DRV BASS MOD

NEW GERMANIUM UPDATE!!!

While I've only made a few of these, the overwhelming feedback from bass players near and far is that, it's freaking great. 

This is good for an aggressive bass sound. Not insanely gainy, but definitely punches, has a nice mid kick.

Will include a BASS MOD sticker for use on the pedal (lol)

This newest circuit is built on the DRv2 platform, and I am very happy with how it sounds!

Ok, so I’ve not made this an official release, but I was messing around with this circuit for a buddy, and tried it with GERMANIUM diodes, and man, it is awesome sounding on bass guitar. Really rips, punches, etc

Using NOS 1N34A germanium diodes, are these the magical ones? You decide. Is this a mythical pedal? This is an extremely “professional” variation of the DRV, and the first variation to offer this spec. Just to be clear, this will not make the DRV circuit sound “more like another pedal”, but is a great sounding variation, and I think of it as a nice little homage. Straight class. This is only a tribute.

Comes with a printed zip pouch for the pedal, which can be used for all sorts of things! It also includes several 1981 Inventions stickers, and a limited edition hand drawn DRV manual.

Runs on 9v standard (boss style) power, the germanium diodes are best suited for 12v or less.

Battery clip or power supply is not included. An isolated power supply is recommended.
