Title: Carolina SuperSonic
Post by: tubenit on July 25, 2021, 05:02:52 am
A friend had a Fender SuperSonic 22 amp that didn't work.  I gutted it only using the chassis and transformers, on/off and standby switch.


Soundclips for the amp are here: Carolina SuperSonic amp demos (el34world.com) (https://el34world.com/Forum/index.php?topic=27765.0)


Thread on the amp build is here along with a few photos    SuperSonic 22 conversion (el34world.com) (https://el34world.com/Forum/index.php?topic=27693.0)


I think the amp has a lovely overdrive tone and on this amp, the PPIMV is actually useful getting a good overdrive tone with the PPIMV dialed down as low as 3-4


Despite the lack of neatness in the build, the amp is amazingly quiet at idle even with the volume turned up considerably louder than I normally would play.


With respect, Tubenit
