Our take

Who this one is for

The Ironman II is a 100-watt reactive power attenuator. It sits between the amp and the speaker, lets the amp run at full output, and sends only a chosen fraction of that power on to the cab. Its load follows the impedance curve of a real speaker, and the power is divided through custom transformers rather than a resistor ladder, so the top end and the feel of the amp come through at low settings.

There are 18 settings across the Solo, Hi and Lo ranges. The included footswitch flips between Solo and your Hi or Lo setting, which gives you a second, louder level for solos. A three-position Presence switch takes some brightness off. Separate impedance switches for the amp and the speaker (4, 8 or 16 ohms each) let you match a cab that doesn't match the amp.

The back has a balanced XLR DI with an analog cab simulation (cone or edge mic position, level, ground lift) and a 1/4" line out, so it also works as a load box for silent recording with no speaker connected. For an amp of 30 watts or less into 8 ohms, the Ironman II Mini is the smaller, pedal-format option.

Pre-orders

Questions we get

How much do I pay today?

Your choice: the full price, or a 25% deposit. On a deposit, the balance is due when the guitar reaches the shop, before it ships to you. A deposit is paid by card or PayPal. Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay can't take one.

When will it arrive?

It varies by product, anywhere from two weeks up to several months. If you'd like a date for this model first, ask us in the chat and we'll check with the supplier before you order. If you're ready now, go ahead: we confirm the ETA by email once your order is in, and if it changes, we let you know and you can cancel.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time before the supplier invoices it and ships it to us. We refund what you paid less 3% to cover the card processing fee.

Once it has shipped to us it is a special order and final sale. If it arrives with something wrong, we put that right.

What if the price goes up before it arrives?

You pay the price you ordered at. Once your order is placed we hold that price, even if the supplier raises it before the guitar arrives.

Is the free setup included?

Yes. A pre-order is an online order, so it gets the same free setup: it crosses our bench before it ships, set up the way you choose. The setup menu above shows what that covers.

Do I pay duty or brokerage on a US order?

No. Duty, taxes, brokerage and customs on a US order are handled at our end before the instrument leaves Ottawa. It arrives at your door with nothing to pay.

Orders going anywhere outside Canada and the United States work differently. The shipping and returns policy sets out which is which.

Can I finance it?

Yes, if you are in Canada and paying in full. Pick PayPlan by RBC or Shop Pay Installments as your payment method at checkout. The plan, the rate and the approval sit with the provider, and you see the terms before you agree to anything. You pay a deposit by card or PayPal.
