Hey guys:

I'm currently playing a JCM200 TSL 100 half-stack. Prior to that (pre-2006), I was playing almost exclusively small bars/clubs where I just didn't need that much oopmh. Based on the reaction I got at Guitar Center when I traded up for the TSL, I should be ashamed to say that prior to 2006 I was playing through a Fender CyberTwin. These guys looked at me like I had lobsters crawling out of my ears (line stolen from "A Christmas Story"). Honestly, I really enjoyed that amp, and would love to still have it around. Sure, it was a tweak-fest dialing in the right tone, but once you were there, the damn thing sounded great. It was portable, easy to lug around, and loud enough for all the indoor gigs we played. We have some live recordings of our band where I'm playing the CyberTwin, and they rock! Anyone else out there own a CyberTwin, or am I the only LOSER to have played one of these things? Still can't understand all the bad press those amps got...
