I'll try to post a link to the page..
Not sure if anyone has seen this but...someone is selling a vintage Fender Twin...with 2 K120's in it. Buy it now for $1000.00. From all the discussions here thought there might be somebody interested in this.

If I had and extra grand that would be mine!

relisted for $900.00

Can somebody help me out here...I guess I would have thought that $1000.00 was a pretty fair price for that...apparently I'm wrong.

fantastic amp...the only thing to be aware of is the design was changed on 68 twins and some are cathode biased which purists say makes for a cold amp (among other issues).......you want to make sure this is either early 68 or has been "Blackfaced" if it was later 68.

jerry had a 68 twin in his 2 twin cab.

The drip edge twins are awesome if blackfaced (either originally or after the fact).

The amp guys here (jonarobb, sarno, waldo, riverrat) can get into better detail than I can

900 is more than a decent price if it is good shape (sounds like it has been maintained) and it is blackfaced.\

The K120's are worth 300 ++ alone...........

jeffm725 has covered the technical issues...

I think the only real "problem" is that the seller has only 7 feedbacks... and listed and sold what appears to be the same amp (from the pictures) for $710 on 2/3/2010. Doesn't appear to be a problem though, the 2/3 buyer appears to be Italian and the seller indicates USA shipping only.

If I hadn't just bought a new guitar and amp I'd probably post a question to the seller to verify the prior auction situation and then try to snipe it next week.
