• Re-creation of a classic amp from the '50s
• Two parallel channels
• Compact and powerful for gigging

In the 1950s, the original Supro Supreme all-tube electric guitar combo amplifiers caught on with both jazz and rock 'n' roll guitarists because they offered such a true-sounding clean and could be cranked up for lush overdriven tones. In fact, they were often seen propelling the legendary guitar playing of Keith Richards. This re-creation nails those tones, while also being true to the original's vintage aesthetics. We can already tell this is going to be a hugely popular amplifier at Sweetwater.

The soul of the Supro 1600 Supreme combo amp is its two channels that are run in parallel. This allows you to run one for more clean headroom - fantastic for cleaner playing styles such as old-school country and jazz - or you can plug into an input that blends both channels for more harmonically dense overdrive that responds amazingly to your touch and technique. And you'll attain true channel switching by running an A/B or A/B/Y pedal into the front of the 1600 Supreme to go from clean to scream instantly.

With the Supro 1600 Supreme's wide range of voices, it is a wonderful platform for just about any style of modern guitar playing. This is huge for session players who need to go from gig to gig and genre to genre quickly. At only 33.6 lbs., the Supreme is easy to move when it's time to load in or load out, and it's small enough to comfortably fit in the back of your car or a packed band van. When you need a quick grab-and-go guitar amp that won't break your back and will easily be able to handle any style you throw at it, make sure you have a Supro 1600 Supreme in your arsenal.
