Today Mick and Pete compares the Tone King Falcon Grande and the Imperial MkII

Pete plays a Duesenberg Starplayer TV, a Fender Postmodern Journeyman strat and a Gibson Les Paul.
Mick is playing a Fender Postmodern Journeyman telecaster and the same Les Paul.

These two little amps got some of the finest clean sounds I've gotten to hear, and very nice sounding drive too. I can actually see that doing that even rather high gain stuff. AND an attenuetor that actually works like it's meant to. Judging from the video, these are just brilliant.
I really miss these sessions with Mick and Pete. I used to fast forward through the gear talk just to hear them play. RIP Guitar Paradiso. I still have That Pedal Show.
I haven't been following this channel closely, so was just wondering, what happened to this show? Why did they stop making it?
Sorry, good demo but I really struggled to hear the amps over Mick's shirt
WHAT?
That’s what all the Hawaiians wear.
Just put an attenuator on his shirt. ;)
@@GregStraub42 As in its "loud" which is a phrase that describes when something is very noticeable.
That jam was so inviting I walked away from my computer and picked up my guitar. Doesn't get better than that. Thanks.
I did the same. No better compliment.
northof50now haha me too.
Beauty brings beauty. Joy brings joy.
Man I am in love with that tele!
Anyone else keep replaying that tasty jam at the start? I've listened to it about 10 times now... I had to go and grab my guitar and jam along. You guys are becoming my favourite musicians.
I'm starting to judge amps by the tone King standard
I have a grande. It’s changed what I play and I really love it.
It's always great to see one musician taking joy in another's playing...
I seriously never heard a bad Tone King amp. They all sound so sweet and amazing. Not really my style, but those amps just sing.
Yeah, no matter how you turn the knobs they sound amazing
thanks. they sound amazing. will buy one pretty soon.
It'd be sick if we could get some lessons from Pete! Or Mick! Or both! Great players!
I have the Falcon Grande, it has a serious amount of variation in tones. It takes a bit of time to bed down with it but its like having 3 separate amps. Use both the High and Low - they do change the character.
Great demo! I upgraded my Imperial MKII with Celestion Ruby alnico speaker. Amazing results: pure vintage sounds and a bit shimmered high end - just perfect!!! Pushed with Revival Compact drive I can get all the sounds I always had in my head. Yes its expensive , but inspires me to play/practice everyday - no matter what! Great value for me!!
im looking to get this...does it beat a great fender princeton or delux?? thanks
I could actually listen to these two playing all day. Keep up the brilliant reviews guys!
That opening Jam! WOW
The Imperial, is litterally heaven. My absolute favorite sounding 1x12 clean amp.
I have one of the Mk II and it's amazing clean or screaming on the lead channel. I leave mine on the lead channel with it at 10 and control the sound from the guitar's volume. It'll go from very clean and clear to singing. I swapped the tubes to some good vintage tubes and it sounds even better. My amp tech says it's his favorite amp and recommends Tone King to everyone wanting a boutique amp because of this amp.
@@8sigreg What tubes did you put in? I upgraded speaker in my Imperial MKII to alnico Celestion Ruby. Amazing vintage sound, with rounder high end!! Awesome amp!!
8sigreg how would you put this amp side to side with a deluxe reverb? What are the big differences’ you’ll notice? Thanks
Staggeringly beautiful intro jam. Good lads.
What a great demo! That amp really warms it's name. Not just an amp, it's a great tube amp + attenuator + reverb + tremolo + Fender + Marshall.
I don't even want to know how much 2K pounds are but it'd way more than I'll ever have to Shell out on an amp.
Outdo as well!
That intro gave me goose bumps. Just beautiful.
I've had two Tone King amps: an Imperial MKII and a Falcon Grande. I eliminated both of them from my collection. Though they have some great tones and the Iron Man II attenuator is terrific, I experienced quality problems that are unacceptable in an amp in the $2,000 price range, among them: the Treble control on the Imperial stopped working when the amp was about 6 months old, and the Falcon Grande had an awful rattle (speaker or cabinet, not sure which) when playing the low E string at any volume higher than about 4 (this when the amp was brand new, right out of the box). Also, I had purchased these amps in pursuit of something with a lot of clean headroom. In my experience, and contrary to conventional wisdom on Tone Kings, neither of these amps came anywhere close to filling that space: they both started into a natural tube breakup anywhere north of about 3 on the volume control (and this with a Telecaster and a Stratocaster). A beautiful natural overdriven tone, to be sure, but that certainly didn't match the marketing on these amps and was not what I was seeking.
Plugging it on lead channel always would result in this only.
Mr Alan; What have you found that gives the clean headroom you wanted? Asking because I'm looking for the same thing.
@@dickranmarsupial4911 if you like the imperial and just want more headroom, I’d give the tone king Sky King a look
Good to see your moving on from Chapman demos. He was getting old.
Too right
great having two guys present who aren't tragic pricks
Gents, as beautiful playing as ever. I'm still waiting for the album to be released.
I'm of the opinion that Danish Pete is the best guitarist I've ever heard
+Rhod Williams it's because of the Crocs. Buy a pair & you'll become just as good ;)
+Andertons Music Co what do a pair of crocs and getting a BJ from a man have in common? They both feel great till you look down and realise its gay....
+loquayrocks Just don't look down;). And, if it makes you play the Danish Pete surely it's a win win situation? ;).
totally agree
u havent hear shit then
Just beautiful tones from these two as usual. I wonder what rig would make them sound pants. Once again Andertons has increased my "one day when I have the cash" list of must buys
Why would you want to make "sound pants" for your amp???
Genius. Thank you. The dusenberg and the imperial are a match made in heaven.
Damn I love these guys! Great humor and AWESOME playing. Keep up the good work.
Great amps, I just got the mk 2, amazing sounds. Tone King amps are on a whole 'nuthu' level
After watching this video and a few others, I am now the proud owner of a Falcon Grande. This video and the one featuring the PRS S-2 Vella. Currently I have the Falcon Grande paired with a Fender Princeton Reverb or a Deluxe Reverb.
If I lived in the UK I would have gladly made my way to Andertons, but alas if I'm lucky, I may see you guys at Summer NAMM 2019.
I would LOVE to hear some more of that opening tune. I know it was just a jam... but that was a beautiful piece of music.
Those dusenburgs are lovely.
I have that exact one. It is amazing!
There really should be a video compilation of their jams. I'd have it on repeat. Forever.
make an "andertons employees and friends" album!! it will be epicccc:)
These guys should do more reviews. This is the best amp review I've ever seen !
Every tube amp should come with an attenuator built in or come shipped with one. Thank you Tone King and Orange.
Awesome work guys. Great playing and review of these two amazing amps.
Great playing from both of you and an intelligent, thoughtful review. Great stuff.
Magical playing as always lads
Both of you have such great vibrato, always timed to what you are playing. The gears good too...
the falcon grande kept reminding me of a TV we used to have back in the day
I've been looking at milkman amps for a while, but the imperial seems to have so many more useful features, like the 2 channels and attenuator. It's almost as if you'd have to A/B two different milkman amps to get the same range of tones as the imperial
Great demo and Jam, brilliant. Mark Knopfler can use anything and he uses Tone King, says it all really.
I agree with "the hank rots project"Would love pete to give a lesson on his use of dyads and position movement!
Pete is FULL BLOWN DI CAPRIO in this one... It's the Wolf Of Toneking.
Both amps are rated at 20 watts...but at the end of the video there were comments to the effect that the Imperial Mk II has more clean headroom. What would account for that?
Such lovely playing guys !
They both sound amazing! I'm in the market for something new and I've been considering the Imperial, using the clean sound, an overdriven rhythm and a pedal or two in front for leads.
When you do a fair number of function gigs and you need to get a variety of sounds you need something versatile with a good clean sound. I get the impression from what Mick & Pete were saying at the end that this wouldn't be the best amp for that? Ie that putting pedals in front of it wouldn't be the best use for it?
That was the falcon they were talkin about as it doesn't have as much headroom
i always love the jams! Great playing
Tone so good it stops time. According to the clock that is
God I love these amps!
Time for an Anderton's "backing track" playlist. Guaranteed to give you and additional 50k subs in short order. But, rather than simply providing the tracking, detail the equipment, key, chord progression and strumming pattern...then let 'r rip.
These are awesome amps. The attenuator is great. But In Australia they are close to $4000 if you can actually find one. I think we have 3 for sale in the entire country. $40000!!! Twice the price of say a similar fender amp. You can buy two really good different amps for that.
Yeah but the fenders have nowhere near the same capabilities and aren’t as quality built
I feel like I just entered a time machine - wonderful playing gents!
Definitely know now I prefer the 5881 loaded Falcon These amps favor Fender style guitars The LPs were lacking IMO for some reason
Beautiful opening jam!
Mr. Pedal & Mr. Looper or Pedalman /Looperman the new super heroes on the block.! Awesome presentation.
Terrific sounds from great gear but obviously it comes at a cost. Great playing as always from you both. Take it even Tone King haven't worked out a way to make the tubes last if the attenuator is used mostly ....?
706 views and no comments?
Lovely playing guys. These amps sound superb.
You guys ought to do a comparison between the Tone King Falcon and the Morgan PR12, similarl specs so it would be interesting to hear how they sound side by side
Look at these young boys. Great comparison gents! Thanks.
Amazing intro guys....! Been sitting here with my Ditto X2 Looper this afternoon trying to somehow replicate - nope ;-)!! Will keep trying though. BTW love the Tone King's!
Beautiful
Beautiful intro jam!
Beautiful song in intro!
Nice work guys, keep it up.
Love that opening playing by Pete in the intro! Really awesome. What is the chord progression that is looped?
some sort of 6 4 1 5 if I'm hearing correctly. Probably Am F C G/B.
+wutnot It's Iron Maiden! :) This is almost identical to the quiet part from the song "Revelations" from Piece of Mind ("Just a babe / In a black abyss..." -- that part). But I'm guessing it's just a coincidence.... Or...is it?
Another superb opening jam.
Beautiful Jam Intro!
I need an Imperial
best opening jam in a while
Love watching your guys' videos. Great reviews and extremely entertaining.
Great demo guys
Holy shit that intro
Dos anyone know what scale they were using in the jam at the start of the video? Minor Blues?
+Chris Clarke - looks like a C major pentatonic by Pete's opening riff loupe.
Miss this
Pretty much... gotta have both!
Well I want a tone king now. Maybe someday when I have a spare 2k lying around...
i bought the Imperial MKII from Andertons last year on 9 months interest free credit, check your finance options where ever you live, you may be surprised!
The attenuator was invented by out of work power tube sales staff ;-)
Please do the BadCat player series!! Cub III 15 and 40 watts
This guitar pornography!!! Unbelievable tones..outstanding playing..high end instruments..
Thank you
would Friedman amps stands equal to those ? i guess tone king is more vintage oriented when Fried's can go more distored lands
anyone find good overdrive pairings for the imperial? most I use sound tinny and harsh
You really got to open up the volume with pedals
You should do a Sounds Like for The Edge of U2, now that fender released a signature strat for him I think it's time you do him
Are both with tube spring reverb? Wasn't sure in the falcon was a tube reverb.
Really versatile recording amps and great pedal platforms for gigging. 'spensive, tho.
"Can I use my attenuated amp in your bedroom?" Now THERE'S a chat-up line.
How does this not more likes? Best pickup line ever.
How do i learn to play like Pete? Seriously. Assuming i'm starting from scratch with regard to lead/soloing.....
that intro was orgasmic enjoyment
That was a surprisingly intense opening duel.
Rather than add an attenuator why not just use a master volume?
can't foot switch from dirty to clean in the falcon, i went with imperial
yes you can. Footswitch can take you through all 3 voicings in the amp.
I've never seen two guitarists' playing compliment eachother as beautifully as Mick and Pete's. Everyone says it but I would totally buy any album they put out.
Laney l5 vs egnater 20 with use of attenuator for bedroom tones please?
Dick Taylor tries his hardest to make him sound bad you just watched when he picked up the dozen Burg Pete has that look on his face keeps looking at Dick Taylor and is it's about ready to say something hes he sets it up in the worst possible tone and Pete still makes it sound good he goes another step further and you look at pete's facial expressions But Pete still makes it sound good even even with the ridiculous vibration historiculus vibrato disruption disruption we love you Pete!!!!! You are the man
Tasteful quality playing as always from you pair. Great review, great amps. Peters lost the paradiso tho, no shirt!!
Pete dansk, you have a cold or what? Too much bacon maybe. I played in Denmark with an Irish band and loved the people. Two rather cool guys (straight from the fridge - spot the quote.)
And of course the shirts.Do you have a dealer for those?
Good review
...Falcon Grande can swap out 5881 and achieve 30 watts with 6L6’s...and to my ear sounds better then the 5881’s
Interesting.. does this allow for more clean headroom on the rhythm channel, I guess it should? Does it still retain the black face character ? Thanks
@@cjbuk74 yes and yes…
Has Pete ever uploaded any of his loops onto Tc Electronics site (im assuming he`s still using the ditto looper) ? is it something he would consider doing?
I haven't. Haven't got time ;(. Might do it someday as its a good idea. Best. P
+Peter Honoré
Thamks for taking the time to reply, best wishes.
great shirt nick
We need a couple of Spy-Surfers on this channel!!
I have an Imperial Mk II and a Sky King, both with the Ironman II attenuator. For most places I run the attenuation one stop down from full volume to avoid ear fatigue on stage and in the audience. Full volume is an additional 3db louder, which isn’t a lot but it’s enough to be tiring after a couple hours. And, there’s barely any difference in the sound at that point, except for the volume.
I run on the lead channel on full volume, tone and mid-bite at noon, 99% of the time and control my volume from the guitar. All my guitars have treble-bleed caps so they clean up beautifully then scream when I go to to full volume on the guitar. They’re everything I’ve ever wanted in an amp.
The amps sound incredible with single-coils and humbuckers. This is a good demo but doesn’t come close to the sound of the amps cranked live when you’re standing in front of them.
