The Soloist Deluxe - Overdrive

The KingTone SOLOIST Deluxe is a masterfully crafted overdrive pedal that takes you on a sonic journey, from sparkling clean boosts to rich, sustaining lead tones. Inspired by the acclaimed "String Singer" circuit from the brand's Duellist pedal, this expanded design offers unparalleled tonal versatility and dynamic responsiveness. At its heart, the SOLOIST Deluxe captures the essence of cranked tube amplifiers, delivering exceptional clarity and touch sensitivity. The wide-ranging Drive control allows you to seamlessly transition from glassy, amp-like cleans to full-bodied overdrive with long, singing sustain. Tone and Body controls provide precise shaping of high-frequency detail and midrange/low-end response, respectively, giving you the tools to sculpt your perfect tone. But the SOLOIST Deluxe goes beyond the basics, with a Boost switch that instantly ups the drive and volume for solos or more aggressive passages. Multiple voicing modes - Edge, Stock, and Glass - let you tailor the pedal's top-end and harmonic content, from warm vintage smoothness to bright, cutting articulation. The KingTone and Davey settings further expand the tonal palette, adding a vocal, edgy midrange or emulating the touch and harmonics of high-end "Dumblesque" overdrive amps. The SRV MOD feature is a game-changer, blending a clean signal with the driven tone to enhance note clarity and dynamic punch - a technique famously used by Stevie Ray Vaughan. And the Amp-Like mode reproduces the response and natural compression of a cranked tube amplifier, delivering the perfect platform for expressive lead playing. Crafted with premium, hand-wired components and true-bypass switching, the KingTone SOLOIST Deluxe is built to last a lifetime. Whether you're chasing classic rock tones or exploring new sonic frontiers, this pedal is a must-have for the discerning guitarist.
