HT-DRIVE

The Blackstar HT-DRIVE is a tube overdrive pedal featuring dual cascaded, high voltage, triode valve stages that deliver gain from warm boost to screaming valve saturation. It is equipped with a unique 'A-Class' tone control that cuts the fizz without making the backed-off tone sound dull and lifeless.
