Ihave never been able to afford/acquire a Tube Driver and recently picked up an overlord in hopes of getting near that sound.Am going to modidy it to your specs and add bias control and go from there.Again Thank You for your great ear, knowledge, and designs and all the joy u have given to me personally by playing through your gear.(esp. People just don't realize how many great recordings have been made with your gear but I'm sure you do and that is something u must take great pride in and the imitators and plagarizers can not take from you. Thank You for your awesome designs and contributions to music history. I still have some of your rack gear from the 80's I have had since new and will never part with. I am a longtime fan of your designs and believe u were way ahead of the times in your work. Butler!

I took a look at various schematics with a view to modifying the Overlord to full-fill it's true potential:Īnd the newly updated Tube Driver itself (with the "Bias" mod):Īnd another version by Bajaman - The Real Tube Overdrive with a regulated power supply and simplified tone control: Now there are plenty of variations on this design from B K Butler himself, Chandler and Tube Works among others.
