MXR's Duke of Tone Overdrive Effects Pedal is designed for discerning guitarists seeking vintage-inspired overdrive tones with modern versatility. Created in collaboration with boutique pedal maker Analog Man, the Duke of Tone Overdrive provides three modes of rich, harmonically complex overdrive that retain the natural sound of your instrument. Volume, Drive and Tone controls offer a full range of overdrive flavors, from a clean boost to saturated distortion. The Boost/OD/Distortion switch selects between sparkling clean boost, warm overdrive and fully saturated distortion. With components hand-selected for premium tone, the Duke of Tone Overdrive delivers studio-quality overdrive in a rugged, stage-ready enclosure.

Stage Pickup System Provides Unprecedented Control

The Duke of Tone Overdrive's innovative three-mode overdrive circuit provides a wealth of tonal options. Boost mode delivers up to 20dB of clean volume boost, perfect for solos or adding crunch to an already overdriven amp. OD mode produces a rich, dynamic overdrive with tones ranging from subtle breakup to near-distortion. Distortion mode unleashes a full-bodied distortion capable of high-gain saturation. An intuitive control set makes dialing in your perfect overdrive tone effortless.

Harness Warm, Vintage Tones

Hand-selected components, including film and tantalum capacitors, provide the Duke of Tone Overdrive with a warm, musical overdrive tone. The overdrive circuit itself is based on a vintage tube overdrive design using JFETs to emulate the smooth distortion of tube overdrive. The result is a natural, amp-like overdrive tone that enhances the tone of your instrument rather than masking it.

Built for the Rigors of the Road

Housed in a rugged cast-aluminum enclosure with top-mounted jacks and switches, the Duke of Tone Overdrive is built to withstand the rigors of stage and studio use. It can operate on a standard 9V power supply or higher-voltage 18V power for increased headroom and dynamic range. A high-quality buffered bypass ensures your tone remains unaffected when the pedal is disengaged.
