I was hoping it would be Gilmour in a Box too - it isn't. I just find the TubeDriver really isn't too useful. And yes, I'm running a strat through a vintage Hiwatt. Will the 3 knob Bk get me close to that sound Thanks. I know I like the sound of the Butler and chandler 4 knob but I just don't have 300 or more to shell out on one right now. Also I think the 4 knob plugs into the wall 120v and the three knob I think runs off of 9v. I know it's going to sound wrong, but I use a FullDrive 2 for all the lower gain stuff, and a ToneBone Hot British for the high gain stuff. The 3 knob just has one know for EQ and the four knob says high and low. Your money is better served getting a very nice Muff or a different tasty od. I guess what I'm saying here is it is, in my mind, in no way essential at all. In other words, it's on for perhaps 5% of the total show. Personally, Money and the intro to Time are the only songs I even use it on. I find that the pedal sounds _EXACTLY_ like the solo from Money - so if that's the only sound you want, it's a great way to spend three hundred bucks I find it's a bit of a one trick pony - I can never lower the gain quite as much as I'd like (I even emailed them at Chandler or wherever, they said use a 12AT7 - I did, no dice). Once you get it dialed in, though, it's pretty nice. Let me try to explain.īasically, it's like everyone says - it is very hard to get the right sound out of it. It's kind of good and not good all rolled into one. I have an original Chandler Tube Driver (duh, I'm in a Floyd tribute act ).
