Keeley Electronics Limited 1987 12AT7WC Tube Drive Twin Triode Dual Overdrive Effect Pedal

Supremely limited for something supremely special, the Keeley Electronics Limited Edition 12AT7WC Tube Drive is a short-run Keeley effect packed with decades of authentic tube tone. Carrying on Keeley's Tube Drive design balancing authentic preamp tube tone and Phat Mod overdrive character, this limited edition Tube Drive brings on a real 1987 Philips JAN 12AT7WC vacuum tube. Nearly forty years old, this authentic preamp tube pushes the effect forward for greater top-end chime, clarity, and mid-push.

Packed with authentic tube tone in every way, the Keeley Electronics Tube Drive overdrive is a masterful take on analog drive tonality. This big, bold overdrive from Keeley places a true-blue Philips 12AT7WC preamp vacuum tube at its heart for authentic punch and breakup at every level. Sharing space with Keeley's legendary Phat Mod overdrive, this vacuum tube preamp pedal offers a level of tube authenticity you're unlikely to easily find elsewhere.

The Keeley Electronics Tube Drive is just that. A classically outfitted Keeley featuring a Philips 12AT7WC preamp tube in its starring role, the Tube Drive gets right down to business for the kind of true, brash, hot-blooded analog drive tones you'd only get out of an amplifier. This tube tone stacks up with dedicated Level, Gain, and Tone controls to shape its character as you see fit – for full-chested preamp push, edge-of-breakup drive, or muscly dirt bordering on distortion. Everything here is accompanied by the pedal's second side – a Keeley Phat Mod overdrive. Swap between these two drive channels simply for different flavors of dirt on-the-fly.

As they are known to do, Keeley goes above and beyond with the Tube Drive. Selectable effect order between the tube preamp and Phat Mod overdrive allows for greater customization and effect routing with quick footswitch maneuvers. What's more, selectable true or buffered bypass via silent footswitches allow for deeper control over tone and playability. Everything here is powered up by standard nine-volt center-negative power supplies operating at at least 500 milliamps.

A masterful mix of analog drive approaches, Keeley tees up a 12ATWC to knock out of park.
