He tests and retests countless wood, component and configuration combinations until he hears sound worthy of the name Tone King. Off the shelf parts? Not a chance! He works with good ole USA based manufacturers to develop custom components that meet his demanding requirements for his amplifiers. Be it the Imperial, Metropolitan, or his newest guitar amp, the Galaxy, Tone King Amps are hard to beat!
Tone King's all new 12W, 1x10 Falcon channels the simplicity and grease fired glory of pure old-school tweed tone. The unique and all new single channel 3-knob preamp (vol, tone, voicing) has three distinct but overlapping voicings - blackface, dead-nuts tweed, and tight 70's hard rock crunch. Its' 2x6V6, cathode biased, zero-feedback, ultralinear output stage gives the Falcon a totally old school vibe - spanky, twangin' cleans and overdrive so chunky, thick, and fat that you can practically smell the bacon frying. A genuine built-in Ironman precision attenuator guarantees that you'll get the same grease-fired tones at any volume level, down to true bedroom level. | The Tone King Metropolitan is available in both head and combo configurations. At 40 watts it is an ideal platform for a guitar player seeking the perfect mix of power and size. This amp features a great American style clean channel and an incredibly versatile drive channel. What even further sets this amp apart from many other amplifiers is its revolutionary power control, allowing the Mertropolitan to be dialed all the way down to 0.1 watts while still maintaining the integrity of the tone. This guitar amp is a masterpiece of amplification, and one of the best amps we have for sale! |
The Tone King Imperial Amp is a 20 watt all-tube guitar amplifier built to recreate the Fender Deluxe vibe, and takes it a bit further. This 6V6 driven vintage voiced combo is divided into two channels. The clean (rhythm) side is round and shimmery, while the lead allows the amp to be pushed into a nice cranked blackface crunch. The tremolo circuit is a true bias vary design, which yields a much smoother more musical response than more modern designs. The tube driven reverb in this amp uses a full size two spring pan to produce all the space and tone you would expect from a vintage amplifier. | The Tone King Galaxy 60 watt head and cab is somewhat similar to the Imperial, but at 3 times the wattage it yields a tremendous amount of clean headroom. The Galaxy amplifier features two vintage voiced channels. The clean side is shimmery even up into stage volumes, while the lead channel allows a guitar player to bring out a little more midrange grind in the amp. True bias vary tremolo and tube driven reverb add even more flexibility. Available for sale in three colors, and all are in stock. |
