Tone King Royalist Preamp/Rack Amplifier

The Royalist Preamp Pedal captures the full spirit of Tone King's legendary Royalist MKIII amplifier — the company's most authentic take on the golden age of British tone. From the sweet, singing sensitivity of a JTM45, through the unmistakable growl of the Plexi, to the searing drive of the Super Lead — this high-voltage, tri-tube preamp pedal puts three decades of British rock history at your feet, without compromise.

Three genuine 12AX7 tubes running at proper high voltages deliver the touch sensitivity, harmonic complexity, and dynamic punch that no digital emulation can replicate. At the heart of it all is Tone King's proprietary Zero Watt Power Amp — a real phase inverter circuit powered by the third tube — capturing the feel of a cranked power section in complete silence.

Two fully independent channels each feature a three-position era voicing switch (1964 / 1967 / 1970), a FAT switch for a beefed-up low-end response, and an Ironman-style attenuator that unlocks true tube saturation at any volume. Two flavours, one pedal.

Built for the modern stage and studio: stereo balanced XLR outputs with ground lift, headphone output, 5-pin MIDI for up to 128 presets, USB-C for the Tone King Editor software, and 20 OwnHammer IRs with a 3-way IR selector per channel. Three eras of British tone. One extraordinary pedal.
