The Electro-Harmonix East River Drive is the company’s first pedal designed around a JRC4558 integrated circuit. Voiced to give an usable, nuanced mid-frequency boost, its controls include Volume, Tone, and Drive and the company says the pedal can be used in front of a clean amp or to push an already overdriven amp. Other features include true-bypass switching and AC or DC power capability. For more, go to www.ehx.com.
