About This Listing
The
Sky King is a 1 x 12” combo that sings with American tones of the 1950s
and 60s. This 35W hand-wired amp features Rhythm and Lead channels that
are voiced after the glassy elegance of the original blackface-style
design and the unmistakable warm bark of the tweed-covered titans. Give
the Lead channel’s Mid-Bite control a spin and you’ll discover tighter
sounds reminiscent of some equally iconic amps from across the pond. Add
in foot-switchable tremolo and a custom-voiced bias-modulated tremolo
circuit and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a more flexible amplifier
that accurately reproduces everything we love about the vintage American
tone of yesteryear.
The innovative back panel controls allow you to further enhance the amplifier’s inherent character. A mode switch selects between Pentode and Ultra-Linear performance on both channels. Pentode offers familiar clarity and transients, while Ultra-Linear allows the amp to sag and react to every note you play. This flagship amp boasts not one, but two of the incredibly popular Ironman II reactive power attenuators – one for the clean channel and one for the Lead channel. This unprecedented control allows you to dial in the perfect performance-to-volume balance, no matter the gig.
A lesson in American tone
Both foot-switchable channels boast a no-nonsense 3-knob control layout - but that’s where the similarities end. The Rhythm channel is carefully sculpted to sing with ‘60s era cleans and chime. The Lead channel, on the other hand, handles the harmonically rich midrange of ‘50s tweed amps and can be crafted into old-school, British-style Lead voices.
Rhythm channel controls: Volume, Bass, Treble
Lead channel controls: Volume, Tone, Mid-Bite
Mid-Bite control tightens the low end for added punch and cut
Changing character with the flip of a switch
The Sky King features a powerful Mode switch that swings the amp between Pentode and Ultra-Linear operations. Choose Pentode for the feel and clarity that is found in the majority of amps around the world. Flip over to Ultra-Linear mode to give the amplifier a warmer, rounder sound with plenty of elastic response to enhance your picking style.
Pentode mode offers a faster attack and more defined highs
Ultra-Linear mode delivers richer lower-order harmonics and a softer feel
Ultra-Linear mode reduces the amplifier’s gain and may need to be compensated with the preamp volume control
Ironman II reactive attenuation
The dual Ironman II power attenuators aboard the Sky King offer even more flexibility allowing maxed tube tones from gigging to home-friendly levels. Using our reactive load technology, your amp will sound and respond the same at any volume.
6-step attenuation adjusts the power from 35 watts down to around 1 watt
Reactive load technology maintains the feel and response of your guitar amplifier
Independent attenuation for Rhythm and Lead channels
Onboard spring reverb and tremolo
The tube-driven circuit and old-school controls of the spring reverb and bias-modulated tremolo found in the Sky King, gloriously re-create the thick, splashing and pulsating tones which defined the sound of vintage American-voiced combos for generations.
Bias modulation tremolo circuit delivers vintage-style pulse - foot-switchable
Tube-driven spring reverb with wide-ranging control
