![]() In fact you can read on the Tone King website that the rhythm channel aims for that Fender black-face sound. In fact it reminds me a lot of a black-face Fender Deluxe amp, which also has a similar layout and one 12″ speaker. The two channel make use of 12AX7 pre-amp tube, and one 12AT7 driving the reverb, just like Fender amps from the sixties or seventies. The output power is about 20 watts, coming from two 6V6 tubes. The Imperial is a two-channel combo with reverb and tremolo. Mark does all the woodworking, upholstery, and electronics assembly himself to have total control about the sound and quality of his products. Tone King amps are built from selected quality parts by Mark Bartel in Baltimore. Knopfler’s second guitarist Richard Bennet also plays one. Everyone who has seen Mark Knopfler live on one of his recent tours might have notived that cool-looking turquoise combo amp next to Knopfler’s Marshall cabinets.
