You can check out Mike Kerr's official [artist page](http://intl.fender.com/es-AR/artists/profile/RoyalBlood/) on the Fender website, with this photo containing his Fender Super Bassman Pro.

Bass - 7 ? Mid - 7 ? Treble - 7,5 ? Gain - 7 ? Blend - 3 ? Volume - 5 ? Bass - 7,5 ? Freq - 8 ? Mid-Level - 6 ? Treble - 8 ? Master - 4 (http://i1369.photobucket.com/albums/ag202/gdgear/vlcsnap-2014-10-02-14h35m05s113_zps33cafd58.png http://i1369.photobucket.com/albums/ag202/gdgear/vlcsnap-2014-10-02-14h34m55s250_zpsce189117.png)

["When I plugged into the Super Bassman, I was completely floored and taken aback. This is what I had been looking for. It is, quite simply, a mighty animal. Musicians and audiences alike have been wowed by my sound."](http://www.fender.com/amps/quotes/)

In this performance at the KEXP studios, we see a fender super bassman with an 8x10 cabinet behind Lucas, and also a backup behind the cabinet. Since the begining of the band, Lucas seemed to have used whatever amp he had available for bass. But on early 2018, he bought the amp to keep a more concistent sound. He used it for the first half of the 2018 tour, but he stopped using it for the second half, in favor of an Ampeg SVT CL.

"As far as other bass equipment - I use the Fender Super Bass Man. From the minute I took it out of the box I was in love, and won't use anything else. Not only does it sound HUGE. but the range of sounds and tones you can get is uncanny. Highly recommended."

Michael Shuman used the head and some matches cabinets on the "Like Clockwork" Tour in 2013.

For years, Sullivan has been a user of the mighty Verellen Meatsmoke, but for the band’s most recent run of European dates he opted for a Fender Super Bassman and hasn’t looked back. He relies on stompboxes for any dirt and drive, so he really enjoys the clean headroom his all-Fender lineup provides. It rests on and powers a standard Ampeg 8x10 cab.

In this video, Matt can be seeing playing in a Fender Super Bassman head

He says its either from 2012 or 2013

This Fender Super Bassman running through the matching 8x10 cab was adding the low end thump to Eoin's guitar sound at Glasto and Reading (also on youtube) 2014. This was removed when they added Bassist, Rob Graham who took over this low end role on songs from the new album Undertow. The Super Bassman is sitting on the far left of his row of amps in this video atop the 8x10 cab.

At 1:04 you see the head. It's the white version, and it's this model because only the Bassman has this logo at the right of the head.

Tim outlines his tour gear setup in an Instagram post: "…@fenderguitar super bassman..."

On Van Halen's 2012 tour, Wolfgang used 2 Super Bassman heads (with 2 backups). The vintage channel of one head drives a Fender 2X15 cab, while the overdrive channel of the other drives a Fender 8X10 cab.

"I have, unless they're holding out on me - they better not have made another one yet - the new Fender Bassman 300. It's got 65-50 tube, power tubes, in it. It's like the vintage Bassmans but it has more power now. It has two channels now: a vintage and like a modern channel. On my pedalboard I've made a special pedal switcher as well that actually has a light built into it that lets me know which of the channels I'm using on there. The other thing is that with the new Super Bassman line they're doing neo cabs with the super lightweight cabs. They sent me one and it just wasn't working for me in particular. It was great to move around because it's super light, but the sound it was aggresive because it didn't have the low end that I wanted - it didn't hit me in the chest - and so they were very nice to make some that had real speakers in there. So I'm using two. I love it. I love the way it looks, Iove the way it sounds. I love the dual channel because I can get a variety of sounds. I have an ever changing mood of bass sounds and tones so I think it's great to have an amp that has two channels in case my mood changes then I can just switch the channel and change with it."

"..the combination of the p-bass and the Super Bassman gives me the actual tone I wanted. It´s got that vintage sound.." expresses Daniel Tichenor about his Fender Super Bassman.

One of the most powerful and versatile bass amps Fender has ever created, the Super Bassman is a stadium-level 300-watt tube head designed for the biggest shows and the largest stages, with enormous Fender bass sound and sparkling vintage Fender looks. Perfect for stage and studio alike, its dual-channel design uses modern technology to maximize classic technology, with classic Fender '60s "blackface" styling and a wealth of innovative features on the front and rear panels. Features include a tube preamp (two 12AX7s) and power amp (one 12AX7, one 12AT7, six 6550s); Vintage channel that delivers the full, warm sound of a classic Fender passive tone stack; Overdrive channel that delivers the aggressive and responsive sound of a modern active tone stack (choose between channels with included footswitch); rear-panel Fender Automatic Bias system that constantly monitors and re-biases tubes for perfect performance and alerts you when service is required; Speaker Output switch that can be set to “Mute” to turn speaker off and record silently using preamp tone from the XLR output; Impedance switch (8, 4 or 2 ohms) and master volume control with push/pull mute.

The Super Bassman can be seen behind Vass. Adam has the Super Bassman in the Blonde and Oxblood colorway.

> On our last tour my SVT kept breaking down and unfortunately I had no back up with me. Adam from La Dispute was kind enough to let me use his Super Bassman for most of the tour. I've fallen in love with this beast. Everything my old amp could do and even more.

Tom uses a fender super baseman.
