The Korena take

Tone King’s Imperial MkII Head puts its two-channel tube platform into a 20W head format for players who want to pair it with their own speakers and cabinets. The Blackface-style Rhythm channel and tweed-like Lead channel cover its core voices, with Mid-Bite on the Lead channel. Ironman II reactive attenuation provides six settings for taking the amp from gig to bedroom levels, while tube-driven spring reverb and bias-modulated tremolo remain onboard.
