The RD Compact Hot Rod is the latest in the RevivalDRIVE lineage and it packs huge, hot-rodded amp tones into a compact enclosure. Taking inspiration from the legendary amp techs of the ‘70s and ‘80s, we have taken our RevivalDRIVE Compact pedal and pushed it to its limits - more gain, more sustain
and more aggression.

The RD Compact Hot Rod recreates the entire signal path of a classic, modified valve amp using all-analogue transistor circuitry, right down to the push-pull output stage and specially designed power supply which introduces just the right amount of “sag”. This super-realistic pedal not only replicates the
sounds but also the dynamics and feel of coveted hot-rodded amps.

KEY FEATURES:

  • Unabridged valve amp-style signal path recreated in all-analogue electronics
  • Class-A preamp stage with realistic, “hot-rodded” amp gain-staging
  • Full control of tone, dynamic response and distortion characteristics
  • Wide gain range, from clean to full-on saturation
  • Powerful Post-Drive EQ tailors the pedal’s voicing to suit any amp
  • Premium components throughout
  • Designed and built in England

CONTROLS:

  • GAIN: Like the Volume knob on a non-master volume amp – increasing the GAIN will gradually increase
  • overdrive in the emulated amp circuit.
  • OUTPUT: Simply an output level control – this will not affect the tone or overdrive of the pedal.
  • MORE/PRES: Alters negative feedback in the emulated amp circuit, affecting not only the presence and
  • brightness but also the transition into overdrive.
  • HIGHS: Adjusts the Treble and Mids in the emulated amp circuit. This will affect the tone and the
  • character of the overdrive. Fully counterclockwise, this control emulates the sound of a Marshall with its
  • tone controls set flat. Sweeping to 12 o’clock gives you a cranked, hot-rodded Plexi, through to a
  • cranked Fender-style tone with the HIGHS knob fully clockwise.
  • LOWS: Adjusts the Bass in the emulated amp circuit. This will affect the tone and character of the
  • overdrive. High settings will result in a thick, raspy overdrive tone with a more vintage character. Low
  • settings will be tight and defined, like a classic hot-rodded Plexi.
  • BLEND: Turning the control counter-clockwise from maximum will begin to introduce some of your clean
  • guitar signal. As highly overdriven sounds don’t blend too well with clean tones, the BLEND control also
  • reduces gain in the pedal as the clean signal is blended in.
  • POST-DRIVE EQ: This innovative output filter tailors the sound of the RD Compact Hot Rod to suit any
  • amp. Choose from three filter settings, then fine tune to exactly match your rig with the Adjust control.

CONNECTIONS:

The RD Compact Hot Rod has a high impedance input and its output level will suit typical amp inputs, power amp inputs and line inputs. Power using a 9VDC 2.1mm centre-negative adaptor delivering at least 100mA. Voltage rails are increased internally for high headroom.
