Super-Sonic amplifiers are the tool of choice for pro guitarists who create
glorious Fender clean tones and expressive modern high-gain tones…with
one no-nonsense tube amp.
The Super-Sonic 22 combines this versatility with the organic feel and
moderate output power of the legendary Deluxe Reverb® amp, perfect
for most stage and studio applications. The VINTAGE channel delivers pure,
unmistakable Fender tone, and the awesome BURN channel ignites musical
inspiration with overdrive flavors ranging from bluesy to flame-throwing.
And while the Super-Sonic 22 is capable of heavily saturated tube distortion
and sustain, it never masks the tonal character of YOUR guitar.
