Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Tone City King of Blues is a mini-format overdrive aimed, as the name suggests, at blues-oriented drive sounds — the lower-gain, amp-pushing end of the spectrum rather than heavy saturation. Tone City build compact pedals at accessible prices, and this model has been revised into a V2 version sold alongside it. Independent coverage of the original is limited, so this description does not assert control layout or circuit specifics.
The Tone City King of Blues V2 is the revised version of the company's blues-oriented mini overdrive. Version updates in this category typically adjust gain range, EQ or noise performance rather than replacing the circuit. Independent coverage establishing what changed between V1 and V2 is limited, so buyers comparing the two should confirm the differences with the seller rather than assume the V2 is simply better.
