should i trade....

Post by robert(original) »

my cyber twin for a slightly used 2004 u.s.a. telecaster?
the guy that was going to by it for cash has not offered up his tele and im unsure of wheather it would be worth it or not.
comes with a case, sunburst.
all stock, and besides some dings(small) its in decent shape.

mine was 500, usually they are worth 6-800. mine is a 2004, but its natural ash... are the sunburst ones ash too? makes it worth a bit more.


teles> digital amps. but im not sure its worth the trade, monetarily.

if you already have a great tele, why not take the cash?

ive always wanted one of those old honda motorcycles with the long flat saddle and low profile.

If you already have your perfect tele, just hold off. Sell the cyber twin and get something else.

Yeah but does your other amp have an '83 Sidekick 10 model like the Cyber twin?

also, the cyber twins are not generally held in real high esteem. The tele may be alot easier to get rid of then the cybertwin.

EXACTLY. Fender fans are more often purists and cork sniffers.

to me that is weird that the cyber twin isn't more popular, its powerful, compact, and has a variety of different sounds.
not just the generic "everything sounds like a bad digital distortion"
it has the seperate tubes, solid state, and digital bits to it all.

I always thought the real thing was better than cyber....too hard to balance typing/concentrating everything at once you know....

I own a fender cyber twin and i really really love it. the thing is extremely loud, i usually can only go up to 4 before my ears hurt. i really like it. the presets on it are basically shit, i recommend making your own settings, if you play with it enough it really can be the all in one amp, i love mine.

well you know you can add more presets to it.
im not sure exactly how, but i know that mine says version 1.2 instead of version 1.0
i like the amp models the best, the vibratone, bassman, and princeton choices are the best IMO.
its nice that you can choose the type of tube, and the tweed/face setting.
its also nice how interactive each effect is, its not just "room reverb/hall reverb"
you can manipulate each style and it sounds authentic.
i know rodvonbon can back me up on this.
and if i remember correctly rod and i use the same type of setting on our cybers.
the bassman 59 setting, i think his has more gain in it tho.
