Fuchs Overdrive Supreme 50 50-watt head



Oof. What a killer amp this Fuchs Overdrive Supreme 50 50-watt head is. This one appears to be from the mid 2000s or so - a little different from the ODS Classic and ODS-II in its layout, but all of the tonal controls and features are pretty close. This thing is a gain tweaker's dream - the clean channel preamp essentially feeds into the gain channel (which then has two gain stages/controls) allowing for some crazy flexibility in overdrive tones. Not to mention, the clean channel sounds great on its own, too. Oh AND the Reverb is great. AND the effects loop - run it series or parallel, it goes on and on. Just a fantastic amp all around, built right/tight from a highly respected builder. The glass all seems to be good, but do note - these are the original tubes that the last owner installed. We do not guarantee tube life beyond the first initial fire-up.

Sold as-is, as described - no returns. 

Here's what Fuchs has to say:

OVERDRIVE SUPREME

Enjoying over ten years of production, the Overdrive Supreme® received glowing reviews in BOTH domestic and foreign publications.Reviews in Japan's "Guitar Magazine" as well as Guitar Player Magazine (February 2005). The Overdrive Supreme® was available in power ranges from 20 through 150 watts. Available in heads or 112, 210 or 212 combos. The ODs featured a full time effects loop which could handle both line and pedal level signals. It could be run in series or parallel modes, and remained live, whether used as a line out (to drive a mixer or sound system) or a line in (for guitar synth, keyboard, drum machine, etc.). A spacious Accutronics 3-spring long decay reverb pan was used for a natural warm, yet detailed reverb.
