Pretty good, looks better than it sounds

Since I don't like using combos unless I have to, I use this for clean and crunch sound. If you add a compressor to the sound it sounds similar to a Dumble. It can't take much overdrive so that's why I only gave it 4 stars.

Great fender cleans. Bad drive channel.

Has classic fender cleans, therefore takes pedals like a dream. I wish so much the 60 head has reverb like the 100 Head. Drive channel isn't great, needs to be cranked to get something plausible out of it.

Hidden at the back of Goto's rig during Ajikan's performances, Goto has been seen using this amp live since Magic Disk (potentially earlier but to be checked). The Supersonic is used primarily as his distortion amp, operated by a custom footswitch for songs such as Easter and Rewrite. He might use additional drive provided by an overdrive pedal for solos or heavier tracks.
