The Club Royale is a super versatile and strong 20 watt, British-leaning workhorse. It will cover not only Vox tones (AC30 Top Boost and non-boost), but gets into Marshal territory, as well. This is the newest Club Royale MK V version that includes both AC30 Top Boost voicing ("TB" mode - standard on previous versions of the Club Royale) and a second channel/voicing that delivers stock, unboosted AC30 tone ("Clean" mode). It sounds huge - open, big and dynamic. The Fat/Bright switch works in both "TB" and "Clean" modes, giving a wide range of voicing options.
The MK V also sports the newest Top Hat look, with a circular Top Hat logo (that lights) inset into a "V". This combo is wrapped in textured fawn tolex. Its a very sharp look.
