine Cabinet for weight reduction.
Great sounding amp that works exceptionally well as a pedal platform.
Originally bought this for the Fender tone, 85 watts! and friendlier combo option to a 1/2 stack I own.
I am only selling because my old habits are hard to kick that leaves this amp deserving better and now I am streamlining my equipment.
Description from Sweetwater:
Legendary tube tone, optimized for the modern player
Plug into the Fender '65 Twin Reverb Neo combo guitar amp and you'll experience legendary tube tone with an unmistakable vintage vibe. Fender manufactured the Blackface Twin Reverb amp from 1963 to '67. From its venerable 85-watt AB763 quad-6L6 circuit to its inimitable spring reverb and tremolo, G12 Neo Creamback speakers, and tilt-back legs, the Fender '65 Twin Reverb Neo delivers the classic Blackface Twin sound, optimized for the modern player.
Fall in love with your pedals again
With four Groove Tube 6L6 output tubes in the engine room, the 65 Twin Reverb Neo supplies copious clean headroom, delivering a hefty 85 watts into four ohms. Guitarists at Sweetwater love the way the Twin takes guitar pedals. Indeed, the Twin is considered by many to be the ultimate pedal platform. With the '65 Twin Reverb Neo, you can use your pedalboard to sculpt your tone — precisely, predictably, and at any volume.
The new avatar of clean
The Twin has earned a reputation through the decades as the hardest working amp in show business. From its introduction in 1963, it has appeared on countless iconic recordings. By way of endorsement, tone purist Eric Johnson relies on his vintage '68 Silverface Twin (which still incorporated Blackface circuitry) for his clean rhythm guitar sound (switching to a vintage Plexi for dirty rhythm and leads). Many musicians here at Sweetwater own a Twin — either an original or reissue — and use it relentlessly. Over half a century and still going strong. The Fender '65 Twin Reverb Neo: it's the new avatar of clean.
