![]() ![]() Pete Cornish will give you chapter and verse why they are shite and what they do in terms of tone suck when in a chain but switched off. ![]() Jester does basically the same, but about 4 times better.

Not sure if you all saw the thread over on TGP but BK Butler is making some TUber Drivers again in limited quantities. If anyone wants mine, email me this is one of the staple Gilmour pedals, and it's still a very good pedal, yet I think they're crap compared to the Kingsley Jester, which is in another league.

Thanks to his early endorsement as the creator of his famous 'Violin Tone', my TUBE DRIVER has become a standard of many pro musicians the world over. I feel that it's easier to get the "violin" tone with that particular tube. I designed it in the early 1980s and Eric Johnson was one of my early customers.

Get a feel for the pedal with that tube but IMO I heard a DRAMATIC improvement in mine with a NOS JAN 12AU7. The tube inside appears to be a JJ ECC83 - is this a 12AX7? It arrived today!! I am looking at it now in my office - can't wait to get home and crank it up. ![]()
