Who owns and plays thru the new Fender Steel King amp? How does it compare with the Peavey line.

I own two Steel Kings and I love'em. The only way I can describe it to you is that the Steel King has more punch to it. The note seperation is better to me than my Nashville 400. Others may be able to explain it a little better than that but that's my 2 cents worth. I still own two Nashville 400's and will never part with them as I still love the sound of them as well but the Steel King just kicks butt.

It has a sound and presence all it's own. It does not sound like a PV or a Webb or an Evans. If you are looking to get away from the others and branch out this is the way to go.

Im with you fellers! I just love the sound of my Steelking. Good string seperation and power to spare.I also like the sound of its six spring Actutronics reverb better than most that I have ever heard.Yes it has its own unique sound. Not gonna get into a better or worse than....Just a sound all its own.PV,s and Evans and the rest are fine amps as well, like the others said, these are just different.What a boring world it would be if we all liked vannila!

Yup, exactly the same comments from me.
It has its own sound (Fender?!) and I agree it seems to allow for greater "string seperation", if that's even possible!
I brought it to our last RISGA meeting (www.risga.com) and the other players were very favorably impressed.

Love my F.S.K.! It even gives my Evans FET500LV with 1501 PV Black Widow a run for the money [This message was edited by PAUL WARNIK on 28 February 2005 at 11:31 AM.]
