Tone King Sky King 1x12" £1400

What's Hot
BlaendulaisBlaendulais Frets: 3325

2018 Immaculate never gigged

Footswitch

 Two channels delivering superb blackface and tweed vintage tones.

Loaded with a pair of Tone King Ironman II power attenuators you can enjoy those majestic tube driven tones at any volume. The 6-Step attenuation maintains the feel and response meaning you don't compromise on tone to attain lower volume performance.

Bias modulation tremolo circuit and a tube driven spring reverb.

I have no box so collection from London only

    If this is a Bartel era one, that's an absolute bargain.

    My head said brake, but my heart cried never.

    The last Bartel SK amps were made in 2016 I believe, though someone with more experience may know better.

    I don’t think there’s any evidence that Bartel era Tone King amps are worth any more than the current ones. Yours looks a great amp and it’s a decent price whatever era it’s from, GLWTS.

    Apologies, didn’t mean to derail.  Sonically I believe they’re pretty much identical.  Best clean platform I’ve ever heard :)

    Check out Psionic Audio's videos on Sky Kings. It would appear there are some revisions that might be best avoided due to design issues in the boards. 
    Old, overweight and badly maintained. Unlike my amps which are just old and overweight.

    @snowblind thats a very unhelpful comment I would stress that there are no issues with this amp whatsoever!!!

    Why would you post that??

    Apologies. I don't mean to jinx your sale and I am not suggesting your amp is one of the ones affected. It is just for awareness. If I'm planning to shell out a 4-figure sum on an item I'd want to know as much about said item as possible. 
    It should be added that Tone King went above and beyond to help rectify the problems found and learned from the information to improve the product. They care about their reputation and any prospective owner can take comfort in that fact.
    Your asking price is very attractive and I can't see anyone who really wants a Sky King blowing out the idea of buying it on account of two TY videos.

    Do you have a source for this? I find Psionic’s videos very informative/helpful, so it would be a shame if that were true. 

    Also a lovely looking amp @Blaendulais and a good price too by the looks of it. GLWTS

    Think it can be found on TGP where there are long threads on this, but up to your judgment as to what actually went down...

    Hijacking a sales post like this should be dealt with by mod's.
