Detail 01
Two 6V6 power tubes
6V6s compress and break up earlier than 6L6s, so overdrive comes in at lower volume.

FenderSuper-Sonic 22 22W 1x12 Tube Guitar Combo Amp Blonde
1/7
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
22-watt 6V6 tube combo with a clean Fender channel and a high-gain channel. For players who want both voices in one amp at gig-usable volume.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Club gigs where 22W tube volume is enough without micing
- Players who need clean and overdriven sounds without pedals
- Studio work where 6V6 breakup arrives before the room gets loud
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players hauling gear alone up stairs — 40 lbs adds up
- Bedroom-only use where 22W stays too loud to break up
- Budget buyers; this is priced at the pro end
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
22 watts
Loud enough for a drummer in a small club, but headroom runs out before a loud stage does.
Detail 03
Single 12-inch speaker
One 12 gives a focused midrange and directional throw compared to multiple smaller speakers.
Detail 04
Five preamp tubes (3 12AX7, 2 12AT7)
That tube count supports two separate preamp channels plus the reverb and phase inverter stages.
Detail 05
40 lbs, 24 inches wide
Two-hand carry. Fits a car back seat but not most compact trunks upright.
Detail 06
Blonde covering
Cosmetic only. Same circuit and speaker as the black version at the same price.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Tube amps need retubing eventually; budget for a set plus bias work
- 02No cover or footswitch pedal assumed — confirm what ships in the box
- 03Let tubes warm up and cool before moving the amp to protect them
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is 22 watts loud enough to gig?
For clubs and rehearsal with a normal drummer, yes. For loud stages without PA support, you may want more clean headroom.
02What's the difference between the blonde and black version?
Covering color. Same 22W circuit, same tube complement, same 1x12 speaker, same price.
03Can I get clean tones at low volume?
Yes. The clean side stays clean well below full volume; the overdrive voice needs more level to open up.
04How heavy is it to carry?
40 pounds in a 24-inch-wide cabinet. Manageable for one person over short distances, awkward for stairs.
