Duke of Tone Overdrive

This MXR Duke of Tone Overdrive is a truly outstanding drive pedal. If you're looking for a versatile and high-quality alternative to the highly sought-after King of Tone, which comes with a lengthy five-year waitlist and a hefty price tag, then this pedal is an excellent choice. It seamlessly delivers a wide range of tones, encompassing Boost, Overdrive, and Distortion, all accessible through a convenient toggle switch that allows for easy selection of Tone, Drive, and Distortion settings. Another great feature is its compact size, making it ideal for maximizing the limited space on any guitar pedalboard.

Amazing, worth every penny. Great sounding OD stacks great before a tubescreamer or a Klon style OD.

Incredible OD and boost. It is light and touch-sensitive, but also provides plenty of sustain and warmth. Very versatile. Good on its own, or stacked for a boost. As with any OD its hard to explain without trying it yourself, but for a very reasonable price, you can have a smooth, pro-quality overdrive on your board with this.

It took about 10 minutes for this pedal to find a permanent place on my pedal board. Such great tone. Most of my pedals are Strymon or Walrus Audio, and this tiny little pedal stands easily alongside them. So far, using it as more of a clean boost with just a bit of overdrive into the Walrus Audio 385 mark ii (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CHN2H537?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_9&th=1). Great combination. Pros: GREAT tone. Easy to use/tweak. Tiny form factor to easily fit any pedalboard. Cons: I prefer ins/outs on the top of the pedal instead of the sides, though this thing is too small for that.

It does what it's advertised for. Nice sound in the OD or Boost position. Distortion position doesn't do much, but that what I was expecting. This circuit is suppose to give a "transparent" push to the sound, and my opinion, it accomplish that. If you need a Distortion pedal, take something more specific for your needs.

Designed with the master himself. What more do you need to know? It sounds amazing, and you have to keep in mind that the internal presence trim pot makes all the difference. I noticed that my copy had the trim pot set to 50% but the POT and KOT have them set at 0% out of the box. That's why all of these comparison videos don't do it justice. I have no problem with the mini form factor, and the footswitch is perfect on this. The blue LED on the front of the footswitch is also a nice touch. Open it up and take a look at how well it is built using quality parts.

Just remember there’s a trim pot inside!

The boost and overdrive are sweet, distortion is just okay to my ears. The problem is that construction quality leaves a bit to the imagination. The foot switch rattled in what I believe is two different units (unless I returned the first one indicating that it was problematic) and they sent me back the same one or two separate units have the same issue. Never had an MXR pedal but based on this, not sure if I would do another one….

Tout est dans le titre. En soi la disto est plutôt sympa mais on dirait que ça amplifie les aigus et retire toutes les basses. À ce prix là bif

Se stai leggendo qui, è perché hai quasi deciso di prenderlo dopo aver guardato 849 video su YouTube. Per quel che può valere, prendilo! Fa esattamente quello che ci si aspetta, il suono è QUELLO senza aspettare 11 anni o spendere follie per un usato.

Love the tone and quality.

Great pedal super small size for floor space economies but the big win is the tone of the pedal is great, also works well to stack tone too and great value for money

Great pedal that gets better and better at volume. With a good valve amp, you can really punch through.
