Official Info below:
The Supro Titan, a 50-watt 1×10 combo with reverb and tremolo, the Jupiter 1×12 combo with three position rectifier, and Rhythm Master a 1×15 combo with reverb and tremolo, have all joined their ever-growing stable of classic valve amp designs.

Supro Titan (1642RT) – £1229.00 rrp
The Supro Titan is a 50-Watt, 1×10″ tube combo that cranks out astonishing stage volume and massive clean headroom while maintaining the coveted, Class-A Supro sound. This model is distinctly intended for the gigging guitarist who needs a small size, yet high-power, vintage flavored amp tube that can handle the output from a massive pedal board full of fuzz, delay and other stomp-boxes, without the need for an effects loop.

Combining the traditional, cathode-biased, 6L6 power section found in the high power Supro amps of the 60s with the cabinet dimensions of Supro’s award-winning Tremo-Verb model, the Titan delivers unrivaled definition and projection in a remarkably compact, gig friendly package. Never sterile or clinical sounding, the Titan has a huge, warm, full bodied sound with enough volume to play any size venue.

The Titan amp comes equipped with a brand-new, state of the art, USA made HP10 speaker that was designed specifically for this model. The HP10 speaker is a unique driver that combines the exceptional clarity and treble extension of the Supro CR10 speaker, with a larger magnet and a hemp cone for a distinctively smooth character that remains sweet, no matter how hard you push it.

Tube driven six-spring reverb and output tube tremolo add depth and dimension to the Titan’s glorious sound. As with all Supro reverb amps, the tremolo is found after the reverb, creating a haunting, vintage-correct modulated reverb effect that is unique to the Supro range. Love pedals?

Supro Jupiter (1668RT) – £1329.00 rrp
The Supro Jupiter is a modern masterpiece. This top-of-the-line Supro amp is intended for the performing guitarist who needs a vintage sounding amp that gracefully handles the output from a complex pedal rig. The Jupiter amplifier excels at rock, funk, fusion, jazz and electronic music genres, providing the necessary headroom punch and stage volume without sacrificing the fundamental dynamics and tonal characteristics that have made Supro amps famous.

The Jupiter model features Supro’s unique switchable rectifier topology, allowing musicians to select 35-Watts (Class A) or 45 / 60 watts (Class AB) to suit the gig at hand. The 35 watt cathode bias mode uses the legendary Thunderbolt power amp topology for a harmonically saturated, tube-rectified sound that combines wonderfully with this 1×12” platform. The 45 and 60 watt grid bias modes provide more volume and headroom as well as the faster transient response associated with Class AB power amps.

The switchable power amp topology of the Jupiter not only allows for players to change the texture and output volume of the amp but it also provides two very different, all-tube tremolo effects depending on whether Class A (cathode bias) or Class AB (grid bias) mode is selected. The cathode bias tremolo is vintage Valco/Supro all the way, where the overall depth of the effect changes along with the dynamics of your playing. The grid bias tremolo is gives a much deeper, stronger and more pronounced throbbing effect. Since the tremolo is performed by modulating the bias of the output tubes, the reverb necessarily comes before the tremolo effect, for a mesmerizing combination of pure tube reverb and tremolo when both effects are combined.

The Jupiter amp comes equipped with a brand-new, state of the art, USA made HP12 speaker that was designed specifically for this model. The HP12 speaker is a unique driver that combines the exceptional clarity and treble extension of the Supro DT12 speaker, with superior power handling due to a larger magnet and a hemp cone. This speaker’s distinctively smooth character remains sweet, no matter how hard you push it, delivering a full bodied woody tone has no equal in the world of guitar speakers.

Supro Rhythm Master (1675RT) – £1329.00 rrp
For those players who love the huge, bold sound of the 1×15” Thunderbolt amp, but need a lush, all-tube reverb to fill out their sound, Supro presents the 1675RT Rhythm Master amplifier. Rooted in Supro tradition, this vintage inspired model is loaded with independent bass and treble controls, six-spring long pan reverb, output tube tremolo and switchable Class A / Class AB power amp wiring for 35, 45 or 60 watts of vintage American tone.

The Rhythm Master’s USA made custom 15” driver is the most accurate and true sounding 15” guitar speaker on the market, with a full, broadband sound that is never muddy. To create this signature speaker, Supro worked with Eminence to combine the best elements of classic 15” speakers with modern construction methods and materials to achieve a vintage voiced driver with superior power handling and juicy bottom end.

The unique power amp topology of the Rhythm Master not only allows for players to change the texture and output volume of the amp but it also provides two very different, all-tube tremolo effects depending on whether Class A (cathode bias) or Class AB (grid bias) mode is selected. The cathode bias tremolo is vintage Valco/Supro all the way, where the overall depth of the effect changes along with the dynamics of your playing. The grid bias tremolo is gives a much deeper, stronger and more pronounced throbbing effect. Since the tremolo is performed by modulating the bias of the output tubes, the reverb necessarily comes before the tremolo effect, for a mesmerizing combination of pure tube reverb and tremolo when both effects are combined.
