Any love for EHX east river drive.

Bought one this afternoon from amazon, at a good price. Wondered If anybody had any experience good or bad?

I think it's just a TS clone.

It seems it's a TS-a-like but with Analogman's input, if that appeals to you.

I had one to try. Nice enough but nothing special.

@markj let us know how it sounds when it arrives.

The price attracted me. I use a wampler euphoria that I love, It drives my amp not colouring it at all. The YouTube videos of the east river drive sound good and at £42 delivered Its worth trying out.

If I didn't already have the TS thing covered I'd probably have tried one out by now too. As you said, for that kind of money it's probably worth a punt.

I have one. Got it from @photek

Haven't really had a chance to properly play with it, although, next time out jamming, it'll be my lead boost........

Its a good pedal. As others have said it is a modded TS, does it's job well for a lot less than most of the competitors.

Wow I just got an email late last night from X Music (shop on the outskirts of Dublin I think), they have a sale on. Assuming I interpreted their sale PDF properly (it was terrible, just product codes and not really proper names of gear), they seemed to be selling an east river drive for 5 euros. Needless to say, it was gone before I made it to their website...

Just got the pedal and had around 20 mins with it. Very impressed. tried with my 2 Prs's and a telecaster. I'm liking It more with humbuckers. Will give a longer review when I've had the time to really play around with it.
