The Super 60 is an all-tube Fender amp. It develops a power of 60W.
Before buying this amp I had a Princeton Chorus, but had not the power to play in groups. I then DCID to take the plunge into an amp lamps. That was more than 15 years and I always regret it!

The amp has
- 2 input jack facade
- A volume for clean sounds
- + Volume gain for the channel saturbr /> - bass medium acute
- Reverb
- Presence
- Jack for the footswitch (included) that lets you go from channel to channel saturbr clear />
Like any amp lamps, it also has a power on / off and a standby.

As against it has no master volume!

On the back side, it is possible to open the loop between the preamp and amp for example, add effects or use another type of pre amp.

Power level, he moves really. I've used live in a fairly large room (~ 800 people) without having to go through the table!
When the lights are hot, the sound is really excellent

Level space, it has a HP, so space is limited, as against all filled with lights, it weighs a ton! It is not practical to repeat stroll!

UTILIZATION

Negative: no master volume. So if you need to play a part of a song in his clear and another in saturated two volumes must be set so that the whole is cohrent. It really is not very practical.

Also this amp is powerful enough, if one channel is saturated with a high gain, even at a minimum, the sound is still quite strong. The amp is not very Adpater for use in apartment!

Given the small number of settings, the amp could not be simpler to use.

SOUNDS

For the styles of music I play (or rather blues rock), this amp is really perfect. I do not play in groups then as the power is really too large for my use, I wondered for a moment if I did not change the amp, but I can not find the same quality of its amp in a smaller ... So I always had the one!

The distorted sounds are sublime, clean sounds very pure ...

I play this amp with a Fender and a Gibson SG strato. Since I do not want sounds very bold, and I also have an SG, I did not want a marshall. Combining the two seemed too aggressive for my taste.

Strato with no problem. The marriage is perfect.

It is true that, as often with the amp lights, he gives his best even when the lights are hot and a fairly large volume.

OVERALL OPINION

So I use this amp for more than 15 years, repeating, in a group home in concert ... The sound is really beautiful. The main disadvantages are
- No master volume
- Significant weight
- Difficult to play down the volume

FYI I had this amp nine 6000F pay the time! I do not know the rating used ...
