Drew - There's been some discussion about this new amp, including some problems from Forumites who purchased them. Here are some links:

There's also a new Fender Amp coming soon, called the "Steel King". You might want to do a search for that item also. Looks like Fender is finally noticing there's a market for steel guitar amps.

Mike - Musician's Friend shows the MSRP at $1569.99. Their price is $1099.99 or about the same as the regular 65 Twin Reverb Re-Issue. Previous threads show there may be quality control issues on some of the initial shipments. - Tim

Mike,

I don't think Tim is talking about the Steel King... I think he's talking about the '65 Twin Custom 15. Those prices sound like the Custom Twin prices. Surely a solid state amp wouldn't cost that much!

If the MSRP on the Steel King has been announced, I'm not aware of it. If I'm wrong, educate me!

Right, Rick. The price I gave is for the Custom 15. So far, info on the Steel King is rumour and no price or specs are available.
