Could you give us some more detail - I've had my eye on one of these for a while...

You can vary just about everything to pull out a multitude of great sounds.

You ca dial up many clean tones to many various levels of crunch. It’s very easy to find sweet spots that sound like many well known recordings. The Blues King name fits this amp very well. It does NOT disappoint. !!!!!!!!

Every aspect of this amp sounds great... from the built in reverb to the eq, to the gain and boost switches, everything is very responsive.

What I mean by that is some amps have knobs that don’t do much, not the case with this amp.

regarding finances...New these amps are selling for $599 plus tax and shipping if applicable. I found mine used for $399 plus taxes and shipping, so $462 total. That was a pretty reasonable price to get into a Supra, as most models are much more expensive. I would recommend this amp for anyone doing smaller venues or home studios. It's easily portable, doesn't weigh a ton, and sounds great. It can always be miked into a larger PA system, or use the line out. I bought mine to do recording in my home studio. If I were playing out at medium sized venues then I'd look at a different Supra model.

I have a very close friend who fronts a blues band with him on vocals and slide guitar. He plays rhythm and all of the slide guitar. He LOVES his Blues King. He specifically pointed out how good the overdrive sound in it is. He said he dumped his pedals ever since he got his.
