I certainly can appreciate that new toy! Very nice amp, I had one of the last year blackface Twins, I think it was a `67, which I used for about 15 years. I sold it in the late 90`s and have been using an AC30 and Marshall 6100 since. The Twins are great amplifiers (maybe except for that red knobbed late 80`s thing). You can`t go wrong with a Twin and a Strat (or just about any other guitar for that matter). They sound good with humbuckers too! Great tweed score! Rock-n-Roll regards.-John (Longgone)
