Warm Audio Throne Of Tone Dual Overdrive Pedal

Dual-Sided British-Amp-Inspired Overdrive Pedal

Two Sides, Two Classic Pedals, Legendary Amp Tones

The Throne Of Tone is a tribute to two highly sought-after overdrive pedals based on a classic late-1960s amplifier recording. Decades after Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton reshaped tone chasing, a now-classic amp-in-a-box pedal set a new standard for transparent overdrive. A decade later, a modified dual-sided boutique OD further transformed guitar overdrive. Used by artists like John Mayer, Gary Clark Jr, and John Petrucci, these original pedals blend with any rig or transform clean tones completely. Offering both legendary circuits in one unit with unprecedented combinations, Throne Of Tone delivers vintage tonal bliss with essential controls always accessible.

Dual Voicings, Unrivaled Combos, Rig-Ready Controls

Throne Of Tone delivers unmatched control and timeless tone. Each side recreates the unique character of both original pedals with boutique gain and drive mods. The voicing selector switches between “Blues” (early classics) and “King” (boutique favorite). A gain selector adds the boutique high/low gain mod, while drive mode switches between OD, Distortion, or Boost. Each side includes a presence control for shaping upper mids. Global voltage doubling increases headroom, and FX Order Swap instantly changes pedal sequence. A top-mounted send/return jack allows inserting external pedals between sides.

Applications

Controls, Controls, Controls

The WA-TOT covers all options in this “breaking” style of overdrive. Controls span both vintage and boutique styles with external access to classic mod features.

Two Voicings, Two Op-Amp Flavors

Most of the WA-TOT circuit path stays the same regardless of “King” or “Blues,” but the op-amps shape each voice. “King” uses JRC4580; “Blues” uses TL072. Differences are most noticeable in Boost mode.

Premium Components for Clipping & Power

Premium clipping diodes provide cascading distortion across multiple modes. The dual voltage doubler adds headroom in boost mode without internal modifications.

Hand-tested, Elite Build Quality

Every WA-TOT unit is hand-inspected and tested at Warm HQ in Austin, TX by real musicians and engineers.
