The RevivalDrive will sell very well, and for those that can't justify the price, life goes on without change. For those who do decide to buy one, there is something very special about it, that I can't quite put my finger on, but it's enough for me to sell a bunch of drive pedals in order to make way for one.

The best thing about the RevivalDrive from my early experiences with it is that it covers SO much ground. Not to mention the additional footswitch which will 'dime' the overdrive to full drive, and the mid hump boost which can be set to crazy detail. Within about 15 minutes I had gone through a Klon sound, clean boost, Tubescreamer, tweed sound, plexi tone, all the way through to almost fuzz territory with that left hand side. Not to even mention the 'ghost' knob, which is UNREAL.
Reasons include how OE got it so right with the Cali76, straight from the off.
This pedal has had three years RnD...
the clip of the Allman bros demo was enough (for me )
it looks like.... quality ( as well as being hand made in England )
and finally the controls look genuinely interesting / relevant / inspiring
I own a Cali76CD and it’s quite frankly impossible to say how great it is. I tried a Keeley pro and the Cali is so much better (1000x better than the boss it replaced)
As for the overdrive I would love to try it, then make a decision.
Sadly, and I mean sadly, my pedal buying days are possibly drawing to a close... and this is a very good pedal im sure, but man this is a LOT of scratch for a pedal.
At over £500, it looks mighty expensive next to a Helix or my awesome £1200 Redplate amp...
Yep, Ill probably order one...
looks to target the low gain plexi/JTM/Tweed/Deluxe type amp tones. It’s all very clean sounding. May be more of a pedal platform? I’m hoping Origin are working on something more JCM or higher.
the DI functionality is cool but no use for it in the current form factor.
Origin aren't working on a higher gain version. There may be a bass version next.
