LBD2 Little Brute Drive 2
The EWS Little Brute Drive 2 (LBD2) is a delightfully compact distortion pedal that packs a serious sonic punch. Designed by the sonic sorcerers at Engineering Work Store, this mini marvel offers guitarists a versatile palette of rich, dynamic distortion tones. The secret sauce lies in the LBD2's unique power supply capabilities. By flipping a hidden internal switch, you can crank the operating voltage from the standard 9V to a beefy 16V. This voltage boost opens up the pedal's headroom, delivering a wider dynamic range and a more responsive, less compressed feel under your fingers. Crank the gain and let those harmonics sing! But don't let the LBD2's small stature fool you - this pedal can deliver everything from smooth, creamy overdrive to face-melting fuzz. The simple but effective controls allow you to dial in the perfect amount of grit and gain to complement your playing style and guitar. Plugging this pocket-sized powerhouse into your rig is like unlocking a new dimension of tone. Rumor has it that the LBD2 was a secret weapon in the studio for legendary shredder Yngwie Malmsteen, who praised its ability to maintain clarity and articulation even at the most extreme levels of distortion. Whether you're chasing vintage rock tones or modern metal mayhem, the Little Brute Drive 2 is a must-have addition to any discerning guitarist's pedalboard.
