About This Listing
No other pedal sounds more like a real Supro amp than the Supro Drive. This groundbreaking analog pedal re-creates the circuitry of a Supro amp, from end to end, including an actual output transformer. As the Supro sound has gained widespread popular recognition as a pillar of classic rock guitar tone, numerous amp and pedal companies claim to have captured our coveted sound by cloning the original Supro preamp, in stompbox format. They all got it wrong! The real tone of a genuine Supro amp has everything to do with the unique phase inverter design, Class A power amp section and the magnetic saturation that occurs via the old-school transformers found in these vintage tone machines. In short, the iconic sound of a Supro amp being pushed into overdrive has everything to do with the POWER AMP.
- Emulates a Class-A Supro amp from end to end.
- Achieves magnetic saturation via output transformer
- Switchable RICH or BOLD transformer windings selection
- Expression pedal control for GAIN
- Power 9V – 18V, 2.1mm Neg. Tip
- Current Draw < 20mA
- Battery 9V, Included
- Chassis (in.) 3.2″ x 3.2″ x 4.9″
- Weight (lbs) 1.1 lbs
Harnessing the expertise we’ve developed through re-imagining and successfully manufacturing the 1960’s Supro tube amplifier lineup, Supro USA has captured the legendary magic of a Supro tube amp by completely re-thinking our approach to stompbox design. Rather than approximating the sound of our amps using standard techniques, engineer Thomas Elliot created an all-new circuit which mimics every aspect of the Supro tube amp. This unique approach yields the most realistic-sounding overdrive pedal ever made, with greater range of gain, dynamics and natural compression than the Tube Screamer, Klon or any of their many derivatives. The Supro Drive is an original, landmark design that raises the bar for overdrive pedals.
The Supro Drive pedal sports a simple control layout with Volume, Gain and Tone knobs as well as a toggle switch to select between the different windings of our custom, multi-tapped output transformer—either for high-headroom BOLD sounds, or more compressed, high-gain RICH tones. Taking the overdrive pedal platform one step further, the Supro Drive offers a TRS port for expression pedal control of the GAIN knob. With the expression pedal in use, the on-board GAIN knob sets the maximum value, while a user-adjustable, internal trimmer sets the minimum gain setting. All Supro pedals are assembled in Port Jefferson, NY, USA, featuring custom-tooled, anodized, brushed-aluminum enclosures, 9V battery or DC powered operation, rear-mounted metal jacks, easy-access side-mounted battery drawer and studio-friendly, noiseless (click-free) true-bypass switching.

Product Overview
Need a boost? Let the Supro Boost give you a lift. This clean boost from Supro has a JFET base was designed to push the front end of your tube amp, but it doesn’t matter what you plug into; the Supro Boost will give you up to 20dB of clean gain regardless. But with the Boost, you don’t just get gain -- you get sonic contouring as well. Along with the oversized volume knob, the Boost sports a three-way toggle switch that gives you the chance to brighten up your sound, give it a darker vibe, or leave it flat with its switchable high- and low-pass filters. And for even more tweakability, the Supro Boost gives you an expression jack for the volume control, just in case you needed even more versatility.
