Plug into the "Vintage" channel for the rich, chiming tone of the original silverface Twin Reverb, or check out the "Custom" channel for more modern tones.

Get All the Tone of the '68 "Silverface" Twin Reverb -- And More!
Head back to 1968 with the Fender '68 Custom Twin Reverb guitar combo amplifier! A re-issued Custom Series release of the famous "silverface" amplifier, today's '68 Custom Twin Reverb pays tribute to Fender's groundbreaking 1968 model. This Twin gives you all the tube-driven tone of the original -- plus a few modern mods.

Twin Powers, Activate: 85 Watts Through Two 12" Speakers
The '68 Custom Twin Reverb is distinguished by its two 12-inch Celestion speakers that move a powerful 85 watts of sound. This puts the power rating on this amp in the perfect "sweet spot" where it can be equally versatile for live and studio situations.

Shimmering Cleans and Classic Tube Crunch
The '68 Custom Twin Reverb has a pure and shimmering clean tone at the low end of the gain stage, but can get quite menacing once you open it up a bit. In addition to having far more power, this amp yields an overall lusher, richer sound than the '68 Custom Deluxe or the '68 Princeton Reverb re-issues.

Four Discrete Inputs On Two Channels
The '68 Custom Twin Reverb is a true 2-channel amplifier with "Custom" and "Vintage" sections. Each section has two 1/4-inch inputs that can be used individually or in tandem, giving you a total of FOUR inputs on this amp.

The "Custom" section has basic Volume, Treble, and Bass knobs to shape your perfect tube sound. Over in the "Vintage" section, you've got Volume, Treble, Bass, Reverb, Speed, and Intensity knobs to play with. These last three knobs allow you to control the legendary tube-driven Reverb and Tremolo sound that this amp is known for.

Tubes For Miles
The '68 Custom Twin Reverb gets its distinctive sound from 4 x 12AX7 and 2 X 12AT7 preamp tubes. 4 x 6V6 power tubes amplify this vintage sound push its notably loud 85 watts of power. The dual 12-inch Celestion G12V-70 speakers can deliver all the volume needed for more intimate and un-mic'd live situations, but also mic up beautifully in the studio when you want to capture the unique sound of this amp on record forever.

Eternally Cool "Silverface" Design
1968 was also definitely the year that Fender nailed a truly timeless aesthetic, creating a look that has stood the test of time. The black textured vinyl covering is contrasted with a silver-turquoise grille cloth that immediately achieves a classic look. Meanwhile, the famous aluminum drip edge grille cloth trim that looks as distinguished onstage as always. The blue jewel pilot light glows as beautifully as ever, while the skirted control knobs pop with their elegant nickel-plated caps.
