sorry, didn't mean to hijack your Tone King thread
err i already did when I posted in what i thought was the wish list thread
sorry, didn't mean to hijack your Tone King thread
I am not a tech guy so no idea...
I only know what I hear. I love victory amps and I'm certainly not a Marshall fan, so if they are Marshall-based, the mods of the Victory are really good and worth modelling on the Axe.
Thanks! So I should get Victory sounds when tweaking the Cornford?isn’t Martin Kidd the victory guy
if he is then its based on the Cornford

People just want more choice, whether it's exactly like a fender is irrelevant to the way people (guitarist's) think. "If i had that kalughn and steel string singer my gear searching days would be over." If you think of it like why would someone buy the Toneking imperal doohickie over a Fender deluxe? why not just get the Deluxe? because it's not the Toneking imperial doohickie. It's an ongoing thing that will never end.
I think once the "Cliff has a better way in patent gulag" is over and implemented, maybe that will spell an end to all the requests for all these obscure amps. Someone somewhere can "capture" it.
I have an Imperial Mk II sitting beside me that's my #1 tube amp, and it doesn't sound like any Fender I've ever heard. There's a depth to its clean channel that makes my strats sound glorious. The lead channel with the gain on 10 and tone and mid-bite at 5 goes from cleans to snarling with a tweed type of sound bordering on early Marshall, and increasing the mid-bite just makes it more and more Marshall-ish, which isn't bad for a 1x12" 22-ish watt combo.The Imperial is definitely not the same as any other fender circuit. I'm kind of surprised by the general equivalency responses. Tone King actually have some pretty neat innovations and they're made by the same Boutique Amp or whatever factory as Friedman, Soldano and Morgan.
Just the build quality alone is enough to know it's nothing like a Fender as a Friedman is really not a Marshall as Morgan is not a Vox.
Um... wouldn’t a request for a Victory amp be in a different thread? This is for the Toneking Imperial.Some stuck up wise ass will probably comment which amp the tone king is based on and tell you to experiment with that ... Not helpfull at all. But I second your question and would like to add the victory amps (duchess) to that list! Cheers man!

True, but I agree with @dpeterson: one of the main selling points of the Axe is having various amps (e.g. your fav) at your fingertips.If people treated the amp models more like sound presets they'd probably care less about adding more amps.
There's plenty of reasons to own the real amp that don't apply in the modeling world: the attenuator, the tweed meets blackface channel setup, the build quality, the bias tremolo and the speaker. All of those are things not offered by Fender in one amp.
The Tone King Imperial is one of the best clean amps I've ever tried but at the same time it is very firmly Fender based so I have no doubts you can get those tones already out of the Axe-Fx. ...
Bartel's new line of amps (post- ToneKing) would be great to have models and IRs for. They're very unique and the cabinets resonate like a cello, deliberately contributing to the sound. They're not typical preamp architecture according to Mark and the controls are very interactive. Given the times, and the flexibility of Cygnus I'm not sure I can justify one of the new models, but I'd enjoy playing through one.The thing you would want to include is the speaker because that custom Eminence is surely a big part of the tone of the amp so getting an IR of that cab would be a good addition.
I did, based on the suggestions given in https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/tone-king-imperial-mark-knopfler-amp.161455/post-1935150I have a feeling people havent experimented with swapping tone stacks.
Cliff will consider it possibly if you have the amp to send and a schematicI did, based on the suggestions given in https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/tone-king-imperial-mark-knopfler-amp.161455/post-1935150
, but it was still missing the sound of my Imperial. I intend to fiddle with it some more when I have the actual amp running so I can bounce back and forth.
