Pigtronix FAT Drive is just dripping with


touch sensitive overdrive that responds to every


nuance of your playing style. Multiple cascaded


gain stages enable the FAT drive to cover sounds


ranging from slightly overdriven to rich saturation,


all while retaining musical dynamics and the original


character of your instrument.





FAT Drive takes a futuristic analog approach to


create complex crunch tones using CMOS clipping


and a variable low pass filter for tone shaping.


Bringing the tone control all the way clockwise


takes this filter completely out of the circuit for total


transparency and robust low end. Rolling the tone


control back smooths out the highs, leaving ample


mid-range bloom and bottom end punch.





A Hi / Lo toggle switch brings additional versatility


to the FAT Drive's wide-ranging palette of overdrive


tones, altering the gain structure for enhanced crunch


and soaring leads. The FAT Drive features true


bypass switching and runs fine on standard 9-volt


power but ships with an 18-volt adapter for superior


headroom, clarity and overall output.
