The Rust Driver by HAO is a distortion pedal designed to recreate the classic sound of a late 60's Marshall Plexi running at full-bore grind. Its carefully selected components allow the Rust Driver to faithfully perform this function with any amplifier, at any volume level. The result is a commanding guitar tone with a tight, thick bottom and an extremely low signal-to-noise ratio.
Specifications:
- Input Impedance: Approx. 1M-ohm
- Output Impedance: Approx. 100k-ohm
- Size: 115(L) x 64(W) x 30(H) mm (excluding knob, switches, and jacks)
- Weight: Approx. 260g (including a 9V battery)
The Rust Driver features a single knob that controls output level and gain, while 3 switchable EQ curves offer plentiful tonal options without compromising the guitar's sound. The pedal is designed to produce thick, throaty sound, regardless of pickup types, enhancing the vital frequency range for electric guitars to cut through the mix while maintaining the guitar's original tonal character.
The Rust Driver is an affordable, reliable, and portable alternative to the classic Marshall Plexi sound, making it suitable for a wide range of use-cases in both studio and live performance settings.
