Yeap.

I've got the B.K. Butler Tube Driver, and that has a tube in it too. It's a fantastic pedal. This one has got a tube in it but instead of starving the tube to create distortion like on the Tube Driver, it gives it heaps of power to create distortion, like on an amp. I really like the be-od, so thought that I'd give it a go.

Cool man! yeah i read the problem with generic tube pedals is they can't make enough power to properly juice the tube. I've got the Laney IRT Pulse which does a similar thing but doesn't have that sweet Friedman mojo

A pound of each: AWG 42 & 43 - should be a few 'BadLads' in there :D

So my LR Baggs DI has apparently departed Auckland International and is in transit to me according to USPS tracking on the 20th. NZ Post say it hasn't entered their system yet - it's still in Chicago according to them, and Customs don't want to know about it. Who the hell do I call here??
Loving it so far
