OVERDRIVE- MUSIC BOX PEDALS Lyla Drive- ...Timmy meets Arnold

$170.00 USD

MUSIC BOX PEDALS LYLA DRIVE
It all started for Rob Farrel with a Timmy schematic. What if? 
What if you through in a couple more clipping diodes and a generous sprinkling of pixie dust.
It has the Timmy layout of volume, drive, low and high EQ and a toggle.

CONCLUSION
Well it seems all rather bland at best. Another Timmy?
If you have the patience you can get a real Timmy Yes
it is a long wait but it is still is priced at $225.00 USD.

BIG but! The Lyra is NOT a Timmy! It does not sound like Timmy even at it's lowest setting. It has shinny metallic sheen and cuts like a razor. Every note of any chord jumps out with a shimmer and sparkle like no other pedal. You can switch to a very aggressive medium gain or even a near high gain that takes all this to a level that is hard to imagine. You simply NEED to hear it.

  1. When fed with a low-noise humbucker guitar signal and clean, isolated power, does this pedal retain a quiet hiss/hum background noise-floor when the Gain knob is maxed? I'm not talking about RF. Is the Lyla any quieter than the original Timmy v2?
