Wrecker Drive

From the vendor

Massive distortion for all your chug and djent needs. The original of this pedal comes in a 1590BB enclosure to accommodate a post-boost on a second footswitch. If you want that, head to the linked kit at the bottom of the page. This version eliminates the boost, keeping things tight in a 1590B. NOTE: you may get some squealing on the last bit of the gain pot turn unless you have a buffer in front of this pedal. If you're not happy with that, please don't buy the kit. Huge gain that is said to resemble the sound of a 5150 amp (not heard one - wouldn't know). Great tone section with a mids control that scoops them right out of existance for a really heavy sound. Don't write this off as a one-whack wonder though. Turn the gain down a bit and fiddle with the EQ and you have a vast range of tone to play with. Probably the only distortion you'd need. Add the voicing switch into the equation (Hard or Brutal) and you have a complete package. We've added the option to include a charge pump daughterboard to run the circuit at 18V from your 9V supply for extra headroom if that floats your tonal boat. NOTE: the charge pump option cannot be combined with the OptoPuss bypass. Pot spacing is 17.5mm - take that into consideration when choosing knobs. The pots have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs. If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page. Partial kit: PCBs, all board-mounted components depending on selected options (not footswitches), pots. Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED. Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included. Builds are only available with full kits including enclosure and vertical-mount pots. Please choose appropriate knobs.
