Plexi-Drive Deluxe - The ultimate Plexi tones through your rig...

Deluxe

The Plexi-Drive Deluxe, is a direct descendent of the Plexi-Drive Standard

but with a few upgraded features. Like the original, the Plexi-Drive

Deluxe's unique gain structure can cover everything from Vintage '68

style Plexi tones to the all out massive rock tones of a JTM-45®.

With the addition of an all-new active 3 band Bass/Mids/Treble EQ stack –

you can now have even more tonal control. With the bass boost option,

you can emulate the feeling of the low-end thump of a 4x12” cabinet (or

two) at the flick of a switch. The bass boost will allow you to dial in your

low end at lower volume gigs or at bedroom volume levels. Along with

the bass switch, we added a bright switch to add highs – which makes

changing from bright to dark guitars a breeze. The Plexi-Drive Deluxe

also features a one knob, pre-gain boost that is voiced like that "famous

overdrive with pronounced mids” – to help push your leads in to over-

drive.

The Plexi-Drive Deluxe will fill your Marshall® void and give you the

crunch, response, boost, and feeling that your rig begs for. Whether you

are playing sold out shows or rocking out by yourself – the Plexi-Drive

Deluxe will take your tone and allow you to create your own flavor of

rock!

To get the most out of your new pedal, you'll want to become very familiar with the controls. The Plexi-Drive Deluxe

has a straightforward control scheme, and doesn't take a great deal of time to understand, but there are some subtle-

ties to how it works its magic that should be explained. There is a volume (level), main gain (post gain), 3 band EQ and

boost (pre gain) - with the two switches (bass boost and bright boost) you can get almost any Marshall® tone through

your rig!

It is worth spending a little time playing with how the EQ reacts to differing gain levels as well as what effect the

switches have... It’s all good fun!

Volume: This control adjusts the output level of the Plexi-Drive Deluxe.

Bass: Adjusts the amount of bass applied to the effected signal. If you are using a Stratocaster® style, single coil guitar

rather than a humbucker loaded instrument, you may _nd you need more bass to “fatten” up the tone. When in the

fully counterclockwise position, the tone will be much thinner and brighter and when fully clockwise it will be fuller,

darker and heavier around the low end.

Mids: Adjusts the total amount of midrange that is applied to the effected signal. You have more control over how

much or how little you choose to dial in.
