Its harmonically rich, clean tones are great for authentic rock, blues, and country playing. When cranked up, the Twin-Amp’s fat, sophisticated distortion tone works wonderfully in many modern musical situations.The ’57 Twin-Amp gets its power from a pair of USA-made GT6L6-GE output tubes.

The preamp contains four high-gain 12AX7 tubes, three of which may be substituted with 12AY7s for the original ’50s low-gain sound, if desired. There’s also an internal bias pot that allows easy substitution of various 6L6 tube types.Control panel details include Normal and Bright volumes, 4 Inputs (2 Normal, 2 Bright), Treble, Bass, and Presence knobs.The ’57 Twin’s finger-joined solid pine cabinet resonates with a warm, woody tone.
