BK BUTLER TUBE DRIVER 3 KNOB FOR SALE DRIVERS

THE T.D.752 IS INPRISTINE CONDITION FOR $150.00, SO I GUESS MY REAL QUESTION IS PEDAL OR THE T.D.752 E.S.(?), I GOT TO SAY IKIND OF LIKE THELOOKS OF THE752 ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS TO NOT BE A VERY POPULAR вЂњOLDERвЂќ AMP?, I AM LIKING THE HYBYRID AMPS, THE ONES WITHOUT ALL THE вЂњMODELLINGвЂќ FEATURES, JUST THE RAW POWER AND THE MIX OF TRANSISTORS AND TUBES.

HELLO BJORNвЂ™,IWAS IN A PAWN-SHOP AND RAN ACROSS A вЂњTWEEDвЂќ TUBE WORKS вЂ“ TUBE DRIVER T.D.752-E.S., IS THIS BASICALLY A TUBE DRIVER WITH AN AMP? IS IT WORTH BUYING AND LIKE MAYBE USING IN TANDEM WITH MY TWEED PEAVEY CLASSIC 30? I PLAY MOSTLY CLASSIC 60s 70s ROCK, I THOUGHT THAT THE HEAD WOUULD BE KIND OF BULKY BUT STILL A GOOD PLATFORM FOR THE CLASSIC 30 AND MAYBE ONE OF MY 2X12 CABS LOADED WITH MESA-BOOGIE BLACK SHADOW SPEAKERS? I DO NOT REALLY RUN MUCH IN THE WAY OF PEDALS, I KIND OF GO FOR THE SPARE SET-UP REVERB AND SOME OVERDRIVE. Share this post: on Twitter on Facebook on Google+

It also works extremely well as a booster for the more demanding distortions like the Big Muff. The BK Tube Driver is an excellent overdrive ideal DavidГўв‚¬в„ўs 70Гўв‚¬в„ўs and present tones although I have no trouble getting great PULSE tones as well. The Tube Driver is designed for bigger tube amps so if youГўв‚¬в„ўre mostly playing at home on a smaller rig or transistor amps IГўв‚¬в„ўd go for something a bit more versatile like a Boss BD-2 or Ibanez/Maxon Tube Screamer. Likewise, expect the 12AU7 to sound a bit muffled at first before it breaks in and Гўв‚¬Е“opens upГўв‚¬Вќ nicely. All tubes, whether itГўв‚¬в„ўs your amp or a pedal, need some time before they reach their potential so donГўв‚¬в„ўt freak out if the 12AX7 blows your head off the first time you try it. Keep in mind that if you do decide to replace the 12AX7 tube you should give the pedal some time to break in.

IвЂ™m using my black Strat with CS69 pickups > Gollmer Composus > BK Tube Driver > Boss DD2 > Sound City amp. вЂ“ This a clip of my band Airbag and the song Prelude. I replaced the 12AX7 with a 12AU7 (JJ Electronic) for an overall warmer tone with more compression and a much wider range from powerful clean volume boost to soaring overdrive. It depends on what tone youГўв‚¬в„ўre looking for but it has a very narrow clean response and it can be a bit boomy as well. The 2006 BK model is delivered with a 12AX7 tube which is a bit too aggressive for my taste. The BK has a bit more presence and a generally more aggressive tone, although this can to some extent be Гўв‚¬Е“controlledГўв‚¬Вќ by replacing the stock tube. Tonewise, I would perhaps place the Chandler somewhere between a Tube Screamer and a BK Tube Driver. The Chandler Tube Driver (in DavidГўв‚¬в„ўs rig from 1993-2006) has a slightly warmer tone than the new BK Butler model (in DavidГўв‚¬в„ўs rig from 2006).

David uses two Tube Drivers in his rig but you could easily substitute one of them with a Power Boost for a hint of that vintage flavour. The main difference is the dynamics and warmth youГўв‚¬в„ўll get from the tube in the Tube Driver but my experience is that with the gain all the way up the Colorsound manages to stay more focused and compressed. They both got that powerful transparent tone with thundering lows and a crisp top. The Colorsound Power Boost and Tube Driver are very similar, which may be one of the reasons why David chose the Tube Driver. The pedal was also an essential part of his tones on 2006 On an Island album an tour. The classic Colorsound Power Boost was DavidГўв‚¬в„ўs main overdrive unit in the 70Гўв‚¬в„ўs and after some experimentation with different units in the 80Гўв‚¬в„ўs he settled with the Tube Driver during the Division Bell sessions in 1993-94. Ever since 1994Гўв‚¬в„ўs Division Bell heГўв‚¬в„ўs been using the Tube Driver as his main overdrive unit and itГўв‚¬в„ўs been one of my favourites for the last couple of years. David is often associated with his lead tones but heГўв‚¬в„ўs a master creating the sweetest overdrive tones too.
