TRUE DIMENSIONAL SOUND

SUPER FIFTEEN

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing your Magnatone Amp.

This amplier was designed in the rich tradition of
Magnatone to be the best your money could buy.
We are proud of our product and every detail has
been meticulously fashioned for the discerning user.

Whether you are a touring professional, basement

jammer or anywhere in between, we take your
sound and need for the best amplier seriously.

The Super Fifteen amplier is designed to give you
a portable and powerful amplier in a unique and authentic
package. The original Magnatone Vibrato circuit is nestled
between the nest Pre-Amp & Power Amp ever before
available in any amp.

The amp begins with 12AX7 front end coupled with an
EL84 power section, master volume, and tube rectication.
This conguration delivers full bodied clean tones and
natural overdrive, all while letting you dial in the “chime.”
The vibrato has been integrated into the gain path,
and the master volume delivers a classic British crunch
at any volume.

The Super Fifteen has plenty of muscle to gig with and
performs with a range of tone never thought possible.
The exclusive Magnatone pitch-shifting vibrato
elevates your musical experience to new levels.
