King Royal Head (35W)
A two-channel, 35-watt Class A head modeled on a Vox AC-30, pairing a simple Normal channel with a Top Boost channel and four EL84 power tubes.
About this amp
The King Royale runs four EL84s in a classic Class A output stage behind two channels - a simple Volume/Tone channel derived from a standard AC-30, and a full Top Boost channel with Treble, Mid, Bass, and Master Volume. A three-position Fat-Off-Bright switch shapes preamp gain and a Channel I/Normal/Channel II switch lets either channel run clean. Rear panel adds an adjustable line out and impedance control.
