Well you knew I’d be by sooner or later as you and I have been chasing the Twin Dream for a while.

I see you have taken the twin game to the next level with your second pair!

For my contribution, please allow me to present my TWIN FENDER PRECISIONS running into my TWIN AMPEG BA115 COMBOS!!!

They’re daisy chained to make one monster 300 watt into two 15” combo.
Double twins!
What do you think?

You twinned the entire rig and matched the colors of the instruments to the amplifiers?! Bonus points!

Very happy to see you’re all set.

Well, I could add to the story part a bit. It's not full of adventure & international intrigue though, unfortunately :(

The second tobacco burst 'bird (in the pic, the one that has regular dot fretboard inlays), that I got sorta by accident, is linked to the white Classic Pro.

I was bidding on the CP (which was mostly just the shell, with pickups and some hardware (all disassembled), the rest was gone), and had bid the max I was willing to pay.
I thought I might get outbid, so I bid on the '07 tobacco burst, but less than what I thought it should be worth, so I would get at least one, hopefully :nailbiting:
Once I won on the CP, I kept thinking, with such a low bid on the other, I would get outbid...

Clearly, this plan somewhat backfired, as I ended up with both...:facepalm:

The Vintage Pro was similar, I put in a low-ish bid, which ended up winning :unsure:


:)
That’s a great story! Glad I asked.
 
My '96 Jazz twins - 4 & 5 string. The 4 string has factory electronics, but I 'down-graded' the active circuit in the 5-string to V/V/T, while adding Nordstrand NJ5F p/u's. I do recommend Nordstrands, they sound great and are very quiet.
 
Two custom Keith Roscoe twins in medium 32" scale:

Both with identical RMC Piezo/Midi systems:

The bottom switch is for turning the LED's markers on the side of the fingerboards on and off. Technically the finish is the same, but one has a bird's eye maple top and the other is buckeye burl.
