Description

The vintage B.K. Butler Tube Driver is a legendary, hand-built vacuum tube overdrive pedal created by Brent Butler in the early 1980s. It is famous for its warm, singing sustain, dynamic touch-sensitivity, and use by iconic guitarists like David Gilmour and Eric Johnson.

Core Design and Circuit

• Starved-Plate Operation: Operates an internal 12AX7 vacuum tube at a low voltage (around 12V) rather than high amplifier voltages, allowing real tube distortion at lower volumes.
• 
  
• Control Layout: Typically features four main knobs: Tube Drive, High EQ, Low EQ, and Level/Output.
• 
  
• Housing: Recognizable by its classic beige/tan and black heavy-duty enclosure, often with an attached AC power cord on older vintage units.
