I spent the money to get this amp right! 180 watts RMS 395 peak tube watts !!

New Rick Johnson cab. Correct decal tube chart. Sica 15" 350 watt speaker. 6 new NOS RCA 6L6GC tubes and pre-amp tubes as well. If u follow the NOS RCA tubes on ebay they been bringing CRAZY $$. Ken went all the way thru the amp!! new caps..them ole tone suckn Mallorys are gone !! New power caps.. Ken Fox went all the way thru this amp with a fine tooth comb !!

This amp will do it when u need it.. Headroom for days !!! Sounds just as good on 2 as it does 10 !!

I spared no expense getting this one right. I built it for ME so I wouldnt have to worry about hearing MYSELF in a room full of guitar players with twin's

Everything works.. the EQ is great. This amp used to weigh oner 100lbs but with the improved cabinet from Rick Johnson and the 15' sica speaker this jewel comes in at just over 50lbs!!! Thats right about 52 1/2 LBS..

This amp will RAWK your steel guitar world !!!

$850 or best offer plus shipping to lower 48.. for $900 plus shipping I will send it in a road case that is in great condition !!

Check in the mail for this beast. A Super Twin that I can carry (and roll in a case, thanks Tommy).

I can't hardly wait to hear this amp. I already have a sweet RJ extension cab with a K130 to add onto that SICA as if that isnt enough already heh.
Very Happy

Now, anyone know where I can pick up a stock Fender® two-button foot pedal to toggle the 5 Band EQ and Boost On/Off? That's the only thing I'm missing here I think.

All I can say is WOW Shocked

6 big RCA tubes and a SICA—this thing sounds amazing!
Straight in from the volume pedal, no effects or reverb necessary.
5 is about as loud as I dare turn it up to!
Tommy and Ken, you've created a monster Laughing

The only thing I changed was the logo on the grill.

I wanted to pair it up with my JBL cab that I already put a metal Fender logo on. The original Super Twins had a black grill cloth and logo without a tail which are kinda hard to find. I put the same one on the amp as the cab pictured below with my Tele Custom and Fessenden (now ExtE9 5X5)



Its a great sounding and looking tube amp! Thanks.
