VHT: V-Drive (Part 1)

New pedal; VHT's V-Drive. As I am not pedal-inclined, I wasn't aware it's new for 2011, bought it because it does the Tubescreamer voicing but has other clipping modes ranging from ordinary to FAT, putting it simply. Also, there's some kinda voodoo in here as it sounds very convincing in its tube emulation. So there we have it, enough reasons (for me) for purchase. 

The other intriguing feature in store is the Voltage variant control. If you wish for this pedal to sound like it's running on a semi-depleted battery, just mess with this knob. Maybe Eric Johnson can now leave his battery be in this box & just turn the knob. But doubt if he would want one, anyway...
