SPEAKER
The Comet provides one 8 Ohm and two 4 Ohm speaker outputs. When using a single 8 Ohm speaker,
such as the internal speaker, connect the speaker or cabinet to the 8 Ohm jack. If using two 8 Ohm
speakers or cabinets, plug them both into the 4 Ohm jacks. (The logic here is that two 8 Ohm loads
connected in parallel add up to a 4 Ohm total load.)
When using the internal speaker with an
extension cabinet, be sure to move the internal speaker to one of the 4 ohm outputs

TREMOLO/REVERB FTSW
Allows remote shutoff of the tremolo and reverb effects via latching footswitch, using a

cable. You can also use a Single Footswitch with a
1

TS cable to control either the reverb or
the tremolo. With the cable pushed in all the way, the footswitch will allow remote shutoff of the
Reverb only and the Tremolo will ALWAYS be Off. With the cable pushed in half way, the Reverb will
ALWAYS be On and the footswitch will allow remote shutoff of the Tremolo only.
IEC POWER CORD RECEPTACLE / Fuse holder
The power cord connects here and to your country’s appropriate wall outlet. Make sure to connect
the male end of the IEC POWER CORD into a Grounded Power Outlet. This IEC connector contains
the AC Mains fuse. This is a 5x20mm, 2.5A, 250V Fuse.

Setting Tones
The preamp found in your Supro Comet is designed to provide a variety of sounds from clean to mean
and everything between. Begin by setting the volume knob to 9:00. A good starting point is to set
TONE and VERB controls to 12:00. Adjust the TONE control accordingly to dial in the desired tone.
The spring reverb effect has been voiced to surround the player’s notes without making the player’s
tone sound muddy. The VERB control gives the player a wide range of sounds from subtle to huge
and cavernous. Adjust this control to taste.
