The Fender Super Amp is one of the most iconic and influential amplifiers of the 1950s — a cornerstone of Leo Fender’s early lineup and a favourite among blues, country, and rock 'n' roll players. This beautiful example, serial number 6026, dates to 1954 and features the rare and highly sought-after 5C4 circuit — a transitional design prized for its lush harmonic texture, warm compression, and raw musicality.
The 5C4 sits between the earlier 5B4 and the more modern 5D4, featuring a cathode-biased dual 6L6 power section and split-phase inverter. This results in a beautifully touch-sensitive amp with about 25 watts of power, offering the perfect blend of dynamic headroom and early breakup. It’s the very essence of tweed tone — rich mids, articulate highs, and creamy overdrive when pushed. The two channels (Instrument and Microphone) each have two inputs, giving you four in total, plus a single tone control shared across both — simple, effective, and sonically wide-ranging.
The tweed covering is in fantastic shape, showing only light signs of age and wear. The grille cloth may have been replaced at some point, but remains era-appropriate and clean. Internally, this amp retains its original Jensen P10Q speakers, which have been professionally re-coned — preserving the soul of the amp while ensuring reliable performance. Under the hood, it has had a routine service with replacement filter capacitors installed — a necessary update that ensures tone stability without compromising its vintage character.
The 'DC' marking on the tube chart confirms its early 1954 production, and it runs on US 110V power. To top it off, this amp comes with its schematic sheet — a desirable inclusion for collectors and tone nerds alike.
Whether you're chasing the tones of early Clapton, Freddie King, or the golden age of American electric blues, this Super sounds just like the records — lively, dynamic, and full of life. A truly inspiring amp for stage, studio, or serious collection.
