TONE KING SKY KING

DominicDominic Frets: 16251
in Amps £
£1,550

"The best combo real-world money can buy"

See Guitar Paradiso review where Mick and Pete extol it's virtues.

35 watt - fully hand wired.  

2 channels foot-switchable.

Iron Man attenuator on BOTH channels.  

Superb 1950's style valve driven BIAS TREM.

They say .... Blackface Clean / Tweed Drive.  

I say .... More AC 30 Clean / Very Tweed Drive.

Mid-bite knob is a superb feature and quite unique for colouring the sound on the drive channel which can adapt perfectly for single coils or HBs.

Clean channel is superbly thick for Strat or Tele and takes away any nasty 'ice-pick' harshness.  

Big enough for any gig - quiet enough for a bedsit.

Mint condition with bespoke cover.

Hertfordshire/North London based.


Tone King Amps no longer manufacture, making these quite rare.  The final sales prices of these last year were just under £3,000 when the last Sky Kings were sold new.

    Yes,it's like the big brother of the Imperial 2 - but more versatile
    surprisingly light due to their " acoustically tuned cab ".....which is great

    Congratulations - that was a swift turnaround by most standards!
