Loading...
Uploaded by skilback on May 29, 2009
Here's a quick demo of my 1965 Supro Thunderbolt model S6420. This was made by Valco in Chicago. Enjoy!
0:00 - 0:56 = Telecaster with Don Mare pickups
0:56 - 2:26 = Les Paul Standard with Wolfetone Marshallhead pickups
NO EFFECTS PEDALS, just guitar direct into amp and some reverb added after in the mix.

My god that sounds good

@damedoodie Hey! I have an 88T also and the clean sound is so 3-D and sparkling but even at 10, there is virtually no breakup with my Tele...why is this Thunderbolt breaking up so much more if they are basically the same amp?? What does yours sound like?? BTW, I agree that the trem is quite nice...different from blackface Fenders but similar to early 60's Brown circuits I find.

Finally !!! Someone who dares play with overdrive !!!! Love ya !!!!

1:57 is a very tasty riff

The amp is dialed into be crunchy so there is emphasis with frequencies above 2khz sure, but the tone is thick.After all the amp has a 15 inch speaker.
Thin to me is a Fender tweed where you have a small speaker and a tone circuit that emphazises highs.
if you look at the comments here do you see many people with the same opinion as yours?
In otherwords your comment is quite odd.Just sayin'

@bornburied Kind of, and I have good quality monitors...youtube never tells the true story, but yeah...

@lighteningboy You think that sounds thin? GTFO

what speaker does this thing have in it

@PhysicalGraffiti10 The speaker was the stock ceramic 1965 Jensen C15PS.

A very good demo indeed. And great tone. Did you recap the amp and what brand tubes did you end up using? Thanks...
Archer993 1 year ago
@Archer993 Stock caps, I think the tubes were Philips 6L6WGB output tubes and probably Tung-Sol RI 12AX7. The rectifier was the stock RCA 5U4GB.

what Mare pups and what Tele are you using?
greenfish88 1 year ago
@greenfish88 Don Mare S-Telly neck pickup, and the broadcaster 0038 model in the bridge. The Fender Tele has an alder body with maple & rosewood neck.
