DIY Tube Overdrive Sound Demo.
My first DIY Tube Overdrive made with 12AX7, ordinary DC-9V power supply, with a beautifully Aluminium Pedal Box.

I really like the concept if for no other reason than this: Preamps are SO dependent upon the tubes in them. Now here is one where the tube can be changed in a few seconds.. This is very convenient. I like this alot!!!!

How did you record this? It sounds decent, but a little flat-- I'm assuming you did it directly to a DI box? Perhaps a SS amp?

I can hear the potential of the pedal, something just sounds dead in it.

Thanks for your opinion, I will try to record a new video

0:41 you can clearly see it's a PUBE overdrive!

I thought I read Pube Overdrive. Sounded a little teenaged. =)

Way cool!! position of the tube most impractical :D

[kiyotewolf]

It's a foot pedal? Why is the tube so unprotected, I mean, a little shield around it, what if you stomp the tube itself?

[DrLubitel]

What kind of power supply do you use. I mean, I don't see any transformers in the pictures, and I can't imagine how a 9V battery can power a tube...

@karlhouseknecht crank it and go for the "Revolution" tone?

[gabe13311]

@brett2525 GOD HAS A JOB HAHA

[GuitarRazze]

This sounds bad, you need a cab simulator for this if youre running the preamp straight to the computer!

loop up "Matsumin's Valve Caster". Although Matsumin uses a 12au7 (lower gain) i'm sure that with a little tweeking of his design, the 12ax7 (higher gain) could be used.
