About This Listing

Here is your chance to own a legendary and rare Supro amplifier. The Vibra Verb offers an amazing range of tones. Two channels both have bass and treble inputs. The bass in put is creamy and the treble input has plenty of spank. This would make a fantastic recording amplifier because of the versatility and tonefulness at all volumes. You can get it to break up and give you that classic rock Zeppelin sound but it is equally at home with sparkly country licks. It will do everything a Thunderbolt can do, and more. Plus, it has the added appeal of collectability.

The Vibra Verb has to be the rarest Supro amplifier, probably because it was the most expensive model. Most people bought the cheaper ones. It's the only Supro I've seen with the big chrome handle on top. The Vibra Verb was available in two versions, the more common version with twin 12" speakers and this rarer type with the mismatched speakers. Dave Hunter wrote an article about this amp.

The previous owner had some maintenance work done to the amp back in the 1980's. You can see that it now has a 3 prong cord. Some filter caps were replaced and some tubes were replaced at that time, although some of the originals remain. The speakers are the original Jensens. Grill cloth & tolex are original and in good shape with just some staining and wear. There are a few extra small holes in the cab, Maybe there were some casters attached at one point. You'll never see them since they're on the bottom/inside.

I have fully tested the amplifier and all the channels and inputs are working well. There is very little extraneous noise. The reverb works and has a unique sound that adds "sparkle" and the tremelo is strong and deep. You should be able to just plug it in and enjoy the many tones you can get from it.
