Fender Twin Reverb (Evil Twin)

Does anyone have experience with this amp?
I've been looking around and apparently it has a nice clean, but ways a ton.
It is a 2x12.

Reason I'm asking is that I found a used one for $600 with 2 additional pedals (Jimi Hendrix Wah and Boss SD-1)

Even better if anyone would be able to compare this to the Fender Blues Deluxe Reissue. Granted that both will be played at bedroom level 95% of the time with an occasional gig from time to time.

They're a good thing. Perhaps the only Fender that has useable preamp distortion.
In the US I think that is a bit on the pricey side though. I seem to recall somebody saying they normally go for closer to $400 - but don't quote me on that. maybe a yank with more knowledge of their pricing will chirp in.

Oh god, Cathbard has gone Grammer Nazi on us. (Let it be noted that I was gonna make the same correction )

The Fender is a really nice amp. If you can get it, get it. That's it, just get it.

I'm usually pretty tolerant of grammar and spelling (except when it's a wall of unpunctuated text) but that was a steamer.

The Evil Twin is one of my favourite Fenders. They're a good thing. They may not be built as well or have as high a quality parts as an old blackface but they're a damn fine sounding piece of kit.
