Packing that legendary 1960s Black Panel amp character into a streamlined, pedalboard-friendly footprint, the Mad Professor Super Black Mini brings pure vintage tone to a smaller stage. Featuring a fully analog circuit that faithfully maps out the entire signal path of a classic tube amplifier, it delivers true amp-like touch response.
Compared to the original mid-sized unit, the Mini is built with a few vital updates:
- Streamlined Footprint: The secondary Sweet Honey Overdrive section found on the original has been removed, resulting in a much smaller enclosure that saves precious board real estate.
- Retained Core Preamp Control: Despite its smaller size, it keeps all eight essential tone-shaping controls intact, including Bass, Middle, Treble, Gain, Volume, Presence, plus the Bass Cut and Compression toggle switches.
- Enhanced Headroom: Redesigned with increased headroom and a higher output level, the Mini lets those signature sparkly, percussive cleans and punchy dynamics cut through with extra authority.
Whether you want pristine glass-like chime at lower gain settings or the glorious, organic breakup of a cranked tube amp without shaking the room, the Super Black Mini handles it all. Run it directly in front of your amplifier as a powerful tone shaper, or drop it straight into an FX loop return or cabinet IR loader to use it as a standalone preamp for recording and silent rig setups.
