Has anyone bought,and used any of these 3 amps for lead guitar?Super-Sonic,which is one of the newest of the Fender line,the Deluxe Reverb re-issue,and the Pro-Reverb. I think the Pro-Reverb has been discontinued, but Sam Ash still has one on the floor for sale.
What's the pros,and cons on these,and your likes,and dis-likes.

Out of all of them I like the Supersonic the best - but only for really loud outdoor gigs.

The others are "reissues" in name only and just don't have the same tone as orginals. It's also MUCH easier to service a vintage eyelet amp than new PCB board amps

Jim, I've heard that the re-issue amps have circuit boards,instead of point-to-point wiring. That makes me wonder why they call them re-issues. Confused
