Has a Volume, Tone and three inputs. The inputs are labeled. 2 of them are Instrument, and one Mic. One white pilot lamp. Plate with knobs in on top of this combo like all old supros. It has a gray covering, with a white "racing" stripe around the whole thing, supro painted on on the black speaker felt grill. Has 1 6x9 speaker, and 3 tubes. Sylvania 6V6-GT, RCA 5Y3-GT, and a Sylvania 12Ax7. I'm not sure.. but the Sylvania's may be original. This amp doesn't look like it was played much. Has a fuse next to the light on top. Looks quality built! If anyone has any more info about this amp, or questions feel free to e-mail me.
Sound Quality
:
8
Basically you take the amp, crank it almost all the way, and adjust the volume on your guitar if you want clean less and distortion turn the volume up.. etc.. It has a absolute SWEET sound for it's size, and the 6X9 (could be 6X10) sounds really good. Has a really good bluesy sound. Blows away any transistor amp of yesterday on clean tone. I give this one an 8 because of it's size and the sound it does have.

Great sounding amp for practice. Put a Sansamp GT2 in front of it and you got a excellent practice machine with quality built in and tube warmness and a great clean tone. Supro made some quality amps in there time... I'm going to buy some more vintage Supro items in the future for sure.
