No Sales Tax For Customers Outside Of California.

Fender's hand-wired revisit of the rare and sought after Low Power Twin.  

The amp moves some air for sure, but at 40 watts with some dual-rectifier sag it gets some killer tube drive at lover volumes than you might think.  

Offset speakers keeps the 2x12" cabinet a bit smaller than later Twin designs.

The amp is clean and has been well cared for.  There are signs of use of course, but the cover has done its job, keeping the tweed looking nice.
