The Prince of Tone is a guitar pedal made by the best half of the legendary King of Tone pedal. It takes a clean guitar amp sound, boosts it, and adds a range of natural tube-sounding drive effects. It is the same as half of the original, but with an even higher gain delivery. The King of Tone has gained a reputation as one of the most desirable guitar pedals ever made. It is so popular that it has a long waiting list. So why is it so great? It is due to the man behind the product, Mike Piera of Analog Man, and the pedal’s transparency, tweakability, and versatility. The Prince of Tone is a more straightforward version of the King of Tone. It has three knobs for volume, distortion, and tone, along with the three-way toggle switches and mods. The first setting gives you the definitive King of Tone tube screamer sound; the second mode can work as a superior clean boost on low volume and drive or add a bit of overdrive crunch with things turned up. Finally, the third or distortion mode gives you a bit harder overdrive tone, with additional compression. The controls of the Prince of Tone include four potentiometers for Gain, Pres, Vol, and Tone, and one switch for Mode. It is an excellent pedal that lives up to the expectations or even surpasses them with all those improvements over the original circuit.
