Beskrivning
The Super Black is based on the world-famous Fender Blackface amps (1963-1968) in one compact pedal.
The punchy, mid scooped and crystal-clear clean of the Blackface is matched by replicating the entire signal path in the pedal. It’s definitely worth putting this pedal in the FX return of your amp, replacing the preamp for the full sound of the Super Black.
By adjusting the gain and volume, you can experience the break-up of the Fender Blackface at any volume. Because several Blackface amps of different sizes were tested in which there were differences in the amount of bass and compression, Mad Professor added two switch options including bass cut and compression to the Super Black. The tone you are looking for from a Blackface amp can therefore be found no matter the model.
To extend the possibilities with the Super Black the ideal overdrive combination has also been combined in the pedal. Namely the Sweet Honey Overdrive. The match with a Blackface amp is so satisfying that the Sweet Honey Overdrive couldn’t be missed on the Super Black.
A great history, finetuned into a pedal with matching overdrive and possibilities for full tweaking to your liking. That’s what the Mad Professor Super Black has to offer.
