Tone King Amps Metropolitan 1×12 combo
Incredible sounding and highly versatile tube guitar amplifier!
From Fender Tweed and Blackface through Marshall-esque, Brown sounding Overdrive, the Metropolitan can do it all!
Separate output power scaling controls for each channel deliver great tone at any volume
This is by far one of the most remarkable and stunningly diverse sounding amps we have ever come across. Virtually every style of music (ok…maybe not Swahili death metal)can be achieved with this incredibly shapeable amp. Every possible consideration of quality has been thought of in the building of this amp,even in so far as designing their own custom components such as speakers and transformers.
One of the most amazing aspects of the Metropolitan is the Phase 4 power control system. This feature allows one the ability to achieve the true sound and feel of an amp cranked up and driven into natural overdrive and power tube crunch, at any volume – even “bedroom” volume – by providing a usuable output power range of 0.1W – 40W.
The Metropolitan’s newly-designed Rhythm channel provides an even wider variety of great clean tones, from the more “mid-scooped” sound of the original Tone King rhythm channel, to a range of new tones with an additional measure of midrange girth and chime.
The Lead channel draws heavily from the designs of past Tone King models, but is infinitely more useful, because it can now be used to dial in anything from fat, greasy tweed overdrive to the kerrang of crunchy early-Marshall power chords, at any volume level. PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A NEW PARADIGM OF TONE….YOU CAN NOT RESIST..(EVIL LAUGH ENSUES).
