How to unlock the Tone Peddler achievement in Rocksmith - Definitive Guide

Effect Pedals are unlocked after every gig (that I've played so far) as well as getting 70,000 in any version of a song. That means if there are 3 versions of a song, you only need to reach 70000 on one version of that song in order to unlock the effect. There is only one effect per song.

Yes, the DLC time saver pack will also unlock this achievement but I wouldn't advise it, as I unlocked this while only rank 7 and it isn't that hard to do with some practice.

Good luck

I also unlocked this at level 7. There were only 32 tone pedals unlocked but also 19 authentic tones after the event where I got it. The achievement may depend on both. You can check what you have unlocked in the Amp section.

Half way through level 10 it stoped giving me pedals. I thought I could level up just playing master events and receive this cheevo but no... I have to now level up more than a few tunes to get this

You can actually tell which songs will unlock pedals for you. When looking at your score, there will be a picture of a pedal at the 70k mark if there is an unlock available for that song.

You actually might have to occasionally play multiple arrangements of a single song. For example, "Go With The Flow" has one unlockable tone each for its chord and single note arrangements.

Also, bass guitar tones appear to count towards this achievement as well. When it popped for me, I had only collected about thirty guitar tones.

There are 34 normal pedals and 27 rare pedals in the game. Songs that use a pedal will unlock if you score 70,000+ on any of its arrangements. You unlock a rare pedal each time you earn an encore.

Getting 70k points on a song (in any arrangement) will earn you a pedal. Do this on fifty different songs/arrangements in order to earn fifty pedals. By the time you've gotten most of the other achievements, getting 70k will be incredibly easy, so if this is hard at first don't fret.

Tone is a set of equipment and settings to achieve a specific guitar sound. The game comes with 63 tones by default, which are unlocked by gaining RSP points (70,000 points from playing a song unlocks a tone, and sometimes in some other cases). List of tones passed off as songs. The set of tone equipment includes various pedals (pedals), amps (amplifiers) and cabinet. When a tone is opened, the corresponding equipment included in it is revealed.

The game comes standard with 11 amps, 12 cabinets and 50 pedals:

  • 9 Delay Pedals
  • 15 Distortion Pedals
  • 4 Dynamic Pedals
  • 8 Filter Pedals
  • 24 Modulation Pedals
Despite the fact that the description of the trophy suggests opening 50 pedals, in fact, the total of all unlocked equipment is taken into account.

You can select equipment for setting the tone for performance and see the number of open equipment in the Amp Menu . There, by going to any of the three tones, you can see how much of what is open.

Purchasing the "Tone Designer Time Saver Pack" DLC will unlock this trophy immediately ($5), but there is no particular point in this, the trophy opens quite quickly during the game. For example, I needed to unlock 18 tones out of 63 in order to get the trophy.
