Demo: Tone King Falcon Grande 20w Tube Amp


I've searched long and hard for an amp to demo equipment in the shop and record with. There were features I really wanted -- long true spring reverb, an attenuator to step-down volume, low overall wattage, a '50s and early '60s tonal palette, all tube, lightweight, 12" speaker, and lower than 30w power. This is basically the only amp with all of that, and I'm super-glad I took the plunge on this fancy rig. Plus -- it's surf green and white and looks like a tee-vee. I'm smitten.

This is just a quick demo that covers the three "channels" of color on the amp -- rhythm, tweed, and lead -- with reverb turned on after each section. This is just to give you an idea. If you crank the volume you can get some seriously-dirty sounds, too, for those delicious radial airplane engine sounds.
