I would just make sure it has been taken care of and not get 1 beaten up because they are solid state to a big degree and it could be easy to crack the PCB board and shake up the delicate electronics in it ect. I take it with me to jams and I always get compliments on how good it sounds. There are a lot of good sounds in it and time is needed to explore all of them. The reverbs and delays are really good on these too. But from what I know now I would swap the tubes again.Īlso considering i can get the cybertwin pretty cheap ive been thinking about buying another 1. but it still did sound good with the original tubes. The 12au7's took away the harshness the CT can have on high gain settings. If you can get the CT at a good price and it has been taken care of I would get it. But for less than 600 dollars and more clean headroom than a deluxe reverb RI that's what I would get. which can also be used for just OD pedal and Bypass the amp. If I wanted a 100% solid state amp I would buy the Ethos OD amp. I haven't played the cyber deluxe but it is all solid state. and I don't want to lug around either of those cabinets just to jam when I can get a great sound from the cybertwin. I also have a 69 dual showman reverb with 4 x 12 JBL E120's and an early 70's 2 x 15 carvin cabinet with 2 altec lansing 418-8h.

I changed them out after reading at some fender/cybertwin forums that a better sound is available by lower gain tubes. Ive had them for several years and they make everything much better. I got them and some NOS GE 6L6GC's for my dual showman

I swapped out the original 12Ax7's with some NOS 12AU7 Mullard E82CC (6189) Silver Plate Triple Mica, 1960s label. They set it to his original 59 bassman settings and he played through it the rest of the night and does/has endorsed the CyberTwin ever since. When he was first asked to try 1 and he said ok they set it up for him in concert to use only on a song or 2. as has buddy guy when he was having his 59 bassman restored. You have to compensate the gain if you use OD pedals. but you can only get a couple to work together at the same time. Ive had 000 problems out of it and it sounds great and has a million effects. Ive got the very first issue of the cyber twin.
