Fender "Red Knob" "The Twin" head & matching 2x12 cab

Anyone got any experience on the Red Knob twin? I got a fairly good deal on one of these. Wondering if I should get it. I heard they got a great clean and a Marshall like gain channel? How reliable are they?

Thanks~

The reliability on the red knob fenders is pretty bad actually. Speaking from personal experience I would walk away unless the deal is completely ridiculous.

I've honestly never heard anything good about the Red Knob Twins, reliability or sound-wise.

The deal is around 490USD for the head & cab. So I should stay away from this then I guess.
