Super Sonic amplifiers are designed for guitarists who want to cre-
ate unmistakable Fender clean tones and expressive modern high-
gain tones...with one no-nonsense tube amp. The VINTAGE channel
delivers tones based on legendary Fender favorites, and the BURN
channel ignites musical inspiration with overdrive flavors from bluesy
to flame-throwing. The Super-Sonic amp is capable of modern high-
gain overdrive and sustain, but these characteristics can be fine tuned
without masking the tonal character of YOUR guitar. The Super-Sonic
Twin and 100 Head also contain impressive extras like Arena/Club
switch, Damping control, and all-new Fender Automatic Bias control.
Features include:
• 100 Watts from four 6L6 output tubes
• ARENA/CLUB switch provides selectable 100 Watt or 25 Watt
output
• Seven 12AX7 preamp tubes & two 12AT7 tubes
• VINTAGE channel contains pre-gain tone controls and two
different switchable voices:
• Shimmering clean tone derived from vintage Fender Twin
Reverb® and Showman® amplifiers
• Fat, punchy tone reminiscent of 1960s Bassman® amplifiers
• Pre and Master Volume controls can be set for pure clean or
slightly overdriven tones
• BURN channel allows tonal experimentation with post-gain EQ
and two-stage cascading preamp controls:
• GAIN 1 provides edgy breakup and distortion
• GAIN 2 adds compression, thickness, and sustain
