#Bk butler tube driver 911 driver
I haven’t tried it with a Marshall yet, but I will this week in the studio! With the Fender amps it felt like the Tube Driver responded like a Marshall in a box.The place for all things related to guitar pedals. If you want it heavier for songs like Echoes or Stuff off of Wish You Were Here, adding a Big Muff in conjunction with the Tube Driver will get a much more refined aggressive guitar tone like David’s. I was able to get my favorite David Gilmour solo tones very easily with this combination! I found that if you use a delay with just the Tube Driver and a Stratocaster you get most of David’s overdriven tones. The Strat, Tube Driver, Bassman combo won out in my opinion. I also briefly experimented with a Mesa Boogie channel switching 1x12 combo. So far, remember I’ve only owned one of these for a week so my tastes are ever evolving with it, my favorite combinations have been Stratocasters or Les Paul Specials through Fender Amplifiers like the Twin Reverb, Tweed 1959 Bassman, Super Reverb, and Brown Vibroverb with 2x10s. So far, I find the pedal to be extremely musical and can get a wide range of sounds from the pedal depending on what guitar and amp combination I use. It also conveniently has its own three prong plug power supply hardwired into the unit itself so you don’t have to worry about how you are going to power this beast! Hi Lo (knobs similar to EQ knobs on vintage Fender Amplifiers that control how much highs or lows the affected signal has), and Tube Drive (how hard you are driving the single preamp tube inside the pedal). The pedal features four control knobs labeled from left to right: Out Level (the level the effect is sending out to the amplifier), E.Q. On both sides of the unit there are three air vents that help the unit stay cool.
The pedal measures 7.25”L x 4”W x 3.5”D and weighs 2.5 lbs.! That’s pretty huge for a single pedal! But if you think about it, the pedal needs to be that large to fit the tube inside the unit, as well having enough circulation for the tube to cool.
The pedal lives in a substantially large, custom-made steel enclosure with the transformer sitting inside the chassis. With it’s strange chassis color, highly colorful knobs, and LED bulbs signaling what’s happening it looks like something Mr.

The Tube Drive looks like something off of the original Star Trek television series from the 1960s. This can lead to a whole other realm of experimentation for your guitar playing! The really cool part of the pedal’s design is that you can switch tubes inside the unit to give the pedal different styles of distortion. By starving the tube of voltage and controlling what low voltage it operates at, you can force the tube to distort at much lower volume levels than what is traditionally possible in guitar amplifiers.
Inside the pedal, the tube is set to work at only 12 volts (much less working voltage than what tubes are hit with inside a guitar tube amplifier) in what is referred to as “Starved Plate” voltage. The IC chip overdrives your guitar’s signal and then sends it to the tube to “color the sound” identically to tube overdrive. If you know the sound of turning your tube amplifier up and getting the tubes to sag and create distortion, then you’ll understand the general concept of this pedal.
Basically, when you run your electric guitar through a Tube Driver to your amplifier of choice, it is essentially acting as if you are running through a small overdriven tube amplifier and sending its overdriven tube signal to your guitar amplifier.
