Ralf?

Jeff(bigtikidude)

Yep, same amp as in video posted by Redfeather. Link to ebay sale is in original post - click on Buying Lottery Ticket.

For sale for 7500 Euros. Too much if you are in the US, but sounds beautiful.

Price is high, yes... but if someone is interested, it´s negotiable of course.

Is there another one for sale on this planet?

Maybe. A real bargain here: https://www.vintageandrare.com/showroom/product/Fender-Twin-1962-Blonde-3089#prettyPhoto
But this 1962 one is too clean for my taste... I play mine live also. It´s always sad for me when I see those nice brownface amps only on "collectors" pics.... Sigh

Twang cheers!

So it is Ralf! I'm hoping it's just a "routine downsize", since he also just bought that limited edition Squier Jaguar I've been drooling over lately.

I think my hatred of digital stuff is well established, but I was still cross when I found out that Fender's new "one-trick pony" modelling amp range included a Blonde Twin, but it was STILL blackface. A Classic Vibe Jaguar, a Surfy Bear Classic and a digital brownface would have been the ultimate neo-surf rig on a budget.

For the love of god Fender just make a real blonde reissue... Modelling, FET, Tube, ust... make something.

I never had a chance to compare with real ones but I just love “blond” switch on Quilter Superblock US. Firstly I was more into “blackface” 65, but now I found myself using only 61. May be Quilter did what Fender missed?

Yes. I guess Quilter is doing a hell of a good job since years.

Good Guys Music & Sound in Honolulu, HI has one of these on the floor for 5K. I was in there last week and saw it but didn't play it. There was also a Blonde Reverb tank for sale but I don't know if it was a reissue or original.

I bought a real deal '65 Deluxe from them years ago. There's a UPS store about two blocks up the street. Easy peasy to ship back home.

I have no interest in the sale but I love the store and thought I'd let the forum know about the opportunity to score some cool gear.

Aloha!

Ho nah! That's insane, and a good price! How did a blonde Twin make it there?!!! Is Harry's Music still kicking? I go home in a month to Kailua and I'll have to check that place out!
