Fender Custom '68 Twin Reverb Combo - USA 2021

Here is a Fender Custom ’68 Twin Reverb, part of Fender’s Custom series that reimagines classic blackface and late-’60s silverface-era amplifier designs with modern refinements and enhanced versatility. Based on the iconic 1968 Twin Reverb, this model retains the legendary Fender clean tone while introducing updated features aimed at today’s working musicians.

This example delivers 85 watts of power through a pair of 12-inch Celestion V-Type speakers, driven by a full valve complement of four 6L6 power tubes alongside four 12AX7 and two 12AT7 preamp tubes. The result is a high-headroom amplifier with exceptional clarity, wide dynamic range, and the unmistakable sparkling Fender clean response that has defined the Twin Reverb for decades.

The amplifier features two distinct channels designed for tonal flexibility. The Vintage channel is voiced to replicate the classic late-’60s Twin Reverb sound, offering shimmering cleans with a traditional Fender-style response and a Bassman-inspired tone stack for added depth and tonal shaping. It provides smooth, dynamic breakup when pushed while retaining clarity and articulation.

The Custom channel expands the tonal range further with a more contemporary voicing, featuring a three-band EQ, Bright switch, and Mid-Boost function. This allows for greater midrange presence and cutting power in live mix situations, making it highly effective for modern stage use where additional tonal control is required.

Condition is excellent with all functions working as intended. A powerful and versatile amplifier that delivers classic Fender Twin Reverb tone with expanded tonal flexibility and modern usability.
