Supro Royale Combo 2X12

Royale: Supro's Most Complete and High-Performance Combo in the Range

Designed to deliver a clear, powerful, and ultra-dynamic tone, the Supro Royale 2x12 stands out as a flagship model focused on "big sound": large headroom, sharp attacks, and a true physical sensation in the low end. Its circuit features a power section based on 5881 tubes and a high-efficiency design, intended to reveal playing nuances both in recording and live situations.

For Which Guitarists and Contexts?

The Royale 2x12 is aimed at intermediate to professional guitarists who want a tube combo capable of handling the stage, loud rehearsals, and demanding studio sessions. It excels when looking for a ample, articulate clean tone, an ideal foundation for pedals (overdrive, fuzz, modulation), and sounds ranging from blues to rock, including pop, americana, and more "vintage" styles that require depth and presence.

Two Power Modes, Strong EQ, Boost, Effects Loop, and Tube Reverb

The heart of the Royale is its switchable power amp : in Class A (35 W), it offers a softer response, denser mids, and very musical natural compression; in Class AB (50 W), the amp gains firmness, with tighter bass and a more immediate attack. On the control side, the Treble / Mid / Bass EQ allows precise sculpting of the spectrum, while the Volume + Master duo facilitates balancing preamp saturation, dynamics, and final level. The Boost adds an extra edge to cut through the mix, and the spring reverb (with Level and Dwell controls) covers everything from tight small-room ambiance to deeper surf-style reverb. The tube FX loop is ideal for placing additional delays and reverbs after distortion, preserving clarity and definition.

The Sound

Fully tube-driven, the Royale 2x12 delivers a lively sound, highly responsive to touch, with a "tactile" bass foundation and great projection thanks to the 2x12 format. In clean mode, it remains full and detailed, perfect for open chords and bright rhythm parts. Increasing the Volume and using the Boost yields a rich crunch, with a gradual transition to thicker saturation while maintaining excellent clarity. The Class A / Class AB switch acts as a true "character switch": rounder and spongier on one side, tighter and more incisive on the other, allowing the amp to adapt to style, venue, and guitar (single coils or humbuckers).
