For me, those clean tones are the best example of 'perfect' strat tones I have heard .

I think your amp itself sounded better than either of those pedal tones

Matt in 1959 I was 3 years old , I played my first bass at age 15 it has a huge 1968 Fender P bass and it was heavy and bigger than me , my friends said be our bass player Mark , I said okay.

And your demonstration was outstanding. Great chops. Thanks.

That tone is insane Matthew. Killer

Matthew, great fingers, lovely tones and good honest opinion. Very much enjoying your videos as always. Looking forward to the refret. Thanks for sharing. PEACE 😀🎸

Simply terrific! I’d always been a guitar to amp guy for 40+ years and I’d played a friends rig, with this pedal, and I was hooked! This was last August, and since then I’ve spent $5K on pedals and my pedalboard, and now I can obtain ANY tone I’m looking for and am surprised at the tones I didn’t even consider. So, this is all new too me, but now my sound is incredible! Thanks for the videos and all your help and hard work! It’s much appreciated. Best! ✌🏼

Stashman fpv. I kinda go through different phases over the years between being a straight in guy and a pedal guy. But I agree, pedals are just so much more flexible and you can usually do it at much more practical volumes. I can plug my Duellist into my Elmwood Modena m60 (which has a old plexi type clean) and I can sound like I’m plugged into a cranked super reverb at reasonable volume. Love it!!!!!

You just got the right feeling Matthew.. amazing

Your playing is always on point

Love your videos keep them coming very inspirational and educational

A true guitar-to-amp guy was once called an " Angus ", now it shall be called a " Matthew ". Kudos dude, guitar, high end cable, amp, chops for days...Perfect.

Funny you made this video, ive been itching for one for weeks and pulled the trigger yesterday

That's a Great Pedal! Well done and thanks for sharing brother! Be Well Matthew!

I was already sold on the Duellist but always wanted your take on it. Brilliant

That is insane tone. You're well up there with the best.

Great pedal, it even looks amazing.

Great, useable sounds for gigging or recording. I definitely hear SRV and EC tones which is not a bad way to go ever. Your playing was really good and your finger vibrato is excellent. Really good demo!

dude that clean tone at 2:40 is the clean i’ve been trying to get for months!!

Jesse is an amazing player. I saw him play back in 2000 with The Hoax...such a showman. I was grinning for like a whole week afterwards...ringing ears ever since though haha

Yeah mate, sounds real nice. That strat’s gonna sound sweet regardless.

My favorite overdrive. I don't think it will leave my board anytime soon

I’m sure the pedal is great, and the guitar and amp are stellar. But it’s your chops that win the day. You’re a gunslinger!

Pedal sounds wonderful.

Those knobs look amazing.

Gr8 sounds as always awesome

Goddamn man ur absolutely a fantastic guitar player. And really perfectly emulate the SRV style. Just really good shit man im impressed when i watch you

I have an old Silvertone that sounds exactly like the second channel of that pedal. That is a great sounding pedal for sure and obviously your playing is always outstanding.

In a blind test, people would never know the difference between SRV and you. I believe you have nailed the tone, but more importantly his style, but made it your own. This isn't the first video I have seen of you, so I know you know how to play really well, and you do.

Awesome tones!

Best "Stevie in a box" I've found was a Super Six made by a company named Love Pedal. Works well to simulate a cranked Super Reverb. So, works well if you have a generally clean setting and add the pedal to it. I'm not sure how it would sound to an already cranked Super though.

Good review. Seems like a worthwhile pedal. Very well played, as usual.

The elusive thing about overdrive is keeping the voice of the guitar rather than just distortion .

Great playing and demo!

I was always under the impression that amps should give your dirt but lately I'm really enjoying pedals like The Dude and the Vertex T-Drive and the Bogner Blue Ecstasy pedal....they are all KILLER!

Yeah, sounds great.

I have a few KingTone pedals. This one is pretty damn awesome. The Blues Power pedal is amazing and so is the mini fuzz. All three are on my board and I’m totally digging what they’re doing for me for what I’m looking for in terms of tones and overdrive.

Playing is high level when you let loose bruh 🤙🏽

The Marshall side really got my attention. Nice demo.

That is a lot of drive!!

I’ve had mine for a while now... basically a modded tubescreamer and a blues driver in one pedal. Love it. I own the octaland as well, another great pedal.

Seems great

Awsome sounding pedal

I have the duelist and the germanium fuzz king tone makes. They are forever pedals. I love them.

Great review...👍🎸🎶🎵🎼

Matt- I had the similar reaction when I got my Duellist! I really liked the “BluesBreaker” side... just had great boost, more than enough grit, and a very full frequency response... Killer pedal! His fuzz pedals are fantastic too! BTW- if you are a fuzz guy (not sure you are), but DanDrive fuzzes are fantastic! Peace!

very cool

Great playing but, This pedal can do so much more.... you can get so much great sounds out of it by turning the knobs and the different positions of the micro switches on top. In my opinion it’s really the best dual od there is. I like it a lot!!

I’m gonna go buy that and try it. I’ve been playing 30 years. I can’t hear overdrive and distortion’s very clearly. I just run an OCD and a Jackson Ampworks. I can hear every nuance in a delay pedal and am an expert at that. I will take your word for this and try it

I like it ☺️

God damn bro your playing is sick best player on you tube hands down

Both channels seem to take anything put into it but if you should happen to do another video of this pedal, make sure you put both channels together so you can blow all our minds out!

I like this pedal alot on drive A with the glass setting on it

Nice tones amigo....

Got one. Pretty good. Wish it had 3 band EQ. For now I've gone back to two stacked Wampler Clarksdales (Wampler's tube screamer with 3 band EQ).

That sounds amazing. That might give my Wampler Plexi Drive Deluxe a run for its money.

It’s a killer pedal. I wasn’t super happy at home when I first tried it and then took it to a gig where it was absolute bliss. Not sure it can dethrone my Analogman King of Tone but...it’s a different animal.

As always your playing is fucking amazing

I’ve heard about this pedal, it’s pretty nice, I’ve move away from pedals right now,, there’s just too many and the market is saturated,it’s nice to have choices , but to me tone is always comes from the players hands/playing style touch , amp, &pickups , take care Matthew, you a phenomenal player

I am a huge fan of your clean tone Matthew. The other sounds you throw at us are killer too. But the clean , oh Hell yeah! ✌🐉💀👽🎸🎶🎵🌌🛸🧠

hey man im a big fan of yours

I really love your playing though. You're an amazing player.

Really appreciate your open and honest reviews! I have 4 kingtone pedals and love them. I actually prefer the blues power to the duellist for my overdrive tone. Duellist is great for copping others tones. Blues power is much less compressed, more transparent and open and dynamic. beautiful boost to gain pedal. That and a fuzz and you can cover it all. Love the channel and the playing! Cheers

The blues power is great also cause you can stack it with just about any od and it does wonders. I’ve tried it with my Jan Ray my zendrive and my Solo Dallas, klon, Ts10, bb, I’ve tried it with everything and it sounds great with either one of those pedals I just mentioned. It really is an amazing pedal. Ain’t many things out there that can not only boost but go into full with the eq options it has. The thing I like most about it is being able to get some of my super stubborn Amps to break up with out trying to dime the volume

Excellent review! I’m really wanting to add one to my board after this. Your gear is insane! How did you get so many cool guitars?

Look up to Matthew and love his channel awesome player and doesnt talk bulls**t

Damn you ! After watching this one I just bought mine on Reverb ahah

They both sounded great but for different styles. The SRV tube screamer side really worked with your playing! with some tweeking you will get that sounding great! I usually use a Boss Waza Blues Driver into Fender amps.

Sounds great.. I personally like side B 🙌

Drive A was my favorite. But overall awesome

I use a Boss GT8 and a Peavey special chorus amp. With this setup I run the amp on the clean side ( 3/4 to full dime on the volume and roll back the presence to about 10 o clock) This gives me pristine clean tones and when I hit it on the attack she breaks and responds just like glass. If you have ever owned a Peavey bandit then you know exactly what I'm talking about. They don't call them missippi Marshall's for nothing. I get all of the tone and half of the weight. With the gt8 I can get any tome that I want. Skinnard, bto, CCR, Sabraba Hedrix what ever I want it's awesome. I setup all my presets on my laptop using midi and I'm ready to rock on stage. The only thing that I would do different is replace the blue marvel speakers with a set of Black Widows. ..... 🤘❤🤘

Noiiice!

Its got some great tone! Def can here SRV in there! Nice bright chime at the end of the A side. Can here the heavy handed thicker string sound on that side. They both sound good. Very good pedal in my opinion. Looks user friendly too which is a plus. I know what you mean though sometimes its not good to just rely on pedals. Im always trying to get a good sound without but if one comes along like this one and helps with the sound you trying to get why not. My sound at the moment is coming through a mesa boogie dual rectifier with some slap back. Something about that sound to me is great! Dialed in at the moment. But my other fav sound is the spring reverb you get from a fender twin reverb or deluxe. Even a blues jr can get you there. Recently had my eye on the fender bass breaker amps. They sound really good! Always good stuff man! Killer jam too! Great vibrato! Rock on!!

Great sounding pedal that Matt, although I'm envious of you owning a 59 strat!

That tone's gnarly, broseph. Also, what kind of picks are you using?

Hey Matt, it's Don again, I love the Duallist, I have it on my board along with the Blues Power, the Octaland and the Fuzz. Jesse Davey pedals are fantastic.

@@BrianDonnelly68 it's all a matter of different colors for different songs. I play in a band with a harmonica playing singer, we play blues, swing, country, classic rock and surf instrumentals. I also use a wampler paisley, nobles odr-1, and an original ts808 for all of their various colors. The blues power is very transparent and enhances my amps and has less color than the other pedals and because of that, I use it the most.

Great upload. Good tones and good insight. Pedals are not everyone, man, Just because some of us have dinner table-sized boards, doesn't mean everyone has to. Honestly, I'd suggest you work with the SSS side a bit more. Maybe with the showman...? Could be interesting... Anyway, keep it up, dude. Love your work. Cheers

Yeah, I find I'm moving away from that tubescreamer thing, after using a broken one for a good decade before it finally said "no more!". I used it like a boost and have replaced it with two local built ones (I'm in Melbourne, Australia), listing them seems redundant, but I am anyway, I've swapped in a Hotcake (made in New Zealand, which is a little Australian insiders joke) as a clean boost as it's amazingly transparent, but it's tone control is so usable and I can compensate for how my old Fender is behaving/misbehaving, dialling in gain is really precise. For that more crunchy overdrive I have an amazing Klinger MK2, which as the name suggests is Tonebender MK2 clone, super Yardbirds/Beck tone thing going on, it can get a little crazy, but there's a sweet spot just before the crazy where it's big but the guitar and amp still retain their character. All part of the journey

The bluesbreaker pedal is always a nice pedal on its own and for boost, the pedal just got a personality and sound great boosting everything, nice little mid push IMHO

Interesting pedal. Would have liked to have seen more of the settings that you used for the sound you produced with this pedal. Others you may like pedal wise. Light speed. Is an awesome light or moderate overdrive. Its very organic normal driven tube sound. You can still hear the single strings ring out. Its just impressive for a pedal under $200. The other is Called an F56 pedal I believe its built by Caledonia. It has a sweet tweed sound and can make most amps sound almost as good as your 59 Bassman
