Do you mean Twin Reverb?

Twins yes, Twin Reverbs no.

Yes I think it's the super sonic twins that have it. Oh well I would probably never use it anyway so I'll just be happy with my TRRI at full power!

OK, SS Twins also, but I was referring to the models simply called "Twin" or "The Twin". Not the same thing as a Twin Reverb.

So, you have a TRRI? Then you already know that they don't have a power selector. The TRRI is based on the original, so they wouldn't put the power selector on some and not others.

It's important to refer to an amp by it's name, Twin Reverb or Twin Reverb Reissue (TRRI), SS Twin, or just Twin, all three are very different amps, and "Twin" even has a few different versions.

I use it, especially at band practice where the room is cramped and I don't want to blow my drummer away. :lol:
