IMPERIAL MK II – Vintage American tone for modern players – Exclusive Truetone Music Edition
Tone King is proud to offer the Imperial MKII. From a spanky blackface-style voice to ‘50s-era tweed grit, you’ll find all of the most iconic American tube tones residing in this 1 x 12”, 20-watt combo. And with modern appointments, such as an onboard Ironman II power attenuator, and tube-driven effects, the Imperial MKII is the perfect old-school platform for modern players.
Here at Truetone Music, we like to offer exclusive gear through our partnerships with brands like Tone King. Sometimes it comes from a simple question of “what would be cool that no one else has done?” That’s how we came up with this one, as our own exclusive version of the Imperial. It features Black tolex with a Red Bronco Frame, Red Weave Grille Cloth, a Chrome Faceplate and Black Knobs. The end result is stunning, and we couldn’t be happier with how it came out. This is the first one like it, and we expect it to go quickly.
