Looking like the prototype of the MXR FET Driver

Re: What is Joe's orange pedal?

What's a FET Driver? I have not heard of this. Does Joe have a new pedal coming out?

The tube in a BK Butler Tube Driver can be substituted for some FET circuitry to give the same/similar tone without using the tube thus cutting cost and the size of the unit.

I'm hoping this pedal get's released at the NAMM show, I like the look of the original FET Driver on Joe's older board (same paint job and coloured knobs as the original TD) better though, I hope they release both.

Re: What is Joe's orange pedal?

I hope this comes out soon. I've been looking at different schematics to build a Tube Driver with the Fet circuitry and I'm honestly just too lazy to build it.

Oh nice the Eric Johnson pedal! I'll be on the lookout for this.

Re: What is Joe's orange pedal?

Interesting. I wonder if it will be released.

I'm guessing maybe at Winter NAMM?

I like how Joe has stuck with the copper theme. We can start referring to it as Joe's copper tone. Hahaha.

While waiting for more, the Vibrolux beneath looks great smile

Re: What is Joe's orange pedal?

There was update about this pedal on The Gear Page from a member who spoke to Jeorge Tripps, apparently it's not being released at NAMM and when/if it is released it won't be in copper as that's a custom finish just for Joe. Lots of information contained in this thread http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showth … ?t=1147878
