Heir Apparent (Analogman Prince of Tone)

Released With Helix Version 2.80
Heir Apparent, the Helix model of a Analogman Prince of Tone

Recorded using a Les Paul with Burstbucker pickups into a Twin Reverb model with the normal input. The overdrive pedal and amp are set at default settings. A touch of reverb added for depth.

The Prince of Tone is the same as half of the King of Tone, with an external MODE switch standard. It is the same as the KOT with HIGHER GAIN option, so you can use the full range of the DRIVE knob and it has a little more drive at the top than a normal gain KOT. The DISTORTION mode is improved though, for a louder, stronger distortion sound.

Metallica Black

But wait, it's the wrong amp! Yes, but it sounds right. Play with the EQ block to adjust to your taste, this sounded slightly brighter than the album tone but I liked it that way. Good for Metallica's Black Album tones, which are of course layered amps in the album. I used a Gibson explorer with stock pickups to create the preset.
