Anyone ever tried one of these out? What're your thoughts on these? I've been thinking about picking one of these up... :)

You mean the Twin Reverb with the 15? I played a vintage one a while back when I was looking at amps. Great Surfy tones with the JM.

Yep, that's the one. Fender came out with it again a few years back.
Hopefully more people have tried it out, preferably the newer one.

I've played the new Twin Custom 15 and found it a great amp. The 15" speaker really smoothed out the sound and it was quite versatile -- super clean but very nice.

I played one at GC before I bought my Silverface TR.  I really liked it, and  was tempted to buy one.  They sound great.  Perfect for surf and twang! 8)  Plus, it's something you don't see everyday!

Well, I have a late 70s Vibrosonic Reverb, which essentially is a silverface 1x15" twin. Got a JBL D130F in it. I much prefer this one over anything I've played that ha 12"s in it, though that is mostly because I also use the amp for organ, and there the low frequency response is really important. This combo just doesn't fart out, which is great.

And of course it sounds god-like with the JMs.

I really want this amp so I'll probably pick one up rather soon, hopefully. Should sound really nice with a bass vi as well, might just have to buy/make one.

I was about to say it would probably sound awesome with a VI.  8)
