After your seeing your previous video, I picked up a used Blues King 12 upgraded with an Eminence Red Coat speaker. It sounds great. I like the stripes on the new ones, but I guess I'll stick with my old faithful. It seems like these are flying under the radar; I like the tone and flexibility much more than the BJr alternative. They seem like no-brainers at that price point.
Yeah no doubt ! The Blues junior kinda sucks compared to this Supro ! The red coat is a great speaker but I wonder what an alnico speaker would do with this amp !?!?! Probably turn into a tweed monster !
@@JaredSchumaier I didn't put it in there; I bought it used. It is the 75 watt one however. I haven't swapped it out because I like the way the amp breaks up.
Bought this in the black on black on the strength of this review. Great combo of the right playing and discussion of this amp’s attributes. I might even buy a second one for my living room if I find the right deal! It’s that fun. Great job Supro!
that opening riff(s) reminded me so much of Jorma when he was touring w/ Hot Tuna mid 70's... The Laundry Detergent Box tour - HOT TUNA fans will know. You Rock, Jack. PEACE.
@@shane011471 sound demos show that Delta sounds just like Blues king, either you like it or not :) Can you record us how proper supro sounds, so we can immediately hear that your tone is much better that the tones in this video? ;)
@@SergeiVlassov Not saying the tone is any better or worse FFS! My son just spent over 1k to bring a original back to life and it sounds far better in every respect!! These new Supro's are built to a price IE =Cheap and let me know how many are NOT in a landfill in 60 years time? They are cheap FOR A REASON my friend as you get what you pay for and nothing more!
I orderd a Supro Delta King this spring. Last week I got it. connected it, playd some tones.I took the jack out- a loud thunder and smell of burnd cables. F************!...the king 12 got back to new york.
Mines the Blues King 12 and it's got that Marshall Browne sound brewing and it's freaking loud loud 15 watts ! I used it with a 410 celestion cabinet I happen to have got from queensryche in Seattle and the Supro BK12 seems louder with just the combo speaker on it's own and seems to fill up the room better than closed back b410 cabinet 🤷🏻♀️
Probably because of the way the single 12 focuses the tone - the 412 I imagine gets boomier and wider, but loses some of that "direct in your face" element.
Great review Jack! This is truly the most enjoyable amp I’ve ever played. I’ve owned a lot! Including the Fender Blues Junior tweed, and an original 1964 Supro 16T (great tone but no real volume to speak of). The BJ is a great amp with more clean headroom than the Delta King, but it does not even come close to the same versatility of tone. In my opinion this amp really doesn’t have any bad tones in it. The overdrive circuit sounds incredibly good, especially with the guitar’s volume rolled off for rhythm and rolled up for leads. The boost is incredibly usable as well. Every pickup combination I put into it sounds like you would’ve imagined they were meant to sound back in the day. This is just an insanely good sounding amp and I enjoy everything about it. I don’t regret selling my blues junior because this is far more authentic and usable in my opinion. Are you going to get loads and loads of clean headroom? No! That’s not what this amp is designed for. It does have a decent amount of headroom though. On another note, I’m a huge pedal user and this thing takes pedals like a champ. I have absolutely no regrets and I bought it sight unseen off of Reverb. FYI that I also have three other amps that I use that are all incredible in their own right, including a $2000 hand-wired model, but for sure enjoyment and playability, I love this amp the most!
@@BkBk-gy6vr i’ve watched almost every review available for this amp, and they certainly do not collectively say that. I also actually own this amp BTW, so I can speak from first-hand experience and say that it is definitely not “fizzy“. For the record, I also owned a 1964 Supro 16 T, a similar, but not the same amp. The tone isn’t quite the same but is very close to that one. If you don’t like old-school overdrive on low wattage amps, maybe this just isn’t your thing?
Thanks for the very informative video. The Supro 12 was recommended to me by Sweetwater because of it's versatility. After seeing this video, I understand what they mean. I think this amp will fill the bill.
That strat has quite significant buzzing noise. Some of my guitars had exactly the same, and some did not have. Then I discovered that those that have it are not shielded,and shielding helped against that type of the noise.
Looks like he was in Position 5 (neck only), so the buzzing could have just been 60 cycle hum. Having said that, I've watched many reviews on this amp and have noticed a lot of noise.
@@ALEX_STRUCK no, listen carefully from the beginning of the strat. It is not hum, 60 Hz gives 120Hz harmonics, but here he has high frequency buzz. Some of my guitars had it before full shielding.
Hey Jack... Super dig your vids & content. I was thinking about buying this amp but since it would be coming from Thomann I figured maybe it wasn't worth buying. I hate buying stuff online I like to try gear out before I purchase. Cheers. Mike.
I have the Delta King 12 and love it. I think you did a very good job showing the different tones you can get from the amp. It is definitely loud. I have the Bugera power attenuator hooked up to it and it is great for being able to get cranked tones at bedroom appropriate volume. It also cleans up great just by rolling off the guitar volume knob to 8. The speaker is not hard wired so it is very easy to connect a power attenuator.
@@SergeiVlassov I will take a picture for you but basically you take the bake cover off. There is maybe 6-8 screws. Then you unplug the amp from the speaker. The wire you disconnected form the speaker goes to The attenuator and then the a attenuator gets plugged into the speaker. I am at work and don’t remember the names of the inputs I plugged into but it was very easy. I keep the attenuator on top of the amp as the plug is just long enough. You get get an adapter to add a longer cable if you wanted
@@toddknaster9731 Thank you very much! So the speaker is not directly soldered to poweramp, but there are standart mono jack connections? It is really great if so! Some of the amps I had/have are made like that and I use attenuator with them without soldering anything, but they have accesible connections visible on the back panel. When I was looking at Delta King pictures I could not find any, so I was wondering how you realised the connections.
@@toddknaster9731 super! thank you! no pictures is needed, I got it. these are the good news, since I don't want to do irreversible mods to the amp as long as it is ubder warranty period. I did to one of my older amps by drilling additional hole and introdicing the speaker input (it already had speaker output), so I can put attenuator in between. Good to know here it can be done easier!
Thanks for the upload Jack. Ive got the quarantine blues. Tested positive Friday. But I did inherit my dads 86 MIJ Fender Stratocaster yesterday thanks to a friend who picked it up for me. What do you think of Fender MIJ guitars?
Dude ! I've got a killer 1987 Japan Stratocaster called the system 1 stratocaster fiesta red 1962 reissue with the Floyd style tremolo ! It's freaking awesome ! So awesome infact I've played the frets off it and it's indeed in need of new frets ! Great guitars, especially if you love vintage Strat and telecaster but can't afford the $20,000 price tags for vintage fenders !
@@AuntAlnico4 the one I got is from the e series it also had the Floyd Rose type system replaced with an actual Floyd Rose. I do plan on replacing the pickups and pots.
Good review. I recently acquired this amp & I love the "Supro" tone. However, the drive switch adds ridiculous amounts of gain AND volume no matter how the volume or master are set. Maybe I'm doing something wrong , but this makes it unusable in any live setting if you were to use the foot switch for the drive for a solo or something.
The 12 would be perfect at church where the drummer is somewhat isolated. Thinking about getting rid of my drive pedals and running two amps with an a/b/y pedal. My clean will be my hot rod deluxe which is barely on 3 while plugged into input number one. I could see the Supro adding to my tone big time. It’s using a 6L6 is a plus since I have plenty of them in my stash for the hot rod. Great review Jack.
Isolated drums are such a lovely thing in this world. I used to play a weekly gig where the drummer was surrounded by a clear fiberglass partition - best sound control ever. It was amazing.
I have the 10. Love it with a strat, the boost and drive sound nice. p90s I don’t like at all and I only like humbuckers without the drive switch. Pre all the up gives a decent dirt. Works well with volume knobs on the guitar. I Use it in the living room so I don’t really run pedals through it. Overall I’d say 4 outta 5. Probably will swap it out for a Princeton and deal with the extra noise later this year.
They are kinda different amps all together ! This Supro is classic American class A tweed/Princeton reverb that has the pedal built into the amp to turn Marshall gain no problems ! The all I'm one solution for living room bar room classic rock and blues even jazz amp ! The Vox on the other is going to need a couple pedals to gain the same ground the Supro Delta King 12 it's covering ! The Vox is also class A but with very British tubes and known for "jangle" which I honestly don't hear in Vox amps on their own but I guess it's what that are known for !? Maybe check out sound samples on TH-cam and such of the Vox to compare and then listen to Supro Delta King 12 videos !
@@AuntAlnico4 appreciate the feedback, but I was hoping to hear from Jack himself. I've got the Vox AC10C1 myself and have played the Supro at Guitar Center. I know Jack has now played both.
Okay, so what's the difference between the Blues King and the Delta King? They seem to be the same amp, but the Delta has a bit less fuzzy drive? and stripes on the tolex? I looked at the specs and couldn't find much difference. (BTW, I have the 5 watt Blues King 10 as well as the 15 watt 12) They're cool amps. I love to get dirty with them, and play old timey blues slide on my CBG.
Jack what speaker would you recommend for this supro. you gave me a recommendation for a Marshall Origin 50 and it worked out great. Hoping for same outcome on this amp. Thanks.
Hey Jack was curious, this seems like the same exact amp as the Supro Blues King 12 with just a different outer tolex design. I think the voicing, tubes, and EQ section are the same. Can you or anyone else confirm?
I own this amp and it is probably the most enjoyable amp I’ve ever played or owned. I also had a Blues Junior (not the Pro) and this blows that amp away, not even close. So many great tones is this amp.
Do you notice any extra drive when both the volume and master volume are maxed? Or does the master volume work only to adjust the volume output? I just got this amp, but haven't been able to fully crank it yet to see which is the case
i m thinking about the 5 watt version. i would like something that gets me that early bluesy rock typ sound. I was looking at the 57 champ but thats twice the price and i already have a princeton wich i love. I m looking for somthing to complement my princeton in a dual amp setup - princeton for the cleans and 5 watt amp for the natural breakup, would the delta king be a good choice for my situation?
That's exactly what I'm considering. Fender is a tried and true classic too. I don't know. The Marshall dsl40cr is also an awesome small combo amp just slightly higher in price but 40watts too. 🤷♂️
@@GenX4ever decisions decisions. Here in NZ they are both priced at NZ$1499 locally but I can get the blues Junior from andertons for $1100 delivered which I am leaning more towards.
Without a doubt. I owned the Tweed BJ which I loved but this is so much better and way more versatile. The BJ will give you more clean headroom but in my opinion that’s about the only advantage. This amp is also great with pedals.
I have a Crate Palomino 16 (US made) that is FAR more versatile than this Supro. Huge amounts of clean headroom and very graceful breakup as you nudge the gain upwards. None of that woolly over saturation like the Supro. And while my Palomino has a Boost button, it’s a useful addition at the power amp and gives you more volume without a ton of extra gain. I think a lot of these tube combos coming out in recent years have been voiced really aggressively and likely towards the tastes of kids wanting tons of distortion. IMHO, a mark of a great tube amp is the amount of usable clean headroom, along with good note definition. The gain push with a boost or overdrive pedal can be applied to any front end to achieve the menu of crunch and distortions, but why voice these amps as one-trick ponies? I get the “Delta Blues” deal but “versatile” this amp is not…..just my opinion. But it’s sexy to look at, I concede.
I must have different ears than some other people watching this video. I thought everything Jack played on the Strat and 345 sounded great. I think everything he played on the SG sounded like pure garbage. (Can garbage even be "pure"?) However, he did demonstrate that the Supro amp is capable of some great sounds.
It sucks for me to watch reviews of anything guitar related. I f*cking hate gain. Every single guitar/amp sounds the same. I'll just take two empty cans of Twisted Tea, some fishing wire and a car battery and it will sound like every other high-gain combo in existence. It's a joke, but now I'm seriously thinking of doing it!
Hello. You’ve reached the Jack Fossett & Friends help line. For those of you that have bought excessive gear due to Jack’s videos, that’s good! You’ve taken your first step into a larger world. For angry wives of the husbands whom have bought said excessive gear, please remain on the line! Our representatives will be with you as soon as we can.
Practice amp is best description of this amp. Tube amp is least accurate description of this amp. The sweet clean to breakup tone is lost when turning this up. Which is it's best feature! So for a practice amp I would expect $299 to be it's target price. $699 would be a gig-able amp. It's great at lower volume which a real tube amp just doesn't give you because they are lout! So great practice amp but pricey. I guess that is why these are not flying off the shelves. This amp is not LOUD not compared to any tube amp I've ever had before. Not capable to do band setting unless you're playing in a soft Jazz band. Some serious misinformation in the Overview here! This amp's loud ends where my Blues Deluxe Reissue starts. SMH Drive is diode driven, I've heard worse but not a lot. Breakup is AWESOME! Pretty expensive amp for it not being gig-able.
I've used it in a band setting multiple times and had plenty of volume. Thanks for the "misinformation" accusation though, never gotten that one before! Have a great day ~

Not necessarily but sometimes - I’m working on a shootout actually
@@JackFossett thanks. Looking forward to that video!
Without a doubt. I owned the Tweed BJ which I loved but this is so much better and way more versatile. The BJ will give you more clean headroom but in my opinion that’s about the only advantage. This amp is also great with pedals.
I have a Crate Palomino 16 (US made) that is FAR more versatile than this Supro. Huge amounts of clean headroom and very graceful breakup as you nudge the gain upwards. None of that woolly over saturation like the Supro. And while my Palomino has a Boost button, it’s a useful addition at the power amp and gives you more volume without a ton of extra gain. I think a lot of these tube combos coming out in recent years have been voiced really aggressively and likely towards the tastes of kids wanting tons of distortion. IMHO, a mark of a great tube amp is the amount of usable clean headroom, along with good note definition. The gain push with a boost or overdrive pedal can be applied to any front end to achieve the menu of crunch and distortions, but why voice these amps as one-trick ponies? I get the “Delta Blues” deal but “versatile” this amp is not…..just my opinion. But it’s sexy to look at, I concede.
I must have different ears than some other people watching this video. I thought everything Jack played on the Strat and 345 sounded great. I think everything he played on the SG sounded like pure garbage. (Can garbage even be "pure"?) However, he did demonstrate that the Supro amp is capable of some great sounds.
i havent heard a single good recording of that amp on the web
might feel better irl
Kind of a niche amp, but aren't they all.
It sucks for me to watch reviews of anything guitar related. I f*cking hate gain. Every single guitar/amp sounds the same. I'll just take two empty cans of Twisted Tea, some fishing wire and a car battery and it will sound like every other high-gain combo in existence. It's a joke, but now I'm seriously thinking of doing it!
Ok ..your fault .. I bought one

I'm always disappointed when there's no amp porn
This is a family friendly channel 🤷♂️
@@JackFossett just give a quick peak inside the chassis, but give a warning first so small children can leave the room.
Practice amp is best description of this amp. Tube amp is least accurate description of this amp. The sweet clean to breakup tone is lost when turning this up. Which is it's best feature! So for a practice amp I would expect $299 to be it's target price. $699 would be a gig-able amp. It's great at lower volume which a real tube amp just doesn't give you because they are lout! So great practice amp but pricey. I guess that is why these are not flying off the shelves.
This amp is not LOUD not compared to any tube amp I've ever had before. Not capable to do band setting unless you're playing in a soft Jazz band. Some serious misinformation in the Overview here! This amp's loud ends where my Blues Deluxe Reissue starts. SMH
Drive is diode driven, I've heard worse but not a lot. Breakup is AWESOME! Pretty expensive amp for it not being gig-able.
I've used it in a band setting multiple times and had plenty of volume. Thanks for the "misinformation" accusation though, never gotten that one before! Have a great day ~
Sounds way too fizzy with gain.
I really dislike amps with Knobs where you can't see the marks very well. . The fat Mod made that thing sound tubbie.
