Thoughts on the Fender Super Sonic 60?

It is not a very bright amp, that is for sure. Could use an EQ in the loop.

Quick first test.

Exodus in a box. Nice amp

i always wanted a prosonic, its one of the last amps i want in the stable, not sure how different the super sonic is

Me too. Pro sonic is like my perfect amp. Killer clean and gonzo gain channel. If it had a mesa 5 band eq it would probably be my perfect amp.

i have the mesa 5 band and like using it with most all my amps, those mesa frequencies are sweet

Interesting. The Prosonic could easily be dialed in rip-your-face off bright

It seems like when they first came out back in the hcaf days they were all the rage for a minute and then boom… never spoken of again. Super sonic always seemed cool to me but I’m also a fender fan boi…

It definitely can boosted but I have the treble all the way up. Swapped out the pre tubes with Tung Sol and it helped.

I like it. Looking at the changes on the SS MK2 I feel the MK1 was the better choice for humbucker metal.

That was yours a Pickle fest? Can't remember but that amp definitely ripped and was probably the most surprising amp out of the bunch

Nice, is yours v1 or v2?

From what I read they made v2 more single coils friendly?

He was asking me about my Prosonic (which was the 60 watt head version)


I've still never had a chance to play a Supersonic

Ah, missed that. I am curious how they compare.
