Fender Cyber-Twin 65 watt Guitar Amp For Sale

model of guitar was used wherever possible, ala Jimi with a maple-necked Stratocaster®.

Consequently, some presets may seem to be more“trebly”or“bassy”than you would prefer, or seem louder or quieter than some of the other presets. This is natural, because if person“A”plays a Telecaster®in a tiled room, and person“B”uses a Jazz guitar in a carpeted room, they will achieve very different end results. You can easily move the knob settings and store your changes if desired. Most of our Cyber-presets are designed to let the unique character of your instrument and playing style come through. That’s why thousands of pros and hobbyists alike have added the Cyber-Twin®to their tone toolbox!

Your new Cyber-Twin®amplifier is the crowning achievement of Fender’s most advanced research and development project. Brought to you by the same Tone–team that created the original Cyber–TwinTMamplifier, the Cyber-Twin®is refined and updated with additional amp designs and effects. Cyber–Series amplifiers are endowed with Fender’s exclusiveVirtual Tone InterpolationTMtechnology (patent number 6,222,110). VTITMtechnology enables the Cyber-Twin®amplifier tobedifferent amplifiers according to circuit design. Starting with a virtual circuit board, the Cyber-Twin®amplifier \"rewires\" its fundamental architecture (tubes, resistors, capacitors, etc.) to become the essence of all the amplifier greats—Fender’s BlackfaceTM, Dyna–TouchTM, Tweed and Modern amps, and even the best of the British amps!

The Cyber-Twin®amplifier allows you to be the amp designer. Start with one of 150 permanent amp and effect setups stored within the Cyber-Twin®amp—twist some knobs, make some changes, then SAVE to one of the 100rewritablepreset locations reserved onboard for your original amplifier designs. MIDI implementation on the Cyber-Twin®amplifier enables you to transfer presets to and from the amp for backup to a PC, or for exchange with other Cyber-Twin®SE amplifier players.

The Cyber-Twin®amplifier also puts a huge array of studio–quality effects at your command: Reverb, Modulation and Delay effects, enough to satisfy most any sonic appetite. And many are instereo, so you can use the line outputs or headphones to enjoy a fully ambient stereo dimension. The Cyber-Twin®amplifier’s Dyna–TouchTMpower amp circuitry and Celestion®speakers deliver powerful, responsive Tone to you and your audience.

  This page introduces key concepts for the basic operation of your Cyber–Twin SETM. The following pages provide an overview of each item on the front and rear panels.

  TheDISPLAYshows vital information and menus for the Cyber-Twin®TheDATAWHEELworks dynamically with the display giving you full control over preset selection, effect parameters and system configuration. The display also responds to the use of panel knobs or buttons providing useful information. You can enter differentMODESto edit amplifier designs, effects and system utilities; each mode determines the functions of the display and data wheel.

  PLAYMODEis active whenever the Cyber-Twin®amplifier is first switched on. After booting up, the display will show information about the current preset. The first line displays the preset location (bank/number) and name. The second line displays the type oftone stackcontrols (treble, middle, bass), tone stack location (pre/post distortion) and the active effect. In play mode, the data wheel selects presets.

  There are three banks ofPRESETS. TheFENDERCUSTOMSHOP(C00-C99) andYOURAMPCOLLECTION(A00-A49) are permanent presets. ThePLAYER’SLOUNGE(P00-P99) presets are rewritable for you to save your own amp and effect designs.

  The Cyber-Twin®is instantly reconfigured to the settings saved within a selected preset. The 8MOTORIZEDknobs on the Cyber-Twin®automatically adjust to the preset settings. You can safely interrupt knob rotation anytime by manually stopping it. Note that the display will temporarily indicate knob position when turned manually.

  Changes you make to amplifier settings (volume, tone, effects, etc.) will be lost upon selecting a different preset or turning the amplifier off, unless you save them.SAVEsimply by pressing SAVE, selecting a Player’s Lounge preset to overwrite and pressing SAVE again.
