A friend was showing off his Fender Super-Sonic 100 - one that I really regret selling him. The Super-Sonic 22 and 60 are great amps, but the 100 is a notch higher. It's a terrible shame Fender stopped making them. The Super-Sonic 60 sounded awesome but really loud and hard to tame. However the 100 sounds awesome at any volume. Such a shame they don't make them anymore.
 
Didn't Matthias Jabs rock one of these for a while? I think it was between the SLO and whatever he uses now years.
 
The lead sound beautiful on this . Eric Johnson lead tone
 
Yeah, it has a real good tone. The cleans aren't as thin as the other Super-sonics either, but full and lush. The overdrive is superb, and because of the gain knobs, you can get such an excellent bend of fuzzy or tighter distortion sounds. It also has some cool tube features.
