{"product_id":"carl-martin-dc-drive-guitar-pedal","title":"Carl Martin DC Drive Guitar Pedal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Carl Martin DC Drive delivers the classic Carl Martin overdrive sound in a compact, pedalboard-friendly enclosure. Featuring a highly responsive circuit, it naturally cleans up with lighter playing and delivers more drive when you dig in. The pedal includes standard Level, Tone, and Drive controls to cover a wide range from subtle breakup to strong overdrive, alongside a Regular\/Fat switch providing two distinct voices: tight and classic or thick and saturated. Built for easy integration into any setup, the DC Drive runs on standard 9V DC power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Carl Martin revisited the Vintage Series, the goal wasn’t to reinvent the sound — it was to refine the format. DC-Drive keeps the familiar Carl Martin overdrive character, but in a more compact enclosure that fits easily onto today’s pedalboards, without giving anything up sonically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt its core, DC-Drive is built around a responsive overdrive circuit that reacts naturally to how you play. It cleans up when you ease off and pushes forward when you dig in, making it easy to stay connected to your guitar rather than fighting the pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe familiar Level, Tone, and Drive controls give you a wide working range, from subtle breakup to more assertive drive tones. But DC-Drive doesn’t stop there. We added a Regular \/ Fat switch to give the circuit two distinct voices. In Regular mode, the drive stays tight, clear, and classic — ideal for old-school overdrive sounds. Flip to Fat, and the pedal shifts into a thicker, more saturated response with increased gain and weight, better suited for more modern applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its compact size, DC-Drive is designed to feel stable and predictable under your hands and feet. It runs on a regulated 9V DC supply, making it easy to integrate into both simple and more advanced pedalboard setups.\u003cbr\u003e\nStraightforward, flexible, and built to be played — DC-Drive does exactly what a good overdrive should do, and nothing it shouldn’t.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic overdrive tones with FAT switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTone control for high cut shaping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain range up to +68dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact format, rugged metal housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue bypass design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 60 x 115 x 50 \/ 2.36″ x 4.53″ x 1.97″\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: 0.34 kg \/ 0.75 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifi\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecations\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput: 1M Ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput: 560 Ohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eS\/N ratio: 54 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTone: High Cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain max: +68 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: max. 20mA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower supply: 9 V DC (regulated), 40 mA minimum, 2.1 mm female plug, center negative (-)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupplier warehouse item.\u003c\/strong\u003e Please allow 3 business days handling time before dispatch, subject to supplier availability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carl Martin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46248448753708,"sku":"57315","price":249.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2970\/9956\/files\/dc-drive-1.jpg?v=1790223237","url":"https:\/\/roycemusic.com.au\/products\/carl-martin-dc-drive-guitar-pedal","provider":"roycemusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
