The DLS Effects Reckless Driver is a versatile distortion/overdrive pedal designed to deliver a wide range of tones. It features a 2-channel design with a "normal" channel and a higher-gain "boost" channel, each with its own volume, gain, and mix controls. The pedal also includes a shared EQ section with bass and treble knobs, as well as an attack toggle switch for adjusting the edge and brightness of the sound.
The Reckless Driver is known for its dynamic sensitivity, allowing players to achieve anything from transparent overdrive to gritty distortion. It offers the ability to blend clean signal with the mix knobs, providing a broad palette of tonal options. The pedal's touch sensitivity enables players to add texture to their playing based on their attack intensity.
Additionally, the Reckless Driver features internal trim pots for input stage and distortion input stage, and uses high-quality components such as Amphenol jacks and 3P3T switching. The pedal is designed to be highly responsive and feels like an extension of the player's hands and instrument.
Overall, the DLS Effects Reckless Driver is praised for its tube-like sounds, wide range of color options, and great dynamics, making it a valuable addition to any guitarist's setup.
