Midwest Emo on the Amulet 12 | Supro Tone Recipe

Grab a capo and brush up on your alternate tunings, we're creating a Midwest Emo tone with the Amulet 1x12 in our latest tone recipe

The Supro Amulet is a vintage-voiced combo loaded with all-tube reverb and tremolo along with a new, 3-way switchable power attenuator. Designed for the gigging guitarist, this lightweight tube amp offers 15 watts, 5 watts or 1 watt of all-tube tone through a UK-made Celestion Creamback speaker. The preamp found in the Amulet delivers warm, blooming clean sounds up to ‘noon’ on its volume knob. Past noon, its voice rolls into classic Supro crunch, giving way to a singing, violin-like overdrive at full volume. The Amulet is remarkably high-gain for a vintage-inspired amp, but offers a sweet spot that is not overwhelmingly loud.

The power amp found in the Amulet uses a single 6L6 tube with switchable power soak to achieve bedroom level 1-watt, studio friendly 5-watt or a more robust 15-watt output for stage use. The overdrive in the Amulet’s “single-ended,” Class-A output stage is rich in even-order harmonics and soaked in natural tube compression. True to the legacy of original Supro combos, the Amulet’s exceptional dynamics, ultra-low noise performance and 3-way power attenuator make it an ideal amplifier for club gigs, studio recording and bedroom practice. Available in 1x10 format or 1x12 exclusively at Sweetwater.

Sounded great... and loved the playing. That reverb is very specific, though. Not sure I would want that on everything.

Nice playing and nice tone. How about just hearing the amp and a guitar? No effects.

Where can I get that Supro sign on the wall behind the drums?!

[bertrandlalanne]

Hey why do you add pedals ? we need to hear the sound of the amp only ...

[gwalt]

Just don't understand why you would demo an amp while using a foot switch to "fatten" the sound without letting us here the amp without the foot switch. Is the sound from the amp too thin?

Can anyone name a Midwest emo band? I need to hear this.

“Midwest Emo tone”…I have been out of the music scene too long.

Hi, I am thinking about buying this amp soon. can you tell me if it is noisy ? I have heard that having only 1 6L6 tubes that you can get hum noise from the power transformer .. So please let me know if it is quiet, thanks
