  1. Here's a question: If I plug into both channels, does that 'twin' the sound? 'Cos that would be cool! And maybe I would only need one of the Twins. But which one? Sigh....
  2. I have run some bisymetric algorithms to detrmine when hte answer will come. [Had to upgrade the Amstrad from 512 to 1024 to do it.] All signs say Page 8 with a confidence interval of 3-7 replies. Can't wait!
  3. Well...but... Momma don't 'low no harmonica playin' in heah! Maybe he can be that plank you mention?
  4. I have a quartet of NOS cryo matched Area 51 6L6GCs - the ones with dylithium filaments. I tried them in a Peavey Deuce, but they kept warping into the alpha quadrant. Maybe they wil be stable in the Twin? [Please - no worm hole jokes. I'm not kidding around here.]
  5. What ohmage are those drumsticks? Will they be OK as an extension for the Twin running into a 4ohm cab? Will there be any phasing issues?
  6. Twin How much is the handbasket? Any pics?
  7. You may well find the 'twin' of this amp. Or should I say a time-shift reflection. The clue is in the date of mfxtr - 1976, the USA bicentennial. That's BI as in two as in twin. The CIA Special Sciences labs wwere able to devcelop a time resonator that was capable of locking a space field approx 2'x2'x1' in a random time shimmer - effectively a 'time reverb'. One of the scientists was a Telecaster fan who talked a local studio into donating a new Twin Reverb for the project. That amp now appears in constantly shifting locations, with shifts triggered when any input signal plays a Minor E chord, signalling sadness. Clearly, it came to Aberdeen due to the Yank associations with Big Oil in th evicinity. Be glad you didn't buy it from the original listing - it would have 'reverbed' away eventually....
  8. twin 'Twin Reverb' refers to the 'twin sound' that leo fender invented, but never pateneted for fear that his secret would be stolen by unsrupulous manufacturers or 'those back east guys', as he put it. For Leo, anyone out past Palm Springs was 'back east'. In their reverb cicuit, your note is cloned and repeated after a tiny, tiny delay - effectively, you get a 'twin' note. The proces is so secret, they put a standard spring reverb tank in the amps so that the competition (and anyone working on them who deosn't know) will be fooled into thinking it is ordinary mechanical reverb. The microprocessor for the process is wrapped in tape and disguised as an optical coupler. The process was cracked by a chap named Innello Tellecato (In Tel to his friends) who saw its potential beyond guitar amplification and the rest is history... That Leo! What was he like...?!??!??!
  9. deville The DeVille series are the wrold's most-hired amps. Touring bands go for them for their big clean at mid vol, hot drive at full tilt and ultimate pedal friendliness. If you are in a band with a Marshall stack, this will keep up and cut across the mix most sweetly. They are a big step up from the deluxe - deliver well more than the 100 dif. Next step down from a Twin... ...'n way easyliftier

  20. Maybe hidden talents - or teamwork? Get a Peavey Bandit and run it into an extension cab (if you even need to). Most bang for buck.
  21. jazz I had a Lakland 55-02 - Skyline series with the Bartolini system. It was amazing. Saying that, it was second year of SKyline production, so all assembly, finishing and QC was USA. Tried a couple of new ones at G-G and you wouldn't think they were from the same company. Not a patch on mine.
