Diva Drive : wow

5 years ago

Got it today. Tried it and thankfully it sounded real good.

I am a long time fan of the Voodoo lab Sparkle drive which is for me the king of drives since its versatile. But its old and heavy used over the years. So I wanted a sort of new trustfull drive with possibilities. Basically I love clean sort of boost. The Sparkle does that and sounds warm. Very warm...but also colours the sound of the guitar.

Well the drive does that also but only in the mid or bass boost setting. But is also opens the sound more. In normal mode it sounds as transparant as clear water.

So this one for me isreally cool. Depending on the vernue I always be able to dial in the sound that works for me (instead of me working for theright sound). So instead of changing pedals for adjusting towards a good sound this Diva Drive is able to get it right with only twiddling the knobs. The mix knob really helps with that.

And....its more touch sensitive and dynamic than the Bluesbreaker (Version I) that I still have and sometimes use.

So, if it is sturdy enough, its gonna be a keeper probably.

When I plugged it in I instandly had this 'WOW' feeling.
