Default Any luv for the Fender Super Sonic

60w with cascading gain stages like the Pro Sonic, a Bassman curcuit and a Vibrolux curcuit.

Basically it has three main tones. I love the "Burn" channel, with the first gain at 3 and the second gain all the way up, it sounds like "Texas Flood"

I own a Zendrive 2 and don't use it with this amp, the driven amp sounds better than anything the pedal can offer. So I don't use it. (well, I use it on my Blues Deluxe).

At 56lbs, it's on the edge of portable.


Any experience or luv with this amp

Haven't had a chance to play through the amp yet, but I am intrigued by it. I've played through the 2x12 extension cabinet, though, and it sounds real nice.

How do you like the Zendrive 2? Have you compared it to the normal Zendrive?

I feel the zen 2 is similar but warmer than the zen.

It sounds wonderful with my Blues Deluxe

I have not been able to use it as an enhancement to the Super Sonic, the amp goes there all by itself. Seriously.

Fenders most smoking amp because of those cascading gains.
