@@SuperdangerStudios do you think you'll do a video on drive pedals that work well with blackface style amps? I know you love the Revival Drive for basically any type of amp. Any others?
@@stratonarrowso sorry I missed this comment. I can totally do a pedal shoot out w my blues Jr / iridium. Off the top of my head: boss sd-1, any tube screamer style, most germanium fuzz pedals, klon style pedals (Joyo Tauren)
If the four toggle switches work a like a king of tone, both down on either side is clean boost. first one up second one down is overdrive. first one down. Second one up is the distortion.
Super danger… I watch this demo from time to time cuz it’s is a tone master class, I enjoy the playing, and a clearly informative review of a kool pedal!! 🤙
Amazing playing and great full demo! Totally gonna pick one of these up at some point. I always brushed Joyo off as knockoffs, but as we all learn at some point, there are no knockoffs in the guitar pedal world, just good sounds and bad sounds. Rock on, dude!
That’s a great sounding pedal for that price. I’m an OCD fan as well. Bought a Joyo Ultimate Drive as a backup to it. For about $30 bucks it’s in the ball park. It’s crazy how good guitarists have it today in regards to budget friendly gear.
Awesome video! The pedal sounds great. Interesting that the Joyo infront of the dream 65 yielded those tones. I use a king of tone infront of a 78 Deluxe Reverb with a strat and it sounds great. The KoT brings back some mids, especially when stacked. It always fits well with my setup
I was surprised too. I think the headroom on the dream is really low even at its lowest gain setting and the drive inherent in the pedal gets really muddy when used with a distortion pedal. The King of Kings sounds great in front of my blues jr. so maybe its just the pedal. Cheers!
I have a Prince of Tone which I love...can't make any comparison from your video, but you're getting great tones...you have a nice touch with the guitar...really good playing.
@Superdanger Studios it would be interesting to see your thoughts on a complete Joyo rig. I started fiddling around and for roughly 700 bucks a person could put together a pretty insane arsenal. (All prices are sourced from Amazon's Joyo page) Zombie II Bantamp 20w tube preamp class D power section head $160, King of Kings $55, R-12 10 band EQ $89, Vision Dual Mod. $99, Legal Done Noise Gate $55, and a Dr. J Compressor $45. Unfortunately everywhere I looked Joyo soeaker cabs were either unavailable or the asking price was ridiculously high so when it comes to cost effective I looked at the Harley Benton 1x12 loaded with Celestion V30 is $159 plus shipping. This is of course what I felt would be the essentials for covering just about any genre of music and would provide the most tonal versatility. The interesting thing about this is that everything costs less than a big name amplifier head by itself and it is not digital captures or representations.
I have the tweedy bantamp actually. I will do a full joyo setup actually. I dont have a comp but I have a tauren, kok, vision, narcissus, good morning drive, 2 fuzzs, and the IR speaker pedal. That should be a good video. Thanks for the idea!
Nice. I love your "But I want more". You put all of that together like a recipe'; a mathmatical equation. And it worked too, because you got a big ole smile on your face. Nothing I dont better than the smell of overdrive and distortion first thing in the morning.
I’ll vouch for these guys. I picked up one of their TAICHI petals for like 50 or 60 bucks from Amazon just to check it out, and honestly it is equally as good as my Hermida Audio Zen Drive.
thanks for the cool Vid. i got mine not too long ago and found it's way instantly on my pedalboard to be input stage for my two-notes "le lead" valve preamp. fits perfectly for all kind of sounds i play. for the hefty distortion i use the Joyo "Splinter" instead. But for overdriven sounds on my Humbucker equipped guitars this "King of Kongs" as i call it, is the best bank for the buck to get. rock on 🙂
Bought this online and I have to say it works great exactly as you said: in front of a Marshall Amp. I have a Strymon Iridium and a DSL1CR and they both take this pedal very nice. I also wish there was more flexibility with those toggles, but at 59 Euros, c'mon... I like your channel btw. Cheers from Vienna.
Im not sure if you have a video about this already, but where would you recommend learning how to play like you online? I love your style of playing and I’m dedicated to learn! Thank you 😊
I haven't really covered playing style but I will start to do videos on it once a week! Is there a certain passage that you want to learn? Or just the overall style?
@@SuperdangerStudios thank you for your response! I just like your style in general. It reminds me of all the guitar music I like listening to…! I’m looking forward to those videos 💪🏾
In the king of tone circuit there are 2 sets of clipping diodes. One in the soft clipping loop of the op amp, and one after the op amp which makes it hard clipping. The switches are turning those clipping diodes on or off. Or, more accurately, the off setting is bypassing the clipping diodes so you're only getting op amp overdrive.
Thanks, Joey! I am writing/recording the video to the Joyo Vision now. It's insane how many sounds they packed into this pedal. Gonna be like a 30 minute video haha.
I am on the King of Tone waiting list with about a year to go till I reach the top of the list. But, I really like the way this pedal sounds. So, do I wait the year for the KOT, or do I buy this pedal now? It sounds so good that I might have to pull the trigger.
@@SuperdangerStudios I already bought it and I got it a few days ago. I have to say, this pedal is really good. Way better than I expected. Maybe I will sell it, once I get the KOT, but I might decide to keep it. By the way, great review video! It inspired me to get this pedal.
Hi there, love the video, great playing!! Would you possibly be able to tell me what each of those 4 toggle switches do, from left to right? I'd really appreciate it. I can't seem to find any info on them. I saw you cover them on the video, I'd just like to have what they do typed out for me to refer to, as I have ordered the pedal. Thanks!
They change the clipping characteristics but are really really subtle. And only noticeable at higher gain and volume. It is soft clipping and hard clipping so overdrive and distortion respectively. Let me know how the pedal sounds!
@@SuperdangerStudios thanks a lot man! I've been playing with all toggle switches pointed down, whenever I point any of the toggle switches up, it cuts the volume to that channel by about 80%. Wondering why that is, wondering if mine might be faulty or something
@@snicker576 that is on my pedal too. not faulty wiring. The different clipping modes just affect the volume. But since there isn't a huge tonal change I use it pointed down like you haha. Cheers!
@@snicker576 Clipping literally means you are chopping off the rounded tops of the waveform...which makes a smooth curve into a more "squared-off" type of shape...which gives the distorted sound, but also lowers the amplitude of the waveform, making it quieter. So for this pedal, if you want equivalent volume with the clipping engaged, you'll need to boost the Vol knob a bit.
I have a lot of Joyo pedals, and this is the only one I didn’t like and got rid of. My main gripe was the volume knobs on mine had to be 75% to be the same volume as the bypassed signal. In other words, the first 3/4 of the volume knobs for mine dropped my volume, therefore weren’t useful to me. I don’t think you’re having the same issue, so it may have been just the one I had. 🤷🏽 Either way, the other dozen Joyo pedals I have are fantastic!
Mine had a similar situation but not as severe. I had to goose the output to get unity gain. I really love this pedal. I need to get it back on the board!
Uou should check out the tc electronic ampworx jims 45. It's excellent from what I've gathered. I own have the tc electronic ampworx 65 reverb myself. Really great with a jazzmaster
I’ve been waiting 62 months for a King of Tone. There are 100 more days of waiting list in front of me. Analogman knocked two days off of that in the last two months. One a month. 100 days. You do the math. Will be a ten year plus wait at this rate. They supposedly build more in the winter thanks to two former employees who farm can’t farm in the winter so they help build pedals. Apparently no one else in the world can be taught how to build them. So we wait. But wait. There’s this. Which I will get. Thanks.
The KOT supposedly comes with one side set "hotter" than the other, which is adjustable inside the pedal. Wonder if the KOK is the same? A question for JOYO.
The punch channel works so much better with any distortion than the chime and round channels. At least to my ears. I was using the Marshall M25 mix 11 from York Audio.
@@SuperdangerStudios That’s nice from you to answer, thanks. I was trying to figure it out, but I think I messed it up hard as it seemed to me chromatic ascending and changing 3rds from minor to major. It looks you use your thumb as well. I appreciate if you have the time to tab it.
Thanks for watching! I was using the one spot daisy chain for this one. A bit noisey at times. I have since upgraded to the cs12 which is really great.
@@whatshappening177 yeah sorry to confuse you. This is an older video where I was still learning how to make videos. My more recent ones are very easy to follow!
I recently used the King of Kings dual overdrive pedal with a fantastic seventies tube amp called the Evan Bass 60. This Italian-made amp and the overdrive sound incredible together! Video's on my channel.
I recently bought a Joyo American Sound, old I know but for its price I think its great! An overdrive pedal is next and your videos are great to make a decision. I'm between this and the Tauren. Thanks for the reviews, these are being really helpful!
@@SuperdangerStudios so strange! Yeah I saw you demonstrate it later in the video. Maybe there are some internal potentiometers that we can adjust, for the levels ideal to us :)
I bought one after many reviews. I don't like it. I use it on a twin reverb with different style guitars but can't find an enjoyable "tone". It sucks the quality out of my signal to a very narrow, shallow tone. The drive is meh too. When I hit the twin a Nobels mini it moves the ground and really rocks. That joyo does the opposite. The signal becomes flat/shallow/weak. Also the switcht to clipping 2 sucks volume down. Not my pedal on my twin reverb. Maybe a cheaper amp likes it better. Btw I feel no need to run it through my odr mini.
@@SuperdangerStudios thanks for replying. Also, I think it sounds a little better with double coil input. A strat with fender amp is far from ideal with this pedal.
I went through a phase where I wanted to collect overdrive pedals; at the time all I had was a full drive 2 and a Klone pedal. Since then I got a Blues Driver and an OCD clone, and have decided that I prefer the two pedals I started with. Not sure if there’s enough difference in pedals to keep buying more of them It’s hard to deny that GAS though and the price tag for the KofK pedal is compelling.
They gave me a Sweet Baby pedal, based on the Sweet Honey OD. It’s a great pedal….really. It’s an always on pedal, because I worry about the switch…lol.
@@kylesamson8651 It’s a great boost drive!! As good as the Sweet Honey 99/100. Joyo switches are leave a little to be desired, but you can’t beat the sound!
I like that you mentioned "blasphemous" because there is only one King of Kings ☝️, i really liked on what you said about Joyo giving you the pedal. So many RUclipsrs sound like they've been given dirty money when they are explaining "yes i was given this but I'm going to give you my honest opinion, for real I'm not lying 🙄" 😂😂😂. I would say most of us are adults and like you said we will be able to hear the truth 👍

I ordered one of those pedals purely based on this video. Great stuff!
You DO have a nice style. Refreshing. Familiar too. There are tons of players on YT today (I'm one lol)... But I could listen to you jam for day, man.
Like Josh from JHS says, if it sounds good it is good, even if it's cheap.
Absolutely! When I was a waiter my manager told me the same thing. “The best wine is the wine you like. The label is just to reinforce that decision.”
I just got one, and I love it. It's a truly great pedal-and I own a King of Tone.
Great to hear! It’s a blast to use right?
@@SuperdangerStudios Absolutely - I am really impressed with Joyo.

@@MatthewApsey lol
@@SuperdangerStudios Mine just arrived today. Sounds absolutely terrific.
Love the slightly blasphemous name. This one I might pickup
Haha you’re the first person to pick up on that.
They gave me a Sweet Baby pedal, based on the Sweet Honey OD. It’s a great pedal….really. It’s an always on pedal, because I worry about the switch…lol.
I’ve tried so many different overdrives and always end up going back to the Sweet Baby. This KOK sounds great too! Great content!
@@kylesamson8651 It’s a great boost drive!! As good as the Sweet Honey 99/100. Joyo switches are leave a little to be desired, but you can’t beat the sound!
@@liontone I have mine in the loop of a boss ms3 so I can just leave the pedal on all the time and switch it in and out. Cheers!
I gotta try the sweet baby!
I like that you mentioned "blasphemous" because there is only one King of Kings ☝️, i really liked on what you said about Joyo giving you the pedal. So many RUclipsrs sound like they've been given dirty money when they are explaining "yes i was given this but I'm going to give you my honest opinion, for real I'm not lying 🙄" 😂😂😂. I would say most of us are adults and like you said we will be able to hear the truth 👍
Amen! And youre right! I assume all adults can filter out what a pedal could sound like in their rig regardless of the advertising angle! CHeers!
@@SuperdangerStudios 👊👊
I imagine this with a mid knob would be super versatile.
It would! Putting an eq pedal after would be a good call. I actually have a single band parametric eq i might use for that.
Joyo need a HM2 clone
I think they just came out with a heavy distortion pedal. Can't remember the name.
This brand is getting a lot of attention..
I subd .. I ended up buying the pedal .. but that’s not why I subd .. I subd because you mentioned the “slightly blasphemous name” …
There is only 1 King of King!
I tried one and it sounded terrible :/
Dang that’s crazy. Maybe a bad unit?
"im a reguler guy" no youre NOTT
I am!
good style review..... well done sir :). i ain't gay but damn, you must get alot of chicks :)
Haha thank you my dude. And I’m married to the game so yknow how that goes haha
Lol! Slightly blasphemous. That’s the first thing I noticed. Thanks for the demo.
Haha I think I’m the only person who brought this up!
Wow. I'm not sure I've ever seen a blaspheming guitar pedal before.
Great review. I'd prefer an affiliate partner that does not send billionaires to Mars though. I will absolutely never buy at Amazon.
Once I get approved into another retail store affiliate program it’s gonna change
you're right it is a slightly blasphemous name
That right side tone in front of a blackface is BEGGING for a tele! Would sound better with some chicken pickin style.
Good call! I’ll do it this weekend for a short video
@@SuperdangerStudios you’ve definitely sold me on the pedal though! I’m a worship guitarist I can’t wait to see what it’ll do with a nice reverb.
Love the slightly blasphemous name. This one I might pickup
Haha it is!
