Review: Great tones for price point, transparent mid tone heaven.
Review: The Joyo King of Kings (Dual Crunch) is a dual overdrive pedal, meant to give an analog sounding distortion. It can be set for very subtle overdrive (distorts only when playing more aggressively), or full overdrive, where the lead guitar has a very beautiful violin-like tone and sustain. I like all the adjustment options that come with this pedal, so you can customize the tone just to your liking. The construction, and even the packaging, are top-notch. Seems to be low noise also.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this pedal come with the power supply or adapter?**
A: No, both are not included. I highly recommend JOYO 9V adapter and power supply with noise reduction technology. Because an incompatible power supply may cause the noise, pedal damage, can't turn on, powered but can't work properly.

**Q: Usage Suggestions about "terrible Sound"?**
A: 1.Unreasonable knob settings: such as setting all knobs to the maximum without understanding how to adjust them.

**Q: Usage Suggestions**
A: When EQ and Gain are set to the maximum(80%-100%): Background noise will amplify with gain inscrasing. It is a normal occurrence and not a fault of pedal. It can be resolved by patiently reducing the EQ or Gain.

**Q: How to check for noise coming from other devices?**
A: First, please use a professional pedal power supply, because noise issues caused by incompatible power supplies are very common!

**Q: What should we do if the pedal does not work?or other problem**
A: First, please read the instructions carefully. Then, check that the power supply is suitable. Secondly, check whether the product packaging is damaged.
