Description
Fender's Super-Sonic Twin tube combo amp is designed for guitarists who want the inimitable sound of Fender clean tones plus expressive high-gain sounds in an all-tube, 100W, 2x12 combo.

The Super-Sonic Twin combo has a classic two-channel preamp with Vintage and Burn channels. The Vintage channel delivers tones based on legendary Fender favorites, with pre-gain tone controls and switchable voices for shimmering clean tones derived from vintage Fender Twin Reverb and Showman amps, and fat, punchy tone reminiscent of 1960s Bassman amps. The Pre and Master Volume controls can be set for pure clean or slightly overdriven tones.

The Burn channel ignites musical inspiration with overdrive flavors from bluesy to flame-throwing. Experiment with post-gain EQ and two-stage cascading preamp controls. Gain 1 provides edgy breakup and distortion while Gain 2 adds compression, thickness, and sustain. The Notch Tune feature lets you move the midrange notch for a variety of American and British flavors. The Super-Sonic Twin combo 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 combo also contains impressive extras like the Arena/Club switch, which provides 25W output (or, remove two of the power tubes for 50W/12W operation). The Damping control on the rear panel lets you select Normal, Loose, or Tight speaker response. And the all-new Fender Automatic Bias control (patent-pending) lets you easily set your output tubes to the recommended factory setting without a meter or tools. The bias can be set hotter or cooler if desired, and almost any mix of 6L6 power tubes will work.

The Super-Sonic Twin combo includes a cover and a 4-button, pedal board-friendly footswitch.

    This amp is far from the amp that they advertise it to be. The sound is not a whole lot to write home about and the second I plugged mine in, I heard an incredible amount of white noise. Nothing i did would get rid of it. I understand that this is not an isolated incident. If you google "fender super sonic hiss" you'll find that this issue is one that is common for the whole super sonic series. There was clearly little to no quality control with this amp because there is no way that this amp was checked. Do more research on this amp. You'll find a ton of reviews like mine that are complaining about Fender's inability to address this issue. I've literally played through the amp for <10 minutes and I've decided to take it back. Buyer beware- do your research.

  • Great Amp

    I loved this amp, but at 60 years old and in very good health, it was too heavy for me to lift. I believe it weighs 99 lbs. I have a large SUV and getting it in and out was a bear. That is my only complaint. It is sounds fantastic and very well built, but since I didn't have a roadie, I had to trade it in. Funny thing thought, I bought a Fender Twin. Go figure.

    Extremely flexible; can emulate a twin reverb, a bassman, and has an excellent gain channel. In general, a monster of an amp that is usable in just about any venue you can think of. Extremely pleased. The Guitar Center in Canton, MI is a great place to buy gear as well...very knowledgeable staff...been working with Eric Weber (sales staff) for a couple of year now (purchased higher end guitars, amps, etc) and he has been just great.
