Supro continues to grow its range, with the addition of the new all-tube Black Magick amp.
The design uses the cabinet dimensions from a ’59 Supro 2×10, replaces the baffle with a 1×12, and gives the 25-watt combo a custom, British-voiced speaker that was specially developed for the Black Magick amp.
The preamp found in the Black Magick features two channels wired in parallel, with independent volume controls and a single, shared tone control. The vintage-correct front-end topology of the original 1959 Supro combos has been streamlined in the Black Magick, with automatic linking of channels 1&2 when using only the first input jack. It provides double the gain when used with one instrument and also allows for two instruments to share the same Black Magick or for the use of an A/B/Y box to achieve channel-switching on the fly.
The amp’s traditional, cathode-biased “Class-A” power section uses 6973 tubes to achieve the instantly recognisable midrange grind and touch dynamics.
