Tone King di Baltimore, USA, è un produttore di amplificatori valvolari vintage fondato nel 1993 da Mark Bartel. Tra i modelli più apprezzati ci sono gli heads e i combo delle serie Imperial e Gremlin. Oltre agli amplificatori di alta qualità, Tone King è particolarmente noto per il molto lodato Ironman Attenuator, che mantiene in modo estremamente fedele la caratteristica sonora dell'amplificatore anche a potenze ridotte.

Amp gives a very high quality impression, seems very well made. Every little detail has something about it that feels polished. Nothing negative at all to say about this. It's on a level where I even enjoy just looking at it. Feature and sound-wise this amp has all I really need. Everyone can read the Blackface/Tweed/early-Marshall descriptions from Tone King and various reviews so I won't go into that. Personally I think it sounds as described, but it will reward experimentation with all the settings and the plentiful variations they offer. It really makes the differences in my guitars come out. The character of each guitar has a significant impact on what I get out of the amp and how it responds to different settings. After some weeks of use I still find new sounds and dynamics depending on settings and gear combinations. It's a great amp in general but this "musical" behavior is what has me hooked. Bought new late 2021. Came with Sovtek output (6L6WGC) and rectifier tubes, the 12AX7 are from Electro Harmonix, the reverb driver (12AT7) I couldn't identify just looking. Speaker has a sticker on the side with "Celestion Vintage 30" printed on it which correlates with the serial number (not sure if there are any mods to the specs specifically for Tone King). Should point out that I use the built-in attenuators to balance the relative volume between the channels (great feature!) and then I attenuate the actual output with a PS-100. So I haven't put much thought into how well the built-in attenuators work on higher attenuation but given the little I've used them I also don't have any complaints at all.
