Fender Steel King as a Keyboard Amp

Post by Gary Reed »

Is there any feedback concerning using the Fender Steel King as a Synth amp?
How it sounds with Bass Guitar Patches?
Drum Machine?
Piano and organ patches?

I only want one amp for both Steel and Synth sounds. (not at the same time)
Thanks

I'd imagine they'd suck just as bad for either.

Peavey, like a Nashville 400 or Session 500 would be the ticket.

JMHO.

It should be OK. Besides steel & guitar, I use the FSK with my Nord Electro which has piano & organ patches.

For an unbiased opinion, I believe Mike Smith uses FSK for both steel & keys.
