Tone King Gremlin Amp Tone Test By Willy Booger

Hi KZread Friends! Happy you are here for the Tone King Gremlin Amp test run. I really ...... REALLY like this amp! Tone for days. I love dialing it in and in the video I show my settings. The Gremlin amp is 5 watts and has an attenuator built in. I as well show the pedalboard I used with it. These really are GREAT USA HAND MADE GUITAR AMPS! What do you think of the tone? Willy Booger Playing For Jesus Christ !!!!!!!

    I just bought a Gremlin. It’s the best amp I’ve played through in 46 years of playing. The Gremlin IS full of tone. It’s also full of famous tones, from Creedence to the Rolling Stones and more. Who needs pedals? 😁👍

    Only way to play brother...I'm a month into owning my Gremlin Head version though Absolutely love it and I am a picky MoFo It's amazing how good all the rest of your gear sounds when touched by it I bought brand new in 04 a re-ish Marshall 4/12 cab A faithful replica w basket weave...brass logo...T660 25 watt alnico speakers...leather handles Beautiful recreation Sounded ok, pretty much thought the speakers needed breaking in So played it from time to time w no real changes Unremarkable pretty much But when I plugged the Gremlin into it the true magic happened All the guitars I thought were starting to be lacking came alive Effects as well Every piece of gear the Tone King comes into contact with just sounds it's best Couldn't be happier I was almost going to get rid of a 64 Strat cause of the lack of proper amplification Thank GOD for Tone King Gonna get the Falcon Grande next Very happy w my gear now Oh yeah lol by the way you made that amp sing Good stuff 👍

    Damn you're a great player. I'm interested in this amp, or the Tone King imperial mk2. I can afford either, but this is much cheaper. The imperial has reverb and trem built in, which is nice. Also had a mid bite that sounds awesome. Then there's this amp that can really nail at what it does for half the price is the imperial.

    If you already have reverb pedals and OD pedals and are cool with that, the Gremilin does a great job, pretty loud amp at 5 watts. For home jams or small gigs for sure.

    Yeah I wanted to check them out so got the least cost wise which was the Gremlin but it is by no means the least good sounding It is fantastic I'm not a huge 6V6 fan so am going with the Falcon Grande next that has 5881 tubes and is 20 watts compared to the 5 watt Gremlin But can't go wrong with any of them IMO and I've been playing for 45 years 25 of them professionally

    The Tone Kings are mostly BF/Tweed tones But the Falcon Grande has 3 settings and in the lead setting - low input it's very Plexi sounding IMO edge of break up hairy clean Same setting in the Hi input it's tweed break up tones Very versatile amp I'm getting one next I got the Gremlin head first so getting the Falcon Grande combo asap I'm that happy with the Tone King amps Every piece of gear they touch sound fantastic It's eye/ear opening Really

    I'm looking at getting a good apartment amplifier. I really can't ever play above TV volumes. 75 decibels is the loudest I can ever crank it. I'm debating between this or something much cheaper. I'm willing to pay for awesome tones but want to make sure this is worth the price even at low volumes. What do you think?

    In the future maybe I can do a blind tone test. I will have to say, with finesse and tweaking most guitar amps can sound good. In the room playing with this amp is second to nobody. Night and day. I love the parts caster! I just like changing it up sometimes.

    In the video when I showed the back of the amp the attenuator setting was on 3, wide open is 5 It was a pretty good volume. This amp is LOUD if you want it to be even thought it is 5 watts, but can be taken down to a whisper.
