The Blues King has a Class A power section, a custom-designed eight-inch Supro speaker, and simplified controls to provide you with perfect tones right out of the box. You'll be able to fatten up your tone with the footswitchable boost that works especially well with single-coil guitars. Want an amp that's descended from the classics? Choose the Supro Blues King 8.

Classic power section for superior tone

The secret to the classic Supro tone is the power amp. True to the originals, the Blues King 8 has a vintage style power section and Class A tubes. This construction allows the amp to pump out crunchy tones that sit perfectly between rock, blues, and country. The Blues King 8 has simple controls to let you shape the sound. You can tweak the input volume, master tone, and master volume to create your perfect sound. When you crank the input volume and keep the master volume low you'll produce a hard-hitting saturated tone without waking the dead.

Custom-designed speaker

Another thing that sets the Blues King 8 apart is its custom-made 8" speaker. This speaker is designed to capture the essence of the original speakers that made Supro famous. This speaker has a bold midrange that breaks up perfectly as you increase the volume. And guitarists enjoy the line output that eliminates the need to mic your amp for recording.
