This is listed on ebay as a Fender Supersonic 22 22 Watt amp.

This is the only SS22 I've seen with the Salt & Pepper grill cloth and I'm thinking this has to be an SS60. Am I wrong?

Thanks in advance.

The 6L6 output bottles suggest that it's a 60-watt Supersonic.

You can get the same thing used from Guitar Center for $850.00. http://www.guitarcenter.com/In-Store-Us ... 3177704.gc

I'm pretty sure it is a 60.

I couldn't tell if those were 6L6s or 6V6s.

Thanks,

The price is nuts. I've seen others on ebay for half that. I was just curious if it was actually an SS22. Pretty sure it's not.

Considering the price and the inaccurate description I would not go near that seller.

Cheers,

Indeed.

He seems totally clueless.

Speaker output says 60 watts and total input power is 180 watts , can't be a 22 watts .
