Description
- 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.
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.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.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.Features
