Fender Super 210

Came out around 1990-1. The amp really should have come with wheels. It weighs a ton. 2x10 Fender Speaker, footswitch for channels, a spring reverb, effects loop, and an external speaker connector.

I play desert/stoner rock with a Gibson SG and Fender Jaguar, no problems. The gain on this is great. I play the SG clean into the amp and use a colorsound super tone bender with the jag. This rocks. I played a three band bill with all guitarist using this amp. One was a 60 garage band the other a 70 prog rock and the amp handed all sounds.

You?d be hard pushed to damage this beast. I?ve gigged it for years. Droped it, fallen over it, and still it lives.

Never needed it, though fender for guitars are crap.

Been playing 14 years now. Have had a Laney valve and Marshall. Have recorded through a Vox and a fender twin. Forget them.

Fender Super 210 2x10 combo. Made early 90's (my guess is 92). This amp suits me fairly well for the styles of music i play (rock, punk, ska) although is better suited for jazz/country styles. Has 2 channels, clean and gain. Gain channel is VERY loud and picks up very quickly. Has reverb, which is not footswitchable althoug this would be helpful.

I primarily play my Fender Nashville Telecaster through this amp, and get a good sound with it, especially through the clean channel. I prefer not to use the amps distortion (especially with palm mutes) and instead use a zoom 505II pedal, which sounds good through the amp.

Never had any problems with the amp.

I would recommend this amp to anyone who is looking for a good quality tube amp for under 500 bucks (used). I really love the clean channel on this amp, although the distortion can be weak at times as i have said. For jazz/country/blues i would definently recommend this amp, but for harder stuff, i'd leave it be.

Like described befor 60 W, 2x10 Fender Speakers.Original tubes as described above. Two channels, switchable. This Amp is built like a tank and its weight suggests, that it is made of concrete. I bought it secondhand for about 350 $$.
Must be built around 1991/92. One of the best deals I ever made. I am missing the tremolo (but I can live with that) and it should have wheels!!. The boost channel is loud as can be!! Marshall beware!

One of the best clean sounds I ever heard, can`t believe it for such a low price! The gain channel is punchy, the volume control works too rapidly for me, especially when using at home, with gigs its o.K. I play mainly rock and blues, using a 1965 Strat (!) and Tele plus 3 Lace sensor pickups and a Gibson LP DC with 2 pearly gates.
The amp is quiet enough, sometimes a little hum, I guess the tubes should be exchanged sooner or later.

Haven`t had any problems so far.

Haven`t had direct contact (from Germany), but the web page sucks! Poor information, no downloadable Manuals or circuits (or does anybody else know?). Spareparts are hopefully available, if I should ever need some, Tubes for sure.
Fender should have a look at Mesa Boogie, very reliable an friendly and helpful customer service!

I have been playing ever since 1968 through all sorts of Amps. I also own 2 Mesa boogies, a Marshall DSL and an AER Acoustc Amp. If this Amp was stolen, I hope the guy has a good doctor to cure his pain from carrying the Amp. I'd surely buy it again.
I hate it`s weight, but I guess this is the price you have to pay for an excellent sounding amp!

The features was pretty well covered in the previous review (well done). Two 6L6 power tubes, two 12AX7 preamp tubes and a 12AT7 driver for the reverb. Some other things to mention is that it has a bright pull pot on the clean channel. The notch filter adds more mids to the distortion and takes away the fender 'spongy-ness'. This feature makes a huge tonal difference to the OD channel but is barely noticable on the clean channel. It's a simple but yet very effective. I was considering checking out Rivera amps and other amps with loads of knobs to fiddle with but I decided to go with this amp because it sounded great as soon as you plug in.

I use this amp with an Ibanez RG for the heavier stuff and a custom strat for the country, blues and rock. My setup consists of Crybaby Wah, Zoom 1010, MXR Phaser If you wanna play the heavier stuff such as Dream Theater which I play, you'll need to add a distortion pedal to the front of the amp. I found the ultimate sounding distortion pedal in the Korg Hyper-distortion. Too bad they all have reliability problems. For more on that see my Korg review.
This amp wasn't meant for metal though. It is a great country blues and rock amp. The clean channel is the main reason I bought this amp. One of the best clean sounds. It's easy to improve distortion tones later. The O.D channel is very good also. Especially with the gain on 1 and the volume turned up for some sweet overdriven chords. Crank up the gain and you can get some great nasty rock sounds. One other thing is that this amp is very loud. I play in a 12 piece Jazz, rock, blues band and the OD channel cuts through with the volume on 4 I still get told to turn down! I used to think that 10 inch speakers were whimpy until I heard The Prosonic and then this amp. It's a very gutsy amp indeed. A real work horse.

I do use it at gigs with out a back up but I carry spare tubes and fuses. I've just replace the power tubes with a duet of 6L6 groove tubes. It is a little noisy but you get that with all valve amps. I can live with it. Hasn't broken down yet.

I've never had to deal with the company directly. There is an authorised dealer that I always go through and they deal with Fender Australia.

I've been playing for 7 or 8 years now and have played in many bands with styles ranging from Jazz to Country to Progressive rock and Metal. A very nice amp indeed! Great sound. It is VERY heavy though. I'm about to put mine on wheels. It can do just about anything if you find the right distortion pedal, except maybe death metal or course. How many people actually use 10 inch speakers for metal anyway

This red-knob all tube 60w Fender amp was built around 1990 and features 2 - 10" drivers. The amplifier section is identical to the Super 112 with a twin 10" speaker arrangement. There are two footswitchable-input channels, a spring reverb, effects loop, common eq, presence, notch filter line out and an external speaker connector. Reverb is not footswitchable, which would be helpful. Comes in a reasonable size package (same size as Fender Prosonic) and weighs a ton (I put mine on wheels).

I play primarily Blues and Classic Rock on a 78 Tele with an original bridge pickup and a blue lace sensor at the neck You just can't beat the sound from an all tube amplifier. In addition I run my Takemine acoustic through this amp with great results. I'm not in a band nor have ever been, but get a great degree of pleasure from playing at home on my own or with the accompaniment of my hi-fi system and my favorite artists. Previously I used a Peavey Classic 50 hybrid and the Fender is dramatically superior for sound quality. The distortion range on the drive channel is perfect as it allows for a very subtle overdrive activated by the picking intensity to a heavy overdrive. The spring reverb works beautifully to compliment the smooth sound of this amp. I have only one complaint with this amplifier. On the drive channel the volume kicks in too quickly and subtle (in-house with children sleeping) levels are difficult to achieve. I have since added a Morley foot volume control to the effects loop which dose the trick but it would be more convenient if the gain on the drive channel volume was more gradual. The amp is currently a little noisy when recording into my MiniDisc system but I plan to replace all tubes shortly and hope that this characteristic will be improved.

Have owned the amp for only 1 month but the previous owner was my 18-year-old son and if it survived him it must be good. The amp when purchased had a defective 12ax7 which was feeding back at higher volumes, a defective drive channel pot, a mismatched knob and a broken input jack. These parts were all purchased for a total cost less than $20.

Have not had to deal with Fender direct but have located a superb technician in the Toronto area who has to date supplied me with the parts I needed. I highly recommend this guy, Sound FX at 11 Glen Cameron Rd. unit 11B in Thornhill, ON. (905-889-3330). He not only had all the parts I needed in stock but even though I planned on completing the repairs myself he was very helpful and clearly knew what he was talking about. I installed a new pot on the drive channel and a new input jack. What a pleasure working on this amp. The technology I understand. It's kind of like working on a car that still uses a carburator.

I love the amp. I love its sound. I'd recommend it to anyone with a similar arrangement to my own. As I don't play gigs I can't comment on this aspect of the amps performance but I have no reason to expect to be disappointed. I'd love to hear from anyone else using this amp or the other Super series product.
