Two Princes


"Two Princes" by Spin Doctors is an alternative rock track from the 1991 album Pocket Full Of Kryptonite. One of the band's signature hits from New York City, it reached No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became a defining song of the early 1990s rock scene. For electric guitarists, it is an excellent study in groove-driven rhythm playing, featuring a tight, bluesy riff that is approachable for intermediate players while remaining satisfying to perform.

  • The main riff is built around a repeating chord-based groove — great for practicing tight, consistent rhythm guitar technique.
  • "Two Princes" peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the Spin Doctors' highest-charting single.
  • The song appears on Pocket Full Of Kryptonite, the debut album that established the Spin Doctors' blues-influenced alternative rock sound.

Fender Stratocaster

Spin Doctors use the Stratocaster's single-coil pickups for bright, articulate tones that cut through their funk-rock grooves without distortion. The warm-bright character and clear pick attack let their percussive playing style shine in a full band mix.

The Telecaster's sharp, cutting single-coil tone gives Spin Doctors definition on rhythm parts and punchy lead work that defines their signature sound. Its direct tonal response rewards precise muting and picking technique, core elements of their approach.
