Rear Panel

L.POWER—Turns the amp ON-OFF. You can extend the life of the amplifier tubes by keeping the STANDBY {M} switch down for the first 60 seconds that the power is ON.

M.STANDBY—In standby, the amplifier outputs are dis- abled while power is supplied to the tube filaments only, keeping them warm. *Tip: Use STANDBY instead of switching the power off during short breaks to extend tube life and avoid the warm-up delay upon returning to play.

N.IEC POWER INPUT SOCKET—Connect to a grounded outlet using the supplied power cord, in accordance with the voltage and frequency specified on the rear panel of your amplifier.

O.FUSE—Protects the amplifier from electrical faults. Only replace a blown fuse with the type and rating specified on the rear panel of your amplifier.

P.SEND LEVEL—Adjusts the output level of the SEND {Q} jack. Use to accommodate the input sensitivity of your external effects device.

Q.SEND / RETURN—Effects loop jacks. Connect SEND to your effects device input and RETURN to the effects out- put. TIP: The FX button on the footswitch can function as a volume boost switch even without effects in the loop. Simply connect SEND to RETURN with a guitar cable then adjust SEND LEVEL {P} and RETURN LEVEL {R} for the desired level of volume boost.

R.RETURN LEVEL—Adjusts the RETURN {Q} jack input level going into the power amp. Use to match the vol- ume level of the amp when effects are off, or to set an alternate volume level selectable from the footswitch.

S.PRE AMP OUT—An unbalanced, line-level output (includes Reverb on the 112 Combo amps) suitable for connection to recording equipment and sound systems. NOTE: You can connect this jack to the POWER AMP IN jack on a second Super-Sonic amp for a double amplifier setup. in which you can control both units from the con- trol panel of the primary amplifier.

T.POWER AMP IN—A direct input to the power amplifier. The preamp circuit is automatically disconnected when a plug is inserted into this jack. Useful when adding a second Super-Sonic as an extension power amplifier. Connect this jack to PRE AMP OUT from another amp.

U.FOOTSWITCH—Connect the included 3-button footswitch to enable remote selection of: Amp Voicing {C}, Channel {E} and FX Loop Bypass. These buttons {C & E} are disabled on the front panel when the footswitch is con- nected.

V.MAIN SPEAKER / EXTENSION SPEAKER—

����������������������� A speaker must ALWAYS be plugged into the MAIN

SPKR jack when the Super–Sonic amplifier is ON or damage may occur. Switch the amplifier OFF or to STANDBY while changing speaker connections or imped-

ance settings.

(112 COMBO AMPS)—Keep the internal speaker con- nected to the MAIN SPKR jack for normal operation. Plug an 8Ω extension speaker into the EXT SPKR jack and the Super–Sonic amplifier will automatically switch to handle a 4Ω load.

Combo Amplifiers specifications

Fender combo amplifiers have long been a staple in the music world, celebrated for their distinctive tone, versatility, and user-friendly design. These all-in-one units combine an amplifier and speakers into a single chassis, making them a popular choice among guitarists and bassists of all skill levels.

One of the defining features of Fender combo amplifiers is their iconic tonal character. Drawing from decades of innovation, these amplifiers deliver warm, rich tones that are a hallmark of Fender's legacy. The Classic American tone, characterized by crisp highs and lush mids, makes these amplifiers ideal for a wide variety of genres, from rock and blues to jazz and country.

Fender offers a diverse range of combo amplifiers, catering to different musical styles and performance needs. The range includes everything from the compact Fender Mustang series, which embraces modern digital technology, to the classic tube-driven Hot Rod Deluxe, loved for its vintage-inspired sound. Each series typically includes models suited for practice, studio recording, and even live performance, ensuring guitarists have access to the right amp for their needs.

A standout feature of many Fender combo amps is their built-in effects and emulations. Digital models like the Mustang series allow musicians to tap into various effects, amp models, and pre-set configurations, making them incredibly versatile. This capability offers players the flexibility to experiment with sounds without needing a pedalboard full of gear. More traditional tube models often include simple gain, treble, and bass controls, allowing for straightforward tone shaping that emphasizes the player’s natural sound.

Another important characteristic is their robust construction. Fender combo amplifiers are designed to withstand the rigors of touring and gigging. Many models feature durable cabinets, high-quality speaker cones, and well-protected circuitry, ensuring reliability during performances.

Moreover, portabilty is a critical aspect of Fender combos. Their compact size and lighter weight compared to head-and-cabinet setups make them easy to transport. This is particularly beneficial for musicians who play gigs at multiple venues or need a reliable amp for practice sessions at home or in smaller settings.

In conclusion, Fender combo amplifiers blend classic tone and modern technology, making them versatile tools for musicians. With a variety of models available, each boasting unique features tailored to different playing styles, Fender ensures there’s a combo amplifier perfect for every guitarist’s needs. Whether you're a beginner looking for your first amp or a seasoned pro searching for your signature sound, Fender’s combo amps stand out as a top choice in the world of amplification.
