DRV - Greyscale

The 1981 Inventions DRV is an analog distortion and preamp boost pedal housed in a steel enclosure, designed for versatile drive tones. It features two independent circuits: one for distortion and one for preamp boost, running at 18V via an internal voltage regulator to provide increased headroom. The pedal uses high-grade components, including Switchcraft 11 open frame jacks for reliable connectivity and a soft-touch relay-based true bypass switching system for quiet, dependable operation. The DRV distortion pedal offers variable gain ranges, from subtle boost to saturated distortion, with a midrange-focused EQ response. All controls are optimized for precise adjustment of level, gain, and tone, supporting a range of classic and modern sounds. **Features:** - Analog distortion and preamp boost pedal with dual-circuit design - Operates internally at 18V for improved headroom and clarity - True bypass switching with soft-touch relay for silent operation - Switchcraft 11 open frame jacks for durable signal path - All-steel enclosure for durability - Standard 9V DC power input (center negative; power supply not included)
