Ask the fine folks at Fuzzrocious and you shall receive. The Dark Driving Distortion/Overdrive is back in action in V3 form, and with plenty of exciting new features.
All the lower gain tone you’re familiar with from the previous Dark Driving is packed into a smaller pedal enclosure with brand-new artwork. With this version, the light/dark mode is controlled by a toggle switch rather than a second footswitch, making the smaller pedalboard footprint possible. It now has both a gain and drive pot, making for more easily shapeable drive and distortion options. If you’re biased towards the V1 and V2 tones, don’t fret. The expanded tone control with its insanely wide sweep on V3 can bring you back to those, or help you find something entirely new EQ-wise. And if you prefer more head room, the DDv3 has you covered. It can run at 9-12V, so if you need to open up a little more before you breakup a little more, the choice is yours to make. Leave it on forever as your go-to-gain, or give the rest of your signal chain a little warm, crunchy push to liven things up a bit as needed. No matter how you choose to use it, the Dark Driving V3 fits in flawlessly with any rig.
