The Royale was designed to deliver loud and vivid clean tone with a remarkably responsive, tactile low end. A high-headroom, 50W tube amplifier with a powerful EQ, footswitchable boost, tube-buffered effects loop and glorious tube-driven spring reverb, the Royale captures all of the nuances in your playing, both on stage and in studio. The 5881-loaded power amp in the Royale offers a choice of Class A (35W) or Class AB (50W) operation, as well as a master volume to control sound pressure level. Class A mode delivers the traditional, cathode-biased Supro sound with a bold, spongy midrange. Class AB delivers a grid-biased California sound with more scooped mid-range, tighter bass and faster transient response. Housed in poplar cabinetry with vintage-inspired Black Scandia tolex and a hemp grille cloth, the Royale is Supro's most dynamically responsive, feature-packed, high-headroom amplifier to date. Features the custom Supro BD12 speakers.
Our custom, high-power 12-inch BD12 speakers—also found on our Black Magick Reverb—feature oversized ceramic magnets, top of the line suspension and a special British cone, resulting in rich, full articulation.
Designed to be the first Supro combos that promises massive headroom, the Royales allow for everything from huge clean tones to super-saturated warmth, courtesy of their Class A to Class AB switch. Toggle between tight, punchy clean response and the midrange hearth that Supro is known for with the flick of a switch.
The Royales features a footswitchable Boost, FX Loop, and Reverb, offering the player maximum control over the versatility of the amp. You’ve got level control on the Boost, level and dwell control on the Reverb, and the FX Loop is tube-buffered. Because we care about you.
Upon joining product development forces with brand partners D’Angelico Guitars, we wanted to design an amp that suits today’s genre-bending performing artists—something that promises the utmost quality of tone and a wild range of versatility. We exceeded our highest expectations.
