I just want to say that this is the video that turned me into the Dual Tone. Before this, I had only heard of the Black Magick from Phil X and that was all I wanted. But I saw this video and decided that the Dual Tone was better for me, so I bought one about 5 years ago and it's just so good! I now also have a Vox, a Fender Bassbreaker 45, and multiple cabinets with different speakers to alter my tones. As much as I love those other two amps, everytime I go back and play the Supro I can tell that it is on another league compared to those two. It is more dynamic, and it sits better on a mix by far. It's the best amp I've ever had! Thanks for these videos Johan! They do help a lot!

Sonically very close, do you think the cabinet size and the 10" vs 12" speaker really accounts for the sonic difference? To me the dual tone sounds a bit more like The Rolling Stones while the Black Magick is a bit more Led Zeppelin. Am I the only one hearing that?

Dual Tone has the mojo. 6973 power tubes are so dynamic, clean crackle and when pushed break up so well, better than EL 84's. Supro did a smart thing by only having a tone control. The more knobs you have in the circuit, the tone suffers. Boutique amp very reasonably priced.

@Beizeiten788 жыл бұрын
gibbanz22 The Dual Tone has one extra perk, being able to use both tone controls and blending those in addition to the volumes. Both are excellent, and I've played both... A LOT. The Black Magick has more gain on tap, but the drawback is less clean volume available, but both cleanup beautifully with your guitar's volume. Personally, I have a Supro overdrive, a Wampler Tumnus, and an Analogman Beano Boost, so the additional gain isn't necessary for me on the Black Magick. I think, ideally, I'd put the Black Magick speaker in the Dual Tone cab.
@Vaughn68867 жыл бұрын
This was exactly my thought process. I went with the Dual Tone for the blending of tone and volume controls. I feel like the extra gain in the Black Magick is coming from celestion style speaker and possibly the different 12ax7's. (instead of the 12ax7eh in the dual tone) I think if you were to give the Dual Tone a speaker with quicker break up and gainier pre tubes, you'd prob have a Black Magick. :) I kept my DT stock...the frequencies that are heard on the open chords at 1:19 are what sold me :)

Yeah, this video reinforces something that's been holding me back on the Black Magick... it seems just a tad dark, or rather, a touch heavy in the low mids. Though I think it sounds great, in a band context I'm not sure it has the upper content to stand up bold and really cut. Honestly, every time I play one, I only find the tone useful above 65%. With the Dual Tone, I like running one tone really bright and the other about halfway. I'd be elated with either, but I'm about 60/40 in favor of the Dual Tone, which surprises me.

I've played both, but not side by side. I love both, but I'm torn. Do you feel having two tone controls available on the Dual Tone gets you a more complex sound with more versatility? In terms of gain, both a great, but the Black Magick is the winner. Also, I wasn't able to play them with the same guitar, but the Dual Tone seemed to have a little more background noise, which I think I heard here too. Is the Black Magick quieter, in terms of hum/hiss?
