Analogwise Pedals
The Driver MK II
You're looking at the second iteration of The Driver by Analogwise Pedals. It's a low-to-moderate gain germanium fuzz - for your mellow needs, placed somewhere in between a fuzz and an overdrive, sound-wise.
The Driver employs two boost stages, made with authentic, NOS germanium transistors. I myself tore the seal off the cardboard box they came in, hand-dated to early 1980's. The first stage sports a bias control - it's the "boost" knob. Turn it all the way left, pump up the gain, boost the low end (tone knob to the left), select your bridge pickup, and get ready for that tin-horn-through-megaphone tone. Turn the boost knob clockwise, and get this baby going. Low gain, high boost, mid volume, put it in front of a cranked tube amp, and let the smile never wash off your face. The Driver will give you the most organic tone you've ever heard.
The pedal is a mid-gain type. Looking for something to give you that death metal tone in a box? Keep looking. It goes from a warm (or cold) clean boost to a well defined overdrive / mellow fuzz.
The pedal is hand made top to bottom. And I mean hand made. I designed the circuit, the PCB for it, the enclosure, hand etched the top plate, hand painted it… you get the idea. Not just another Chinese Tube Screamer clone put in a nice box.
