UTILIZATION

Daily use is simple with 4 presets (Sound Settings) accessible by 4 switch pedals delivered and 4 front buttons. Big hand wheel to move from one preset to another,
EQ, reverb, Brightness, Gain, Volume and Master Volume is everything.

Programming
You've successfully programmed a car in this case you will quickly learn to concoct sound characters. The manual is complete

The Cybertwin is programmable via a MIDI cable and a soft EASYCYBERTWIN available free on the Fender and a bank of presets for free service on my site

SOUNDS

Versatile combo
4 types of basic preamp:
Tweed (Bassman)
Blackface (Twin)
British (oriented Vox, Marshall)
Modern (Dyna touch, large saturation)

The clean tones with a Start or a Tele are unstoppable (Dire Straits, The Shadows, ...)
The crunch is also very good (Stevie Ray Vaughan)
The British provide for the Hard Rock on Gibson (Led Zep ...).

For saturation (Modern) I much prefer playing with my Gibson LP STD which combines perfectly with this type of amp for the strat everything will depend on microphones.

Noise Gate effectively although as always the HUM simple winding is difficult to make them disappear ...

OVERALL OPINION

That amp is very expensive at about 2200 euros but quality.

So if you find OCCAZ jump on a great product because it is versatile and flexible.
Power 2 x 65 watt Fender is not inconsiderable, attention to small apartment! It hits hard!

Complement by a MIDI pedal is required as the capabilities of the amp footswitch Fender unfortunately is prohibitively expensive (~ 500 euros) as dab, prefer a Behringer FCB1010 type (~ 190euros).

Fender warrants its materials 5 years but do not count on them to help you in programming the user support is not their battle cry.
