DC Pedals DC Zen 2010s - Handmade ZenDrive!

Capture the smooth, dynamic, and "singing" overdrive tones of the legendary Hermida Audio ZenDrive, meticulously hand-built by DC Pedals!

This pedal is a high-quality, hand-wired version of the highly sought-after Hermida Audio ZenDrive, famous for delivering the smooth, liquid tones of a Dumble Overdrive Special amp. Built with love in Orlando, FL, it's in Good Condition with some surface wear on the enclosure (see photos for detail) but functions perfectly, providing an incredible, amp-like feel.

Why spend a fortune on a vintage unit when you can get the exact same circuit and world-class tone? This pedal excels for blues, jazz, fusion, and rock players looking for a dynamic, touch-sensitive low-to-medium gain overdrive.

The Sound: Smooth, Liquid, and Dynamic

The ZenDrive circuit is revered for its:

• Dumble-Style Tone: Delivers the sweet, round, and compressed lead tones often associated with players like Robben Ford and Larry Carlton.
• Touch Sensitivity: Responds brilliantly to your playing dynamics. Go from a clean breakup with a light touch to a rich, singing sustain when you dig in—it feels like a cranked tube amp.
• Unique Voice Control: The Voice knob is the secret weapon! It tailors the bass response and gain structure to work perfectly with your guitar and amp combination, ensuring you always cut through the mix without sounding harsh.
• Controls: Standard Volume, Gain, Tone, and the all-important Voice knob.

Key Features:

• Handmade/Boutique Build: Built by hand by DC Pedals, ensuring high-quality components and wiring for consistent, reliable performance and great tone.
• Analog Circuit: True to the original, providing a rich, organic sound.
• Power: Runs on a standard 9V DC power supply (negative tip, just like Boss/Truetone).

If you’ve been chasing that elusive, highly-praised ZenDrive tone, this handmade version is the perfect, road-ready solution!
