"I designed the SEX DRIVE pedal to fulfill the very particular needs of good friend Charlie Sexton (Bob Dylan, ARC Angels, David Bowie, Grammy winning producer, all around musician). The goal was to build a “clean-boost” pedal that would supply additional bottom end and sustain when needed. The pedal would have to provide a boost that would not alter the original quality of the amplifiers natural tone. Most important, was to not add a “nasal” tone like the other pedals in his effects graveyard. The result was the SEX DRIVE pedal. Though it wasn't my intention to go into production of effect pedals, the demand has been so overwhelming I found I had no choice".

"This is, I believe, the most adaptable distortion/fuzz pedal on the market. Definitely not a one trick pony! Though the inspiration for this pedal came from a legendary tone, it’s versatility is endless. The controls required to obtain that classic tone also allow you to get any other tone you may dream up."

The Mucho Boosto pedal is a medium gain overdrive pedal built around the Sex Drive Circuit. The Tone control on the Mucho is much more active than that of the Sex Drive. There are 2 settings for "Thin" & "Fat" voicings. This pedal is great for players that desire a compressed overdriven sound.

*NOTE - The new smaller version of the Mucho Boosto has been modified from the old version. The new Mucho Boosto has 100% more Level than the old version, as well as 25% more Gain.

What is a Zia Drive? A very tight low compression overdrive pedal designed to be that perfect rhythm guitar box.

If you hate the feeling of sag in your fingers this is the box for you. It takes your 6L6 or 6V6 amp and gives it the chime of an EL84. If you have an EL84 amp it will boost that bottom end and make it sing at lower levels.

Early 70's Stones fans will love the ZIA!!
