B.K Butler Tube Driver Test

A short test of my B.K Butler Tube Driver, a wonderful overdrive.
The amp is setted to bedroom level.
Listen to the sound, and don't pay too much attention to the guitar playing !

What amp are you playing through?



[Stratocasteph]

@astro2069

Weber 6A20, a kind of Deluxe Reverb

Can you please please tell me the specs on the adapter for this? I bought one of these, and it didn't come with an adapter and I had no clue it was going to be so difficult.

I thought buying one of those OneSpots would solve my problem, but I don't think the pedal is getting enough juice. It crackles, barely passes signal, and sounds like a bad fuzz pedal. The voltage and ampage should be written right on the adapter near the other compliance information.

Thanks in advance! I'm desperate!

@blondiebabae I use an adapter for the plug that I bought on ebay.

When your order the pedal to Butler, you specify if you want a 240V or 110V version. Mine is a 240V version, but the plug has the US format.

first, you must to learn play guitar...

[Stratocasteph]

Yes, I'll think about it.

[tnleverett]

I got one too...now I just need a guitar! LOL

[Macconator2010]

Floyd fan I see. For epic solos use the driver to boost a big muff. It sounds awesome! Great pedal buy, I wish I had one. I believe gilmour uses these himself.

[RyanWehr]

Think I heard a little another brick in the wall pt 2 solo.

Just got my TD in the mail! I like set the gain to about a little more than halfway and push it with a Ts-808 silver with the overdrive set at about half. creamy, juicy saturated lead tones!!

[CREWDOG289]

@2010juanpablo SOUNDS GOOD TO ME!!!! thumbs up if this guy sounds good

[pfloydguy]

Try it with a T-Rex Tonebug sustainer in front.

Hi, in this video what strat you are using?

I can see by your videos that you have a plenty of strat's,

I'm portugese and i'm wondering to buy one strat and i'm in doubt about the Mark knopler strat, the new ones american deluxe ash, or a vintage 62 reissue.

I wanto to play some blues, and also wanto to get a creamy tone like eric clapton have,, to play some rock too,

Wich strat do you tell me to choose?

Thanks for your help.

when were early BK Butler Tube Drivers born? in seventies or in eighties? ..and is there a code number, anything, in order to discover about when was mine born ?

[bgtocak]

@taurus1269 ...with the "bias" , there is no a difference at all. you just get an extra potentiometer that gives you option to adjust the tube. I have the bias one, and It doesn't sound good when tube volume is down, sounds very fuzzy and weak. If I knew this before I would never buy the bias one, and would go with the cheapest one. But it's to late now :)
