And the 12W Falcon, Mark's most recent model, is taking the vintage amp market by storm: Think old school Tweed meets Supro in a single channel combo that lives between clean and dirty … with Mark's breakthrough Ironman power attenuator built right in. It earned "Premier Gear" and "Best of 2011" designations from Premier Guitar magazine. Mark's Galaxy model is voiced for chime, warmth and a spongy, organic feel. His Metropolitan model features Phase-4 power control, a breakthrough in vacuum tube amp technology that ensures consistent tone from 0.1W to 40W, clean or gained up, in big venues or small. His first vacuum tube amp model, the Imperial, has been a trusted small venue standard for over 20 years. Mark tests and retests countless wood, component and configuration combinations until he hears that exquisite vintage sound worthy of the name Tone King. Mark Bartel has focused on nothing but the design, construction and perfection of the vacuum tube amplifier for over thirty years.

Output Power 0.1W-40W Adjustable Reverb Tube-Driven, Full Size 3-Spring Pan The Metropolitan also comes with a newly designed Rhythm channel with a greater variety of tones-from those found in original Tone King amps to new sounds with added chime and midrange heft.
The system delivers the sound and feel of a cranked up, overdriven tube amp at any volume-even “bedroom” levels-thanks to the 0.1- to 40-watt usable output power range for both channels. The hand-built Metropolitan features the revolutionary Phase-4 power control system. With ultra-pure signal paths and a phrase inverter that automatically calibrates and balances, the Metropolitan delivers clean notes with crystal clear clarity that produce the ultimate sustain.
Tone King amps are popular for their vintage voices, but the Metropolitan goes beyond the coveted tones to bring you extra dirt and added resonance. Bringing you a unique sound, the lightweight Tone King Metropolitan combo amp gives you the tonal versatility of modeling amps and the uncompromising tone of valve amps.
